Is there a way to allow custom connector to use the custom oauth profile feature?

Hi @jiyu269 ,
As of now, Workato SDK connectors (custom connectors) do not natively support the use of custom OAuth profiles the same way that built-in connectors do (i.e., selecting an OAuth profile from the Workato UI)

Workaround (Best Practice):

If you want to mimic reusability, consider:
Using environment properties (e.g., {{environment.client_id}}) to separate secrets from code.
Creating a centralized recipe/function that handles token exchange if your use case is complex.
Creating a Managed Connector through Workato’s internal connector program if you need deeper OAuth profile support (requires engagement with Workato support).

Thanks and Regards,
