What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the friction of calling third-party APIs by handling managed credentials and passthrough billing for you.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Managed Connector Access: Use approved connectors for search, browser automation, media generation, speech, and document workflows.
  • Broad Task Coverage: Pull web results, fetch and scrape pages, generate audio or images, create SVGs, and extract structured information from documents.
  • Practical Example: Ask for live search results, then fetch the relevant pages and turn the findings into a report or media artifact without setting up each API separately.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to use the external_apis skill with the connector you need and return the result in a format you can use directly.

FAQPage Schema
How do I call external APIs for web search and browser automation without managing credentials?

You can call external APIs for web search and browser automation without managing credentials by using a system that provides managed connector access. This approach handles per-service authentication automatically, allowing you to fetch and scrape pages directly.

Can I generate media and text-to-speech audio through external API integration?

Yes, you can generate media and text-to-speech audio through external API integration. The system supports media generation workflows, returning media URLs or parsed result bodies directly without requiring you to set up individual API keys.

What is the best way to extract structured information from documents via external APIs?

The best way to extract structured information from documents via external APIs is to use approved connectors for document parsing. This method allows you to retrieve and process structured data directly without handling the underlying service authentication.

Do I need to set up separate API keys for social data retrieval and web search?

No, you do not need to set up separate API keys for social data retrieval and web search. The system uses automatic passthrough billing and managed credentials, removing the friction of per-service authentication setup entirely.

How do I parse returned result bodies and media URLs from external APIs?

To parse returned result bodies and media URLs from external APIs, you specify connector-specific request paths and methods. The system executes the call and provides the parsed result body or media URL for direct use in your workflow.

Are there limitations when using external APIs with automatic passthrough billing?

A limitation of using external APIs with automatic passthrough billing is that you must use approved connectors and require connector-specific request paths and methods. You cannot use arbitrary unapproved external services.
