Boomi

Learn about Couchdrop's native Boomi integration.

Introduction to Boomi with Couchdrop

Boomi is a leading iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) solution for enterprise users. iPaaS platforms like Boomi enable no-code integrations between internal systems - for example, connecting Salesforce with Zendesk.

Couchdrop is a Managed File Transfer (MFT) and SFTP platform designed to simplify secure B2B file transfers. It acts as a secure file transfer gateway for Boomi, allowing Boomi customers to receive files via SFTP, FTP, and other MFT protocols, and then pass them into Boomi for internal processing.

How Boomi works with Couchdrop

Boomi is configured in Couchdrop as an outbound connection. You link a Couchdrop folder to a Boomi process via a webhook endpoint. Any file uploaded into that folder is securely delivered to Boomi, which then triggers the process you have deployed.

Requirements

• Admin access in Couchdrop

• A Boomi process with a Web Services Server connector deployed to an environment

• The following details from Boomi:

  • Environment API URL

  • Endpoint (Simple URL Path)

  • Username and Token from Shared Web Server → User Management

Boomi has a 5 MB maximum file size limit for incoming files

Configuration Steps

Set Up the Process in Boomi

• Create and deploy a process with a Web Services Server connector

• Copy the Environment API URL, Endpoint, Username, and Token from your Boomi environment

Configure the Connection in Couchdrop

• Add a new outbound connection

• Select Boomi and provide:

  • A name for the integration

  • A folder name (creates a Couchdrop folder that sends files to Boomi)

  • The Boomi Environment API URL, Endpoint, Username, and Token

• Save the configuration

Files uploaded into the Couchdrop folder will now be sent automatically to your Boomi process.
