Workflow API Integration

Axvero supports flexible integration with external workflow APIs, allowing organizations to automate and extend their business processes beyond the core platform. This approach replaces traditional webhooks with a more robust, configurable API integration model.

Key Concepts​

To set up workflow API integration, organization administrators should provide the following details:

  • Base API URL: The root URL for your workflow API (e.g., https://api.example.com/workflows).
  • API Key / Credentials: A secure API key or other credentials for authentication. These will be stored securely and used in request headers.
  • Custom Headers: Any additional headers required for your API integration (e.g., Authorization, Content-Type).

Axvero will use these details to connect and communicate with your workflow API for automation purposes. You do not need to provide these as JSON; simply fill out the configuration form in the organization settings.

Security Best Practices​

  • Always use HTTPS for API calls.
  • Store API keys and credentials securely.
  • Include authentication headers in every request.
  • Limit data exposure to only what is necessary for the workflow.
  • Log all API interactions for audit and troubleshooting.

Benefits​

  • Customizable: EaRamanach organization can connect Axvero to their unique workflow engine or business system.
  • Secure: API keys and credentials ensure only authorized systems can interact.
  • Scalable: Easily add or update endpoints and rules as business needs evolve.
  • Decoupled: Organizations maintain control over their external processes, while Axvero provides the event-driven triggers.

Typical Use Cases​

  • Triggering external approval or review processes.
  • Notifying third-party systems of status changes.
  • Integrating with custom business logic or workflow engines.
