Integrations enable agents to interact with external services, APIs, and platforms seamlessly, extending their capabilities to work with your existing tools and systems.
Overview
The Integrations primitive provides a unified interface for agents to connect with external services, from SaaS platforms to custom APIs. Rather than building custom connectors for each service, Agentbase provides pre-built integrations and a framework for creating custom ones. Integrations are essential for:- Service Connectivity: Connect to popular platforms like Slack, GitHub, Salesforce, etc.
- API Access: Interact with any REST API or web service
- OAuth Management: Handle authentication flows automatically
- Rate Limiting: Built-in rate limit handling and retry logic
- Error Handling: Graceful degradation when services are unavailable
- Data Synchronization: Keep data in sync across multiple systems

How Integrations Work
When you enable integrations for an agent:- Authentication: Agent authenticates with service using API keys or OAuth
- Discovery: Agent discovers available actions and endpoints
- Execution: Agent calls service APIs to perform actions
- Response Handling: Processes responses and handles errors
- State Management: Maintains connection state and credentials
- Rate Limiting: Automatically throttles requests within service limits
Secure Credentials: API keys and OAuth tokens are encrypted at rest and never exposed in logs or responses.

Rate Limiting
- API Limits: Respect third-party API rate limits
- Automatic Throttling: Agentbase handles rate limiting automatically
- Burst Protection: Prevents exceeding burst limits
- Cost Management: Track API usage to manage costs
Connection Pooling
- Persistent Connections: Reuse connections across requests
- Connection Limits: Configure max concurrent connections
- Timeout Management: Set appropriate timeouts

Troubleshooting
Authentication Failures
Authentication Failures
Problem: Integration fails with auth errorsSolutions:
- Verify API key is correct and not expired
- Check OAuth token hasn’t been revoked
- Ensure correct scopes are granted
- Verify service isn’t experiencing outages
- Check for IP whitelist restrictions
Rate Limit Exceeded
Rate Limit Exceeded
Problem: Getting rate limit errors from serviceSolutions:
- Enable automatic retry with backoff
- Reduce request frequency
- Implement request batching
- Use caching to reduce API calls
- Consider upgrading service tier
Integration Timeout
Integration Timeout
Problem: Requests timing out before completionSolutions:
- Increase timeout limit
- Check network connectivity
- Verify service isn’t slow/degraded
- Consider breaking into smaller requests
- Use background processing for long operations
Webhook Not Receiving Events
Webhook Not Receiving Events
Problem: Webhooks configured but events not arrivingSolutions:
- Verify webhook URL is publicly accessible
- Check webhook secret matches
- Ensure correct events are subscribed
- Verify firewall/security rules
- Check service webhook logs
