Custom Connector Parameters
Custom Connector Parameters
Custom connector parameters allow you to override or extend the integration's default connector configuration on a per-connection basis. These are developer-provided values that customize how the connector behaves for specific connections.
Use Cases
Common use cases for custom connector parameters include:
- Custom OAuth scopes for specific connection needs
- Dynamic environment selection if you want to programmatically decide whether to use sandbox/prod environment without asking user.
- Having different versions of connector behavior for different connections that don't require user input.
Important Notes
- Custom connector parameters are developer-provided, not user-editable fields
- They are stored with the connection and used for all API calls through that connection
- They take precedence over the integration's default connector parameters
- They are optional - connections work without them using default integration settings
Method 1: Using openNewConnection()
When you want to open the connection UI with custom connector parameters:
await integrationApp.integration("hubspot").openNewConnection({
allowMultipleConnections: true,
connectorParameters: {
scopes: ["contacts", "deals", "companies"], // Custom OAuth scopes
},
})
Method 2: Using connect()
For programmatic connection creation with custom parameters:
const connection = await integrationApp.integration("hubspot").connect({
parameters: {
// User-provided connection parameters
apiKey: "user-api-key",
},
connectorParameters: {
// Developer-provided connector customizations
scopes: ["contacts", "deals", "companies"],
},
})
Method 3: Backend connection (no front-end SDK)
For backend-to-backend integrations or when not using the frontend SDK:
