Creating Connectors

Set up a Connector to automate your QA flows and simulations from external tools.

Creating a Connector

1. Navigate to the Connectors page.
2. Click Create Connector.
3. Select the platform: Timer, GitHub, Slack, Jira, or Teams.
4. Provide the required credentials for your chosen platform (API key, token, or endpoint URL).

Adding scheduled tasks

Each connector can have multiple scheduled tasks. To add a task:

1. Open your connector and click Add Task.
2. Choose the target: a QA Flow or Simulation.
3. Set the schedule:
   • Hourly — Runs once per hour.
   • Daily — Runs once per day at a specified time.
   • Weekly — Runs once per week on a specified day.
   • Monthly — Runs once per month on a specified date.
   • Custom — Define a cron expression for precise scheduling.
4. Enable or disable the task as needed.

You can add as many tasks as you need to a single connector. Each task runs independently on its own schedule.

Viewing task history

Each connector shows a history of its task executions. Use this to:

• Confirm tasks ran at the expected times.
• Check whether runs completed successfully or encountered errors.
• Navigate to the full results of any run.

Tip

Use Timer connectors for nightly regression testing. Pair with GitHub connectors to run QA on every pull request — together, they catch issues both on a regular cadence and before code ships.
