API proxy endpoints

Workato’s API Platform enables you to create API proxy endpoints, which securely forward requests to external APIs. Proxy-based endpoints provide controlled access to external APIs, enabling you to manage security, transformation, and access within the Workato platform.

Proxy-based endpoints are grouped into API collections, which organize related endpoints to streamline access for users and applications.

You can access and manage proxy-based endpoints within an API collection by going to Platform > API platform > API collections and selecting an API collection that contains proxy-based endpoints.

Endpoints in an API collection

Refer to the Configure a new API proxy endpoint guide for detailed steps on configuring a new proxy-based API endpoint.

API proxy transformation

Proxy transformation enables you to modify API requests and responses to align with the requirements of both clients and target APIs. Transformations handle mismatched schemas, adjust headers, and manipulate request or response bodies.

Refer to the API proxy transformation guide for detailed steps on configuring transformations.
