  • Chat Platforms: Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams
  • Social Media: Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn

Setting Up Integrations

Authentication Methods

Logic AI supports multiple authentication methods:

  • API Keys: Simple key-based authentication
  • OAuth 2.0: For secure delegated access
  • JWT: JSON Web Token authentication
  • Basic Auth: Username/password authentication
  • Custom Headers: For specialized authentication needs

Configuration Steps

  1. Navigate to Integrations: Access the Integrations section in your Logic AI dashboard
  2. Select Integration Type: Choose the type of integration you need
  3. Configure Connection: Enter necessary credentials and endpoints
  4. Test Connection: Verify the integration works correctly
  5. Save Configuration: Store the integration settings for use in workflows

Using Integrations in Workflows

Integration Components

Once configured, integrations appear as components in the workflow builder:

graph LR
    A[User Input] --> B[Process Input]
    B --> C[API Integration]
    C --> D[Process Response]
    D --> E[Database Storage]
    E --> F[Output to User]

Data Mapping

Map data between your workflow and external systems:

  1. Input Mapping: Define how workflow data maps to integration inputs
  2. Output Mapping: Define how integration responses map to workflow variables
  3. Transformation: Apply transformations to data before/after integration calls

Error Handling

Implement robust error handling for integrations:

  • Retry Logic: Configure automatic retries for failed calls
  • Timeout Settings: Set appropriate timeouts for external services
  • Fallback Paths: Define alternative workflows when integrations fail
  • Error Logging: Track and analyze integration errors

Advanced Integration Features

Batch Processing

Process multiple records efficiently:

  • Bulk Operations: Send multiple records in a single call
  • Pagination: Handle large datasets across multiple requests
  • Rate Limiting: Respect API limits with controlled request rates

Scheduled Operations

Automate integration tasks:

  • Polling: Regularly check external systems for updates
  • Cron Jobs: Schedule integration tasks at specific times
  • Event-Based Execution: Trigger integrations based on events

Custom Code Integration

For advanced use cases:

  • Custom Functions: Write code for specialized integration needs
  • Script Execution: Run scripts as part of your integration process
  • API Wrappers: Create reusable wrappers for complex APIs

Security Best Practices

  • Credential Management: Store sensitive information securely
  • Data Encryption: Encrypt data in transit and at rest
  • Access Control: Limit integration access to authorized users
  • Audit Logging: Track all integration activities
  • Regular Updates: Keep integration configurations up-to-date

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  • Authentication Failures: Verify credentials and token expiration
  • Timeout Errors: Check network connectivity and service status
  • Data Format Issues: Ensure correct data formatting for the integration
  • Rate Limiting: Implement backoff strategies for rate-limited APIs
  • Version Compatibility: Verify API version compatibility

Debugging Tools

  • Request/Response Inspector: View detailed API call information
  • Integration Logs: Access logs of integration activities
  • Test Mode: Test integrations without affecting production data
