Connect Cloud adds OpenAPI connectivity
Connect Cloud now supports OpenAPI standards to easily connect to any no/low-code applications that support OpenAPI. OpenAPI is a popular standard API specification for connecting and reading data.
OpenAPI setup instructions
What can you do with OpenAPI?
- Improved performance with PowerApps integrations
API connections facilitate higher performance in PowerApps by enabling more frequent queries, thereby accelerating data access. - Reverse ETL to better enable your operations and analytics teams
OpenAPI offers greater flexibility for connecting to Salesforce, allowing you to work with custom fields more effectively than native connectors.
