Our large ecosystem of software as a service (SaaS) connectors enables you to connect apps, data, and devices in the cloud. Examples of popular connectors include Salesforce, Office 365, Twitter (X), Dropbox, Google services, and more. Connectors allow the underlying service to talk to Microsoft Power Automate, Microsoft Power Apps, and Azure Logic Apps.
Types of connectors
We offer a wide variety of ready-made (prebuilt) connectors, but sometimes you might want to call APIs, services, and systems that aren't available as prebuilt connectors. To accommodate different needs, you can choose your connector type.
There are two types of connectors:
Prebuilt: Predefined connectors that can be used without you making modifications. They address automating commonly used business process scenarios.
Custom: Function-based connectors that you build to support your tailored scenarios.
