Winbda API Connector
Overview
Designs and implements API integrations including authentication, request formatting, response parsing, and error handling.
Workflow
Step 1: Define the Integration
- API: Which service are you connecting to?
- Purpose: What data do you need or what action to trigger?
- Direction: Read data, write data, or both?
- Platform: Where is this running? (n8n, Make, Zapier, custom code)
- Frequency: One-time, on-demand, or scheduled?
Step 2: Map the Integration
[SOURCE] → [API Call] → [PROCESS] → [DESTINATION]
Step 3: Build the Connection
For each API call, document:
## API Call: [Name]
### Endpoint
`[METHOD] [URL]`
### Authentication
- **Type**: [API key, OAuth2, Bearer token]
- **Setup**: [How to get credentials]
### Request
**Headers:**
```json
{
"Authorization": "Bearer {{API_KEY}}",
"Content-Type": "application/json"
}
Body (if POST/PUT):
{
"field": "{{value}}"
}
Response
Success (200):
{
"data": { ... }
}
Fields to extract:
| Field | Path | Use |
|---|---|---|
| [name] | response.data.name | [purpose] |
Error Handling
| Status | Meaning | Action |
|---|---|---|
| 400 | Bad request | Check input format |
| 401 | Unauthorized | Refresh token |
| 429 | Rate limited | Wait and retry |
| 500 | Server error | Retry with backoff |
