In this video, I show you how to build a custom UiPath connector from scratch using UiPath Integration Service and the Connector Builder in Automation Cloud. We connect to a third-party REST API, set up authentication, test the connector, publish it, and use it directly inside UiPath Studio.

Integration Service
That’s not what “Ask the user” does. It does not ask the user every time you run your process. It makes it so you enter that value when creating the connection instead of having it hard-coded in the connector.
This is the “create connection” screen from a custom Pega connector I created, and you can see how having “Ask the user” set to Yes moves those parameters to the connection screen:
So now we have one connector (named Pega), and from that connector we created two connections with different Base URL, Token URL, Client ID, and Client Secret (one for dev and one for stage)
Note that to do this, you have to set the Base URL in the connector to a variable then create that variable in the Parameters.
