## Overview

Contently is a content platform for regulated industries, pairing content strategy and compliance review with a vetted network of freelance writers and experts. Tray.ai connects to Contently through the HTTP Connector, so your workflows can call the Contently API alongside the rest of your stack. API access comes through Contently's partner program or API plan, so you need approved credentials first.

## Challenges Tray.ai solves

### Keeping Contently credentials out of logs

A raw API call usually means pasting a key or token into the request, where it ends up in step inputs, logs, and screenshots.

**How Tray.ai helps:** Store Contently credentials once as a Tray.ai authentication and reference them from the HTTP Connector. Tray.ai masks authentication values in logs, so the secret never shows up in a step's input or output.

### Going from the Contently API docs to a working call

Translating an example request from API docs into a workflow step means copying the method, URL, headers, and body by hand.

**How Tray.ai helps:** Paste a cURL example from the Contently API docs into the HTTP Connector and Tray.ai fills in the method, URL, headers, and body for you.

### Handling files and non-JSON responses

Not every API answers in JSON. Some return XML, files, or binary data, or expect a multipart upload.

**How Tray.ai helps:** The HTTP Connector parses JSON and XML responses, returns files you can pass to the next step, and sends multipart form data for uploads.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does Tray.ai connect to Contently?

Yes. Tray.ai connects to Contently through the HTTP Connector, which calls the Contently API directly. Any call the Contently API documents can run as a step in a Tray.ai workflow. API access comes through Contently's partner program or API plan, so you need approved credentials first.

### How does Tray.ai authenticate with Contently?

The Contently API uses OAuth 2.0. You save it once as a Tray.ai authentication, and the HTTP Connector adds it to every request.

### Can I get a dedicated Contently connector?

Contently runs through the HTTP Connector rather than a dedicated connector. If your team wants one, the Tray.ai connector SDK can build a dedicated Contently connector from the Contently API.
