Prerequisiti
Le istruzioni di setup complete sono incluse nel connettore stesso (visibili nello store quando lo selezioni). Le variabili d'ambiente richieste sono:
HELPSCOUT_ACCESS_TOKEN
Step 1 — Ottieni le credenziali
helpscout.com/mailbox-api).
Setup:
- Sign in to Help Scout → Manage → Apps → My Apps → Create My App.
- Pick app type:
- Personal Access Token (single-user): get a token from your profile → API Keys → Personal Access Token. Token expires after 2 days — refresh needed.
- OAuth2 App (multi-user / longer-lived): standard OAuth2 client-credentials or auth-code flow.
- Set
HELPSCOUT_ACCESS_TOKENto the access token.
Authentication: Authorization: Bearer ${HELPSCOUT_ACCESS_TOKEN}. Tokens expire — your orchestrator handles refresh.
