API Integration

API integration nodes play a critical role in connecting MEVA with external services and data sources. This node facilitates seamless communication between MEVA and various APIs, enabling the retrieval or manipulation of information from external systems.

When a user's request requires data or functionality not directly available within MEVA, the API integration node is triggered to interact with the relevant API endpoints.

This node has the following properties:

1. URL

2. Method

3. Content Type

4. Data

5. Headers

6. Async Request

7. Post Prompt

The API Integration node functions similarly to Postman, serving as a powerful tool to manage and automate API interactions within workflows. This node enables seamless communication between different software systems by allowing users to send HTTP requests and receive responses directly within their development environment.

Just like Postman, the API Integration node supports various request types, including GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE, along with the ability to add headers, parameters, and body data.

An async request in an API call is a method of communication between a client and a server where the client sends a request to the server and continues executing its tasks without waiting for the server to respond immediately.

By integrating this node, we can easily connect data that is not configured within MEVA thereby connecting MEVA with external services and data sources.
