Overview

The API connector is a flexible, generic integration type that lets Go Autonomous communicate with any external system that exposes a REST API. Use it when there isn’t a dedicated connector for your system (like there is for Salesforce or SAP).

​
Set up an API connector

1

Open Connectors

Navigate to Administration > Company Settings > Connectors.
2

Add a new connector

Click the add button and select API connector from the connector type list.
3

Configure the endpoint

Provide the API connection details:
  • Base URL — the root URL of the external API.
  • Authentication — select an existing authenticator or configure credentials directly (API key, OAuth, or basic auth).
  • Headers — any custom HTTP headers the API requires.
4

Configure data mapping

Define how Go Autonomous should map its data model to the external API’s expected format, including field mappings and transformation rules.
5

Save

Save the connector to activate the integration.

​
When to use the API connector

The API connector is best when:
  • Your system isn’t covered by a dedicated connector (Salesforce, Microsoft, SAP C4C, etc.).
  • You need a lightweight integration that sends or receives data via REST endpoints.
  • You want to connect to an internal or custom-built system.
For systems with dedicated connectors, prefer those instead — they include pre-built mappings and business logic specific to each platform.
