API Automation

The Infraon API Automation app allows you to integrate and trigger third-party APIs directly from the Workflow Automation module. Once installed, the app provides a central point for managing API-based workflow actions, supporting authentication types such as API Key, Token, and Username–Password.

All API actions triggered from workflows are executed through this app, ensuring a consistent and controlled automation experience.

Workflow Automation

After installation, the App Integration card appears as an action block inside workflow configurations.This allows you to integrate external APIs into workflow steps.

Authentication Types

You can select and configure APIs using:

• API Key-based authentication

• Token-based authentication

• Username–Password authentication

Configurable Inputs

For each selected API, you can:

• Enter authentication credentials

• Add custom parameters

• Configure request headers

• Map API inputs to workflow data if required

Once configured, the workflow will trigger the API through the API Automation app when executed.

API Response Handling

Category	Details
JSON Responses	If the API returns application/json, the system automatically parses the response into JSON for further use.
Other Content Types	For responses such as **text/plain, text/xml,**or other types, the system does not attempt JSON parsing. The response is processed in its native format.
Invalid JSON Handling	If an API claims to return JSON but the payload is invalid, the system stops parsing and shows a clear error message to the user.
