Connections (integrations)
Connections store the credentials that workflows and services use to talk to other software, such as Slack, Gmail, HubSpot, Stripe, AWS, or your own databases. You set a connection up once and then reuse it in any workflow node.
Open Connections
- App menu → App Settings → Connections, or
- The key icon on the Workflows page, or
- Manage Connections inside a workflow node
What you’ll see
- A list of more than 140 integrations, each showing whether it’s Connected or Not connected (and how many authentication methods it supports, for example Airtable: 3 methods).
- Search integrations…
- Category filters: AI, CRM, ERP, IT, Communication, Custom, Developer, Finance, Other, Productivity, Trigger
Examples: ActiveCampaign, Agile CRM, Airtable, AMQP, Asana, Autotask, AWS, Baserow, Bitbucket, Bitly, Box, Brevo, Cal.com, Calendly, Chargebee, CircleCI, ClickUp, Clockify, Cloudflare, Coda, CoinGecko, and many more.
Email (SMTP)
Workflows send email through an SMTP connection that you set up. You’ll need these details from your email provider: the SMTP server (host), port, username, and password (many providers, including Gmail and Outlook, require an app password rather than your normal one). Add it like any other connection below, then pick it in the workflow’s Email node. See the example in Build your first workflow.
Add a connection
- Find the integration (search or filter).
- Click it and choose an authentication method, such as an API key or OAuth sign-in.
- Enter the details the service asks for, or sign in with your account.
- Save. The integration now shows as connected, and you can select it under Credentials in workflow nodes.
Tips
- Use a dedicated service account in the other system where you can, so the automation keeps working if someone leaves the company.
- If a workflow step starts failing with authentication errors, reconnect it here.
- Who can manage connections is controlled by the Connections permission in app roles.
