Buildable vs Fully Custom Plugins

Hello,

As I saw mentioned previously, Build plugins are custom plugins that you create from scratch or customize to meet your specific needs . These require development work using Agent Studio.

 

My team has identified some Workday use cases that do not fall within those listed as build plugins currently. Are those buildable plugins the only ones we can create and customize, or is it possible to create an entirely from scratch plugin?

 

I’m asking generally speaking at this point.

 

Thanks, 

 

Todd

​@tt2  What “Build Plugins” are you speaking of?

Regardless, you can build plugins from scratch! I highly recommend taking a look at our docs

Thank you, Kevin! By Build Plugins, I meant that in the Marketplace, there are some plugins you can install and others that say “Build” when you click on them.

And then there are other use cases I can think of that aren’t listed. So based on your answer, I take it to mean that yes, we can build items from scratch that aren’t listed here, assuming we can establish the correct Workday connections for these custom use cases.

Correct. The sky is the limit to build whatever you want. You don't have to limit yourself to the marketplace. The marketplace has plugins that you can install and plugins that are being planned to be published.  Also, I believe, build redirects you to our Agent Architect that gives you guidance on how to build it yourself
