Automate Podio with Tray.ai
Add a new item, create a task and add a new app in Podio, and start a workflow when Podio sends “Item created”.
What can you do with Podio on Tray.ai?
Podio is a work management platform where teams build custom apps, spaces and workflows to track projects, records, tasks and conversations in one place. Tray.ai connects to Podio through the HTTP Connector, so your workflows can call the Podio API alongside the rest of your stack.
- When Podio sends “Item created”, add the new record to your CRM.
- Post each new comment to the project's channel in your team chat when Podio sends “Comment created”.
- Create a task for the account owner when a support ticket escalates in your help desk.
- Export items weekly to your data warehouse for reporting.

Set it up
Connect Podio to Tray.ai
Each step uses Podio's own API details, from its documentation.
Step 1
Sign in to Podio with OAuth 2.0
Set up an OAuth 2.0 authentication with the client ID and secret of an OAuth app you register with Podio. 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://api.podio.com as the base URL. Or paste a cURL example from Podio's API docs, and Tray.ai fills in the method, URL, and headers.
Step 3
Start with “Get an item”
It's one of 21 documented actions, under Items. The response comes back as data the next step can map into your other apps.
Step 4
Start workflows from Podio events
Give Podio the URL of a Tray.ai webhook trigger. “Item created” can then start a workflow, and so can 7 other events.
Give your AI agents Podio tools
Build an MCP server on Podio in Agent Gateway and choose which actions your agents can call. Every call runs with access control and an audit trail. How Agent Gateway works
- Add a new item
- Get tasks
- Get an app
- Get comments on an object
- Get hooks
- Get an item
- Update an item
- Delete an item
