Adding a connection to your app

Connections allow UiPath^® Apps to integrate with external third-party services using Integration Service. This is similar to adding other integrations, such as Entities or Queues.

To add a connection to your app, follow these steps:

1. Before designing your app, go to Integration Service. The Connectors tab automatically opens.
2. You can either select a pre-existing connector or build a custom one using the Build your connector option.
3. Select the connector you want to add to your app.
4. To add the connection to your tenant, click the Connect to button.
5. In the new window, add the relevant credentials, or choose the option relevant to you. Select Connect.
6. Depending on the connection, you may be redirected to an external site requesting your consent to build the required permissions. Select Allow where relevant.
7. If the connection was successful, you should be returned to the Connections page in Integration Service. Your new connection should be visible in the table, with the Connected status.
8. Go to the app where you want to add a Connection.
9. Select Add any from the dropdown arrow next to Add control. Select Connection.
10. Select the tenant containing the connection you added in step 7.
11. Select the connection you wish to add to the app, then click Add.
12. The connection is now available in the Connections tab.

    You can immediately use the connection in your app.
