service

whiteListedDomains

modules

Orchestly

type
When 'type' is "org", only an administrator can fill the configuration parameters on a first-come-first-serve basis.
Say, there are three administrators in a portal and if the first admin fills the config parameters, the other two will only be able to edit the parameters. When 'type' is "personal", every user in the organization has to fill the configuration parameters. Unlike the org type, these parameters will be unique for each user.
connectors
Connections allow the extensions to integrate with third-party applications using a one-time set up. Connections, once configured and authenticated, can commonly be used in all extensions. For example you have an ongoing task in your Zoho Projects portal and its corresponding ticket in Zendesk is mapped to this task . Whenever the task is updated or a comment is added to the task, the comment should be added in the Zendesk ticket as well. In the same way, if a resource updates the Zendesk ticket, it should reflect in the Zoho Projects' task.
In this case functions and triggers can be used to sync the Zendesk ticket whenever there is an update in Zoho Projects task but on the other hand when an update happens in the third party app (Zendesk ticket) then a web hook should be configured to sync that update to the task (Zoho Project). Connectors come handy for this purpose. Click here to see how to configure connectors for various services.
config
This key is used when you need customised inputs from the user. For example, the user's domain name in the third party service can be obtained using this key.
