  • Client Script: Perform validations to business data automatically using Client Scripts.
  • Relation Fields: Build connections between different jobs in workflow using Relation Fields. 
  • Server Script: Incorporate scripts to handle your backend management and retrieve data from different accessible end-points using Server Script.
  • Lookup Fields: Obtain a subset of options from available values in fields, tables, webhook API responses, or database query responses using Lookups. 
  • Tables: Store and organize data in an easy-to-interpret tabular format using Tables.  
  • Connectors and Credentials: Automate database connections between Orchestly and other third-party applications using Connectors. Store and access external database Credentials to ensure secure authentication.

        • Is there a way to request a password?

          We add customers info into the vaults and I wanted to see if we could do some sort of "file request" like how dropbox offers with files. It would be awesome if a customer could go to a link and input a "title, username, password, url" all securely and it then shows up in our team vault or something. Not sure if that is safe, but it's the best I can think of to be semi scalable and obviously better than sending emails. I am open to another idea, just thought this would be a great feature.  Thanks,

Yes, it's easy to 'Split as new Ticket', but I'd like something automated to respond to the user saying "this ticket has already been resolved and closed, please submit a new ticket". What's the best way to achieve this? Thanks, Ed
