What are Jinba Flow Connectors
Jinba Flow is an external workflow service that can integrate with Jinba App. When you connect a Jinba Flow workspace to Jinba App, the flows published in that workspace are installed as connectors and can be used from chat.
Jinba Flow Workspace List
Connected workspaces are displayed in the “Jinba Flow” tab of the Connector Management screen (“Jinba Flow Workspaces”). You can search the list and sort it by “Default” or “Most installed”. Each workspace card displays the following information:Connecting a Jinba Flow Workspace
There are two ways to connect a workspace.Connect with API Key

Click 'Connect with API Key'
Click the “Connect with API Key” button at the top of the Jinba Flow tab. The “Connect to Jinba Flow” dialog opens.

Paste the API key into the “Jinba Flow API Key” field. You can find the key in the Jinba Flow workspace settings page (“Go to Jinba Flow Settings” link).

Click “Connect with JWT” on the card to complete the integration without an API key.A workspace connected with an API key that also has JWT access can be switched with “Migrate to JWT Authentication” in the card menu. The tool run history is kept.

- Is the flow published in Jinba Flow? Only published flows are installed as connectors (“This workspace has no connectors. Try refreshing.”)
- Has the workspace been refreshed since the flow was published?
- For JWT connections, has your Jinba App workspace been granted access in the Jinba Flow “JWT Access Rules”?
