## Frequently asked questions

### Does Tray.ai connect to OpenStack?

Yes. Tray.ai connects to OpenStack through the HTTP Connector, which calls the OpenStack API directly. Any call the OpenStack API documents can run as a step in a Tray.ai workflow.

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

The OpenStack API uses an API key in a request header. You save it once as a Tray.ai authentication, and the HTTP Connector adds it to every request.

### Can I get a dedicated OpenStack connector?

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