Product Spotlight

Custom Object Method Categories

We’ve made two key improvements to Custom Object Method Categories. Firstly, you can now use placeholder Steps in Templates for custom objects that cannot be defined in advance. These are replaced at the point the Template is installed, whether manually, through LAUNCH, or via a Marketplace. 

As well as the ability to define multiple Category Parameters when setting up a Custom Object Method Category in your Custom Connector.

Build an AI-Powered Document Assistant with Cyclr

In his latest video, Cyclr’s Technical Advocate Wilson walks through how to build an AI-powered Document assistant in Cyclr, using platforms like Google Drive, ChatGPT, Xero Accounting Software, and Mistral OCR. 

In this video Wilson is also using the Cyclr Custom Connector Toolkit to quickly create his own connector for Mistral OCR  – a newly released AI document interpreter released by Mistral AI.

Check out the full tutorial.

Power Composable Commerce with iPaaS

Composable commerce is an approach to building eCommerce systems where businesses can choose and assemble components to create a customized tech stack. Instead of relying on a single monolithic platform, it leverages best-of-breed components (like CMS, PIM, cart, payments, etc.) that can be independently developed, deployed, and replaced.

Composable commerce is modular, scalable, and designed for change — and it needs smart integration.
