Create an integration

Go to Integrations, click the Configure New Integration button and select the API to integrate with.

APIs have different ways to authorize requests: OAuth, API key, Basic, custom. Nango abstracts away the difficulties of working with each one.

​

Test the authorization

If you don’t have one already, create a test account for the external API you want to integrate with.

On the Nango integration page, click “Add Connection” to test the authorization. Enter your test account credentials to authorize the API.

Once authorized, go to Connections to see the newly created connection. The “Authorization” tab contains the credentials necessary to consume the external API. These credentials are securelly stored and automatically refreshed.
