Hi, I’m currently trying to setup a simple workflow that is going to be used by users in my platform. I get the following error: Running workflows with official OAuth apps is not allowed.

Do I need to configure my own oauth client settings or is a paid subscription needed to build workflows with those integrations?

You need to create custom OAuth clients when running workflows for your users: Running workflows for your end users — Pipedream

Wait so for every app I want to use, I need to setup custom client credentials?

I want to achieve the following:

  1. User authenticates linkedin (or any other app) in my platform using pipedream
  2. Configure default workflows an AI agent can use
  3. Let the AI agent trigger a workflow on behalf of the user

Yep, to use Pipedream’s OAuth you have two options:

  1. Use our prebuilt tools directly from your agent
  2. Use Connect API Proxy
