Create magic with OpenAI and automations

Always looking for innovative ways to use ChatGPT in our work, we're thrilled to introduce OpenAI as one of our connectors!

This means you can now power all kinds of workflows with OpenAI’s AI models. We’re starting off with 5 new actions that you can use right away—and we’ll be adding more soon—including the ability to use the same model that powers the conversational ChatGPT.

Safely retrieve secrets and API tokens, with HashiCorp Vault

We’re excited to share that Workato now supports HashiCorp Vault secrets engine, a security feature many of our customers have been asking for.

HashiCorp Vault is an external secrets manager that lets you store and retrieve passwords and API tokens in a secure way. And trust us, this comes in super handy when you create or update a connection on Workato.

Here’s a quick guide on setting it up for your workspaces.

Publish and consume PubSub topics with APIs

We've just introduced APIs for PubSub. This means you can have 3rd party applications directly publish to and consume events from a PubSub topic, making it easier than ever to keep everything in sync.

Released

What’s new with connectors: April edition

Gmail and Google Calendar
Google has service accounts for apps to access Google APIs programmatically via OAuth 2.0. Use service accounts to make sure connections run even when permissions for individual users change.

SFTP/On-prem files/Sharepoint
Enjoy the option of storing empty files in your file storage solutions, now that file contents are optional for these connectors.

Workday
We had to fix a couple of issues to improve the experience with authentication, input and output schema. And in more exciting news, there's a new set of endpoints that lets you read and manage your Workday Drive documents in your recipes.

Outsystems
Now you can get more specific with your JSON filters when using the search records action, by using symbols like “=”, “>” or “<”.

Sharepoint
Manage your Sharepoint files and folders in your recipes, with new actions that allow you to copy file, move file and rename file or folder.  

SendGrid
SendGrid deprecated some endpoints like create/update recipient, search recipient and add recipient to list, so we’ve removed these actions to avoid any “403 forbidden” errors.

Pipedrive
Beefed up with 5 new actions, you can now update deals, update persons, get deal-related products, create notes and create activities.

Evernote
Support for the Evernote connector has been removed, since our customers have moved on to other note taking apps, and its usage has been low.

Workday’s multi-instance custom objects now supported

Our Workday connector now supports creating, updating, and retrieving not only single-instance custom objects but multi-instance ones too! This means you can attach more than one instance to a parent object, which is handy when you need to add, say, an employee's multiple COVID-19 vaccination records. 

Oh, and we've made these actions much more user-friendly too.

SAP connector is now SAP certified

Our SAP certification demonstrates that our connector is reliable, secure and efficient for our customers.

This gives organizations and their IT teams confidence that our integration does not pose risks of errors, data inconsistencies, nor security breaches.

Apr 13, 2023
Released

Longer timeouts for API requests

You can now increase timeout durations—from the default 30 seconds, up to 240 seconds for the endpoints that need it. Just note that this works only for endpoints created on the API platform.

Released

Better quality of service and stability with API throttling

API requests that exceed the workspace’s concurrency limit will no longer be rejected. Instead, when API requests spike, API throttling will come into play. This will delay the requests a little, depending on their size.

Released

Configuration wizard now available for custom actions

With a new configuration wizard, creating custom actions for connectors is now easier. It guides users through the setup—from testing endpoints, and generating schemas, to customizing error messages.

Released

What’s new with connectors: March edition

Picklist errors fixed
We had a little hiccup recently with the way we were handling dependent picklists. It caused 'Something went wrong' errors to pop up across a bunch of our connectors. But don't worry—we've already fixed the bug for all our connectors. 

Salesforce
We now offer a SOQL Filter query that lets you limit the platform events you receive and trigger the right workflows. So, you can focus on what matters most without getting bogged down by a flood of events. 

NetSuite
Our NetSuite connector just got a major upgrade to version 2022_2 of Suitetalk. That means you'll have access to all kinds of new fields and standard objects that come with the latest version. Plus, the connector is now officially "Built for NetSuite" Certified for NetSuite's upcoming 2023.1 release. 

ServiceNow
After many iterations to create the right experience, we're thrilled to announce that you can now download and upload attachments to ServiceNow.

SAP Concur
We just upgraded this to use V4 APIs, and have replaced some triggers and actions with new ones to help streamline your workflow. Follow our handy migration guide to make the transition nice and easy. 

SAP SuccessFactors
Our triggers for new and updated objects couldn't handle future-dated changes. But we've now added these fields called 'fromDate' and 'toDate' to both the regular triggers and the batch ones—so you can easily filter for changes.

Shopify
We've just released batch triggers for some Shopify objects, including customer, order, draft order, and product. So, if you're using any of these objects, take advantage of these batch triggers to design more efficient recipes for processing large volumes. 

OneDrive
This now comes with streaming capability, which means users can upload and download huge amounts of data in OneDrive. It's a game changer for businesses that rely on Microsoft apps, and automate data-heavy tasks with Workato. 

Webhooks
Our Workato Webhooks Connector now supports query parameters for incoming webhooks. This means you can now include custom query parameters in your webhook URLs, which will help you get even more specific with your data.
