# Boomi

## 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

{% hint style="warning" %}
Boomi has a **5 MB maximum file size** limit for incoming files
{% endhint %}

## 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.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.couchdrop.io/connections/connect-ipaas/boomi.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
