Connecting app accounts

Learn how to use the 'Perform app connection workflow' action in APIANT form apps to let users connect third-party app accounts within automation workflows, including connection validation and error handling.

A form app can perform the workflow to connect an app account, same as is done in the automation editor's "Connections" screen Adding an app connection.

Use the Human Interaction app's "Perform app connection workflow" action:

The "Perform app connection workflow" action must be preceded and followed by forms.

Typically the preceding form will give the end user information about the forthcoming app connection worklow about to be performed and the follow-up forms will handle error handling and validation of the connection.

The System app's "Does account have app connection" action should be used to check that the app connection was actually made:
