Hey team, I noticed that a lot of the API documentation still links to developer.bettercloud.com should there be feature parity with the new “integration center”? Specifically I’m wondering about pre-request scripts…have they been deprecated for BC API calls? I can’t find a place to create one

Hey @gillenb, yes all of these live in the Integrations Center now. You can create them via the Extensions section: https://screenshots.bettercloud.com/NQuD12rx

and then tie them to an action via: https://screenshots.bettercloud.com/mXuB6k5d

Ah okay great. Thanks for that. The API docs mention that I can execute a pre-req script when calling the Execute Action API. Is that possible as well? Do you know what the value of the BC-Transform-ID would be in this case?

Yep! The BC-Transform-ID would be the ID of the Pre-Request

so when running the action, it would first run the pre-request based off the ID you pass in and then run the action based on the data passed via the callback

@jb.lovell let me know if I missed anything 🙂

Cool good to know this is still supported. Thanks @mikestone-bettercloud. So I’m assuming in order to create a pre-request I need to first create a dummy integration? In this case, I’m not connecting BC to any external service. Instead I’m passing data into BC with an API call and I want to handle the incoming data with a script

Yep, that’s right. You’ll need to create a dummy integratio
