Connector not working in Desktop Studio

Hi, I have built a connector and it’s working great when I try it in the builder. However, when I use it in Studio Desktop I do not get a response and it just types out “null”.

Anyone with a solution or a possible cause?

Welcome to the community

can you please provide more details like the connector you are using …some screenshots of flow etc

cheers

@andzie,

Are you talking about custom connector you have build and that’s not working?

Thanks,

Thx, it’s a custom one that I have made to connect to an API. I have read somewhere that multiple people have a problem when using a custom connector they have built in the default tenant environment so I wonder if that could be the problem.

Yes, exactly. It’s working fine in the builder though.

@andzie

Try changing the tenant if you think so.

Also check once if these prerequisite steps are followed.

  1. Design Custom Connector
  2. Publish it
    https://docs.uipath.com/integration-service/automation-cloud/latest/user-guide/publishing-your-connector
  3. Design activities for it to be used in UiPath Studio.
    Integration Service - Activity designer
  4. The activities created in Step 3 will automatically available in Activities panel once you refresh your Studio Folder from Bottom right corner.

Activities, do I really need to design them to get a API response in Studio?

@andzie,

Follow this tutorial from 21.14

Thanks,

I guess that video is old, because the package Connector Builder is not available. I suppose the correct one is now instead “Integration Service Activities”?

Also the activities is different.

@andzie,

Yes, we no more require to install Connector Builder explicitly. Just directly use the Integration Service Activities.

Thanks,

Then I have done it as it should be done.

The strange thing is that even if I get the “null” response I see my API calls used in consumables.
