Hello,  
I have installed API connector and it was working fine.  
Today while calling from Workflow\>plugins: none of the plug-ins are visble.  
I tried removing the plug-in and re-installing, but it doesnt show up in the work flow.  
Any one had similar problem?  
How to resolve this please?  
Thanks

You need to create an API in the plugin, set the type to ‘action’, then it’ll show in that section.

Without screenshots, no idea what ‘doesn’t work’.

Thank You @lantzgould . That pointed me in the right way. I got the API working with POST.

Two things, make sure:  
Use As: **Action**  
and **POST**

You dont need to have it set to post. Thia depend of the API call.  
Set as action and initialized are the two conditions
