building-apis

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you turn existing Celigo export/import business logic into synchronous, structured HTTP APIs that external systems can reliably call.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Design REST endpoints (builder mode) that route incoming requests through Celigo routers, lookup exports, and import writes, then return success/fail/custom responses.
• Control request and response shapes using request transforms, response mapping, and response router selection to match your clients’ required schemas.
• Use script-mode APIs when logic is too dynamic to express declaratively, returning {statusCode, headers, body} from a single handleRequest function.
• Common scenarios: proxying authenticated requests via Celigo tokens, implementing lookup/write operations as a REST interface, and supporting multiple response shapes (e.g., success vs validation errors).

Quick Start

Tell the AI: “Using the building-apis skill, outline a builder-mode Celigo API that accepts POST /orders, routes requests to a validation branch and an imports branch, and returns a structured success response plus a structured fail response with correct status codes.”
