Can I Call An External Api From A Rule

Yes. Tadabase can call external APIs through Pipes, our built-in integration layer. A Pipe is a reusable connection to an outside service that defines the endpoint, authentication, request, and response mapping in one place.

Once a Pipe is set up, you can run it as a Pipe Action from many places in your app, including:

• Record Rules and Table Rules
• Action Rules and Submit Rules on forms
• Scheduled Tasks
• Workflows as a step in a larger automation

Pipes can pass field values from your record into the request and capture the response back into your record, so you can both push data out and pull data in. Pipes work with REST APIs, including services that require OAuth, API keys, or custom headers.
