Custom Integrations

Learn how to create and manage custom integrations to connect your agents with external services and systems.

​
Custom Integration Overview

Custom integrations allow you to extend your agent’s capabilities by connecting to any external service or system through APIs, webhooks, or other integration methods.

​
Integration Types

API Integration

  • REST APIs
  • GraphQL
  • SOAP services

Webhook Integration

  • Event handlers
  • Callbacks
  • Notifications

Database Integration

  • SQL databases
  • NoSQL databases
  • Data warehouses

Service Integration

  • Cloud services
  • SaaS platforms
  • Enterprise systems

​
Building Custom Integrations

1

Plan Integration

Define integration requirements
  • Identify endpoints
  • Plan data flow
  • Define schema
2

Implement Connection

Build integration logic
  • Create client
  • Handle auth
  • Map data
3

Add Error Handling

Implement error management
  • Validate data
  • Handle failures
  • Add retry logic
4

Test Integration

Verify functionality
  • Unit tests
  • Integration tests
  • Load tests

​
Integration Structure

interface IntegrationConfig {
  name: string;
  type: 'api' | 'webhook' | 'database';
  auth: {
    type: 'oauth' | 'apikey' | 'basic';
    credentials: Record<string, string>;
  };
  endpoints: {
    base_url: string;
    routes: Record<string, string>;
  };
}

class CustomIntegration {
  constructor(config: IntegrationConfig) {
    this.config = config;
    this.client = this.initializeClient();
  }

  async connect(): Promise<void> {
    await this.authenticate();
    await this.validateConnection();
  }

  async execute(operation: string, data: any): Promise<any> {
    try {
      return await this.client.request(operation, data);
    } catch (error) {
      this.handleError(error);
    }
  }
}

interface DataMapper {
  toExternal: (data: any) => any;
  fromExternal: (data: any) => any;
  validate: (data: any) => boolean;
}

const mapper: DataMapper = {
  toExternal: (data) => transform(data),
  fromExternal: (data) => normalize(data),
  validate: (data) => validateSchema(data)
};

​
Implementation Examples

class APIIntegration extends CustomIntegration {
  async getData(endpoint: string, params: any): Promise<any> {
    const response = await this.client.get(endpoint, { params });
    return this.mapper.fromExternal(response.data);
  }

  async updateData(endpoint: string, data: any): Promise<void> {
    const mappedData = this.mapper.toExternal(data);
    await this.client.post(endpoint, mappedData);
  }
}
