I find humor that a product like this exists.

Not because it isn’t useful (to be honest it looks decidedly useful as an API aggregator service) but the fact that one of its main selling points is for “AI”.

Yet, if we had AI, it would be able to build these integrations itself

AI building the integrations is the approach we are taking at the moment, to the extent that you can store credentials like API keys and Oauth and then make the AI aware of these via a variable like ${googleAPI.SECRET}.

These credentials can then be use in the API node (where the AI can write a custom curl) or the run code component (where the AI can write custom python or js code to make an HTTP request).

Can it automatically update themselves based on changes to the source API? Can it detect ahead of time if APIs have changed? How about understanding the API requirements?

I encourage anyone who is curious to try to build an AI to get an approved client ID / secret from Google to access end user's gmail accounts. Most tier-one apps, such as Google, Zoom, Shopify, etc require a formal application process, third-party security reviews, and much more.

I think my point went over the head here, so to speak.

The fact is “AI” isn’t building these integrations because they aren’t capable. They’re capable of generating some sandbox code, if anything, but full scale integration, that updates itself as APIs change etc?

It’s simply not happening, because they don’t actually reason, because they lack actual intelligence

I tried. Wasn't even doing that much AI stuff. I spent 9 months building a product that is dead on arrival because they refuse to approve it.

I moved on to other things.
