gRPC

gRPC is an open source, high performance Remote Procedure Call (RPC) framework from Google.

Integrations and Connectors

AgilePoint NX integrates in these ways with gRPC:

  • Activities in Process Builder
  • Access tokens

Activities in Process Builder

You can use out-of-the-box activities for gRPC to execute actions in process-based apps.

An activity is a functional unit, or task, in a process-based app. Activities that integrate with a third-party system provide access to the API functionality for that system in a simple, point-and-click, form-entry format. This means that you can easily leverage APIs without writing code.

  • gRPC Service

For more information, refer to the gRPC Service activity in Process Builder.

Access Tokens

You can create access tokens for gRPC.

An access token is a secure object that stores an endpoint (usually a URL) and authentication credentials to connect to a service or technology. Often this is an external or third-party service, like Salesforce or SharePoint, but access tokens can also connect to an AgilePoint NX enviornment, local database, or other types of technologies. Once an access token is created, app designers can simply select and reuse it, rather than entering the credentials each time they are needed.

For more information, refer to Access tokens for gRPC Service.
