To use external services in your workflows, you need to configure at least one provider. A provider is a connection to an external system that Flowker can interact with. To add a provider:
1
Go to the Providers page and click the + New Provider button.
2
The Add Provider form will open. Fill in the fields:
  • Name: a descriptive name to identify this provider configuration (e.g., production-payment-gateway).
  • Description (optional): a description about the provider and what it does.
  • How do you want to connect? Choose the connection type:
    • Connect a Lerian provider: select a provider from the Lerian catalog. Fields for the connection appear after you select it. The platform provisions the credentials of the Midaz ledger, CRM, Fees and Identity providers. Tracer and Auth need their authentication settings. The HTTP provider requires Allowed hosts.
    • Add your own API: connect an external API from its OpenAPI spec. Select an uploaded OpenAPI spec, and optionally set a Base URL (leave it blank to use the spec’s server URL) and the authentication settings. Connecting your own API covers uploading the spec and calling its operations from a node.

Review the configuration and click Add Provider to save the provider.
The connection type is chosen at creation and cannot be changed later. Editing a provider keeps its original type.
After creation, the new provider appears in the providers list with status Active. Workflow nodes can then reference it.
