Workato 2024 Hackathon Winners
Every year, our business technology (BT) team hosts an internal Hackathon. Like our previous hackathon, this year’s event attracted hundreds of participants. And, just as exciting, many came from less technical backgrounds than that of a “traditional” automation builder. For example, 50% of our administration team participated, while 45% of our legal team partook.
The recipes and solutions are easy for people of all backgrounds to create and follow.
- Check the automation that uses AI to document your recipes.
- Check the Event Bot the team created to handle mundane and high-repetitive tasks for Marketing Events.
- Check our updated Deck Bot v2.0, which automatically localizes your slide deck into your desired language.
- Check a solution that helps you prepare better for your meetings by gathering information about your prospects before the calls.
- Check the automation that streamlines the Workato Accelerator installation within your workspace.
- Check out how Workato automation can help you generate all the actions needed for your Event: A program for the event is created in Marketo, the webinar is scheduled in Zoom, the appropriate sequences are added in Outreach, a campaign is created in Salesforce, and an event kit is populated in Google Drive.
Cyberark Conjur Secrets Manager SupportWe are extremely thrilled to announce support for Cyberark's suite of secret management products: Conjur Cloud, Conjur Enterprise, and Conjur Open Source!
What's New?
- Native support for 3 Cyberark Conjur Secrets Management Products
- Conjur Cloud.
- Conjur Enterprise.
- Conjur Open Source.
What can users do?
- Securely create connections on Workato without hardcoding credentials by referencing stored secrets.
- Connect Conjur to a running on-prem group (Conjur Enterprise / Conjur Open Source) for a full on-prem configuration.
- Call the clear_cache API to retrieve the latest secret versions if credential rotation is enabled on Conjur.
Why is this important?
Credentials are the key to creating connections on our platform, serving as the bread and butter of Workato. Support for utilising existing secrets from a secrets provider is often a requirement for customers with strict security and compliance requirements, as there is simply no workaround. This allows us to expand our potential customer base for customers who already use Cyberark's suite of secret management tools.
