What does the API connector’s access_type=offline
do? I understand the technical concept 1, but I am trying to understand what the API Connector’s setting does. Can I use that to build API workflows with it?
Some context:
I am trying to connect to Zoho CRM’s v2 API. I am able to connect to it when I using a front-end application.
Now I’m trying to build API workflows with it. Something to the tune of:
- Bubble app receives an external trigger
- gets info from Zoho
- checks Bubble database
- updates Zoho
Is that possible? Can the “super-admin” who runs the APIs use the token I used to first authenticate the API Connector? Or would I have to build something similar to what @pierreantoine built 2, save that token somewhere, and then refresh the token with each workflow run?
