Common API Connections
The systems your agent can connect to - and what each connection makes possible.
Table of Contents
Most teams using Custom API Actions are connecting to systems they already run their business on. This article lists the most common ones, grouped by category, with a one-line description of what each connection enables and a link to the API documentation you will need to set it up.
Before you start, read Creating a Custom API Action for the setup process. This article is a reference for what to connect, not how to connect it.

If the system you need is not listed here, it can almost certainly still be connected. Most software built in the last ten years has a REST API. Check your platform's developer documentation - look for terms like "API reference", "REST API", or "developer docs" - and use those endpoints to set up a Custom API Action. See Creating a Custom API Action for how to do it.
If your system supports MCP, that gives your agent an even deeper connection. See Connecting a Verified MCP Server and Adding a Custom MCP Server by URL.
