     "type": "nosql",
     "host": "your-database-host",
     "port": 27017,
     "database": "your-database-name",
     "apiKey": "your-api-key"
   }
   

Integrating with REST APIs

1. Connecting to External REST APIs

   • Steps:
     1. Go to the "DataSources" section in Wayvo.
     2. Click "Add New Data Source" and select the REST API type.
     3. Enter the API endpoint URL and configure the necessary headers and parameters.
     4. Test the connection and save.

   {
     "type": "rest",
     "endpoint": "https://api.external-service.com/v1/resource",
     "headers": {
       "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN",
       "Content-Type": "application/json"
     },
     "params": {
       "param1": "value1",
       "param2": "value2"
     }
   }
   

2. Fetching Data from REST APIs

   • Use the configured REST API data source to fetch data and bind it to your application components.
   • Example: Fetching user data from an external API.

   {
     "type": "fetch",
     "dataSource": "rest",
     "endpoint": "https://api.external-service.com/v1/users",
     "method": "GET",
     "headers": {
       "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
     }
   }
   

Integrating with SOAP APIs

1. Connecting to External SOAP APIs

   • Steps:
     1. Go to the "DataSources" section in Wayvo.
     2. Click "Add New Data Source" and select the SOAP API type.
     3. Enter the WSDL URL and configure the necessary SOAP headers and parameters.
     4. Test the connection and save.

   {
     "type": "soap",
     "wsdl": "https://api.external-service.com/soap?wsdl",
     "headers": {
       "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN",
       "Content-Type": "text/xml"
     },
     "params": {
       "param1": "value1",
       "param2": "value2"
     }
   }
   

2. Fetching Data from SOAP APIs

   • Use the configured SOAP API data source to fetch data and bind it to your application components.
   • Example: Fetching order data from a SOAP API.

   {
     "type": "fetch",
     "dataSource": "soap",
     "endpoint": "https://api.external-service.com/soap/orders",
     "method": "POST",
     "headers": {
       "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN",
       "Content-Type": "text/xml"
     },
     "body": "<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/' xmlns:web='http://www.example.com/webservices'><soapenv:Header/><soapenv:Body><web:GetOrders><web:CustomerID>12345</web:CustomerID></web:GetOrders></soapenv:Body></soapenv:Envelope>"
   }
   

Integrating with Third-Party Services

     "service": "sheets",
     "credentials": {
       "clientId": "your-client-id",
       "clientSecret": "your-client-secret",
       "refreshToken": "your-refresh-token"
     },
     "sheetId": "your-sheet-id"
   }
   

2. Connecting to Slack

     "channelId": "your-channel-id"
   }
   

Best Practices for Integrations

1. Secure Connections

   • Always use HTTPS to ensure secure communication with external services.
   • Store credentials securely and avoid hardcoding them in your application.

2. Handle Errors Gracefully

   • Implement error handling to manage integration failures gracefully.
   • Log errors and provide meaningful messages to users.

3. Optimize Performance

   • Optimize API calls to reduce latency and improve performance.
   • Use caching mechanisms where appropriate to minimize redundant requests.
