We recently launched the public preview of Custom Connector feature in Application Integration that lets you onboard any OpenAPI (3.0 and above) compliant service as a custom connector, and then access your service in your integrations.
The custom connector feature is useful in the following scenarios:
- Custom connector would allow creation of many connections to the data store in a simplified way in similar lines to other connectors
- Built-in connectors aren’t available in Integration Connectors for a data source or service that you want to connect.
- Built-in connectors available in Integration Connectors, but they don’t meet your requirements.
How to Get Started with Custom Connectors
- Go to Application Integration, and then click Custom Connectors → Create
- Enter the connector details, and then click Create.
The custom connector is now created.
- Create a connection for the newly created custom connector, and then use the connection in an integration.
-
Create a connector task and configure the connection that you created in the previous step.
-
Choose the desired action, and do the required mapping in the data mapper.
Note: The API paths defined in the OpenAPI specification appear as actions.
- Publish and then execute your integration.
Refer to the Demo Video for more details.
Voila!, you are all set to access your backend from the integration!
