Is it possible to call external APIs in Celigo hooks?

Hi,

Is there any way to call external APIs in JavaScript hooks in Celigo?
At least in the Celigo custom API builder?

We need to get a response from an API without creating an HTTP universal connection inside Celigo.

Refer to the sample JS code below.

const requestHelpers = {
    "HTTPRequestHeaders": {
        "accept": "application/json,text/javascript, /; q=0.01",
        "accept-language": "en-GB,en-US;q=0.9,en;q=0.8,es;q=0.7",
        "cache-control": "no-cache",
        "pragma": "no-cache",
        "sec-ch-ua": ""Not(A:Brand";v="8", "Chromium";v="144", "Google    Chrome";v="144"",
        "sec-ch-ua-mobile": "?0",
        "sec-ch-ua-platform": ""Linux"",
        "sec-fetch-dest": "empty",
        "sec-fetch-mode": "cors",
        "sec-fetch-site": "same-origin",
        "x-requested-with": "XMLHttpRequest",
        "cookie": "**** Cookie is predefined and never expires. The Cookie length is more than 1024 characters ****",
        "Referer": "https://externalURL.com"
    },
    "getClientList": "https://externalURL.com/getClients",
    "getAllDevices": "https://externalURL.com/getDevices"
}

async function getClientList(options) {
    const url = requestHelpers.getClientList;
    const response = await fetch(url, {
        method: 'GET',
        headers: requestHelpers.HTTPRequestHeaders
    });

    const data = await response.json();
    return {
        statusCode: 200,
        body: data
    };

}

We need to do a similar approach with Celigo.

Yes, but not how you've attempted to do it. You need to use a JSRT function, specifically the exports.run, imports.run, exports.runVirtual, imports.runVirtual, or exports.runVirtualWithPaging function.
