What is the Workato SDK CLI?

It is a Ruby-based command-line tool used to develop, test, and sync custom connectors for the Workato platform from a local environment.

Can I use this skill to manage credentials securely?

Yes, the skill supports generating master keys and encrypting settings.yaml files to protect sensitive API keys and tokens during local development.

How do I deploy my local connector to Workato?

Use the 'workato push' command followed by your API token and connector title to synchronize your local code directly to the Workato platform.

How do I test my connector locally?

You can use the 'workato exec' command to run specific actions or triggers, or use the integrated RSpec framework to run comprehensive automated test suites.

What are VCR cassettes in this context?

VCR cassettes record your connector's HTTP interactions during a test run so you can replay them later, enabling deterministic testing without making live API calls.

API Development

Enables local development, testing, and deployment of custom Workato connectors using the Ruby-based SDK.

About

The Workato SDK CLI skill empowers developers to build and refine custom Workato connectors within a local environment. It provides a comprehensive suite of tools for executing actions and triggers locally, running automated RSpec tests with VCR integration for API mocking, and managing secure credential encryption. By bridging the gap between local development and the Workato platform through push/pull synchronization, this skill streamlines the connector lifecycle and ensures higher code quality before deployment.

Key Features

Bidirectional synchronization with the Workato platform via push and pull commands
Integrated RSpec testing framework for automated validation
Secure settings management with local encryption for sensitive credentials
0 GitHub stars
VCR cassette recording to mock API responses and ensure deterministic tests
Local execution of connector actions and triggers for rapid debugging

Use Cases

Developing and debugging complex connector logic without impacting production workflows
Recording and replaying API interactions to test connector behavior in offline environments
Building automated CI/CD pipelines for Workato connectors using GitHub Actions
