Developer Tools & IT

What the Ngrok connector can do

Representative actions

  • Create API Key

    Creates a new API key for authenticating with the ngrok API. This tool allows programmatic creation of API keys that can be used to access ngrok's API services.

  • Create Tunnel Credential

    Creates a new tunnel authtoken credential for authenticating ngrok agents. This authtoken credential can be used to start a new tunnel session. The response to this API call is the only time the generated token is available.

  • Create Endpoint

    Create a cloud endpoint on the ngrok account. Use when you need to set up a new cloud endpoint with custom traffic policies for handling HTTP traffic.

  • Create Event Source

    Add a new event source to an event subscription. Event sources define which types of events will trigger the subscription. Use this when you need to subscribe to additional event types for an existing event subscription.

  • Create Event Subscription

    Creates a new event subscription in ngrok. Event subscriptions allow you to be notified when specific events occur in your ngrok account. Use this when you need to set up webhooks or event-driven workflows for ngrok resource changes.
