What can you do with Autom on Tray.ai?
Autom is a search results API that returns Google, Bing and Brave results, news, images, maps and shopping listings as structured JSON for SEO and research work. Tray.ai connects to Autom through the HTTP Connector, so your workflows can call the Autom API alongside the rest of your stack.
- Search Google News for your company name each morning and post new mentions to the comms team chat.
- Search Google Maps for local businesses in a region and add them as leads in your CRM.
- Search Google Shopping weekly for your products and log competitor prices to a spreadsheet.
- Connects through
- HTTP Connector
- Authentication

Set it up
Connect Autom to Tray.ai
Each step uses Autom's own API details, from its documentation.
Step 1
Save Autom's API key
Save the key as a Tray.ai authentication. The HTTP Client puts it in the request header, read from $.auth. The key stays out of the workflow and out of the logs.
Step 2
Point the HTTP Client at the API
Add an HTTP Client step and use https://api.autom.dev/v1 as the base URL. Or paste a cURL example from Autom's API docs, and Tray.ai fills in the method, URL, and headers.
Step 3
Start with “Search Google”
It's one of 14 documented actions, under Google Search. The response comes back as data the next step can map into your other apps.
Step 4
Hand it to an AI agent
Wrap “Get search autocomplete” and “Search Google in AI Mode” in workflows, and Tray.ai's Agent Gateway for MCP publishes them as governed tools Claude and other AI agents can call.
