Business value

Partners and developers will be able to unlock more connector functionality for customers using the connector.

Feature details

This feature will enable connector developers to use custom logic to send external requests and enable complex transformations. When building a connector, developers often want to provide a friendly experience for low-code makers. This requires the use of custom logic for many scenarios. So far, this has been the biggest platform gap for developers.

With support for C# based scripts, developers can use any custom logic in their connectors, lighting up many scenarios previously not possible. These scenarios include:

  • Support for the transformation of outgoing and incoming payloads
  • Providing utility actions
  • Making multiple API calls to provide better functionality
  • Providing a dynamic schema
  • Implementing logic for triggers
