How to extract header from custom connector

[sampath]

Hi,

I built a custom connector and it is working fine. Then I got other file upload requirements, but it didn't work with the custom connector's post action. So, I had to implement a Python script that can upload the file to API when manually providing an access token.

question is: Is there any way to extract the access_token or header information from the custom connector?

progress so far: I added custom action and it can returns the connection variable. but it only contain user_id, password, etc..

Is there anyone who can help on this?

Thank you

Hi @sampath 

This is Marlon from the support team.
Yes, there is a way to extract the access_token or header information from the custom connector.
You can use after_response method to extract the API call response headers: https://docs.workato.com/developing-connectors/sdk/guides/error-handling.html#after-response
