Overview

The Nango Proxy is Nango’s authenticated request gateway for external APIs. You send requests to Nango using the same HTTP method, path, parameters, and body as the target API. Nango resolves the provider, injects credentials, executes the request, and returns the response.

​
How it works

Send an HTTP request via Nango’s Proxy 
const res = await nango.post({
    endpoint: '/external-endpoint',
    integrationId: integrationId,
    connectionId: connectionId,
    data: { ... }
});
