Invoke an existing import through the API

To invoke an import through the API, you’ll need to understand the basics and create an import. In the context of a flow, an import is a flow step that retrieves data from an application. You can think of an import as the source application that supplies the initial data at the beginning of a flow. Use the import API endpoints to run your import. You can also run an import through the JavaScript runtime module.

Requirements

To invoke an import, you'll need to create an API token at Resources → API token.

Important: Only account owners and admins with Developer mode enabled can create API tokens.

Invoke an import

1. Sign in to integrator.io (US|EU).
2. Navigate to the Home page and open your desired flow.
3. Open the import you want to invoke via API.
4. In the import panel, scroll down and expand the Advanced menu.
5. Highlight and copy the Invoke URL.

6. In your preferred API client (ex: Postman), set your API token as a Bearer token.
7. Use your Invoke URL to invoke your import. You will receive a synchronous API response.
