Automate Egnyte with Tray.ai

Upload a file and create a folder in Egnyte, and start a workflow when Egnyte sends “File added”.

What can you do with Egnyte on Tray.ai?

Egnyte is a content collaboration and governance platform where companies store, share, and secure business files across cloud and on-premises storage. Tray.ai connects to Egnyte through the HTTP Connector, so your workflows can call the Egnyte API alongside the rest of your stack. API access comes through Egnyte's partner program or API plan, so you need approved credentials first.

  • When Egnyte sends “File added”, notify the project team in team chat.
  • Create a folder for each new client your CRM signs, ready for contracts and project files.
  • Upload a file when your e-signature tool returns a signed contract.

Set it up

Connect Egnyte to Tray.ai

Each step uses Egnyte's own API details, from its documentation.

Step 1

Sign in to Egnyte with OAuth 2.0

Ask Egnyte for API access. Once it's approved, set up an OAuth 2.0 authentication with the client ID and secret of an OAuth app you register with Egnyte. Sign in once and every step reads the token from there.

Step 2

Point the HTTP Client at the API

Add an HTTP Client step and use https://{domain}.egnyte.com/pubapi/v1 as the base URL. Or paste a cURL example from Egnyte's API docs, and Tray.ai fills in the method, URL, and headers.

Step 3

Start with “List folder contents”

It's one of 12 documented actions, under Folders. The response comes back as data the next step can map into your other apps.

Step 4

Start workflows from Egnyte events

Give Egnyte the URL of a Tray.ai webhook trigger. “File added” can then start a workflow.
