Available Operations

Copy

The examples below show one or two of the available connector operations in use.

Please see the Full Operations Reference at the end of this page for details on all available operations for this connector.

Example usage - Listing contacts, Looping through the list and Getting each contact

Copy

Create a new workflow with a Manual Trigger, a Close connector, a Loop Collection and a second Close connector.

Select the Close connector, authenticate as above and choose the List contacts operation.

If you were to run the finished workflow, the log from a successful output would show that this operation returns a data array containing the contacts objects.

Then set the Loop Collection connector to Loop List and enter $.steps.close-1.data as the List in order to grab the above contacts one-by-one.

You will note from the output from List contacts that each contact object has an id output field. You can then, for each contact that is fed by the loop, grab the id and pass it into the second Close connector.

The Get contact operation is chosen and $.steps.loop-1.value.id gets the id of the contact from the Loop connector to enter it as the Contact to pull the contact from Close.

Once the workflow is set up, click 'Run Workflow' and then click on the 'Debug' tab to look through all the inputs and outputs of a successful run of the workflow.

In real life situations, you will likely be dealing with large numbers of records - dozens, hundreds or thousands. In this case you should make use of pagination tokens returned by the operation, and build a more complex loop as described in our pagination documentation.
