connector-call-test
Execute connector calls with real input parameters to test functionality and verify results using actual data.
Instructions
#Test a Connector Call
Execute a connector call with provided input parameters for testing purposes. This allows you to test connector calls with real data and see the results.
Parameter Usage:
Each parameter requires a "name" (the field name) and a "value" (the actual data)
Parameter names must match the connector call's defined parameters
Values can be any JSON value (string, number, boolean, object, array). The connector call specifies the expected input data type. Important: In case you miss properties in the result, check whether a datatype other than Any is assigned as output data type and whether validateOut is set to true - in this case values will be filtered to fit the datatype.

Implementation Reference
- src/tools/connector-tools.ts:314-355 (handler)The handler function that implements the core logic of the 'connector-call-test' tool. It fetches the connector call's input parameters, matches them with provided test values (or uses constants), retrieves data types, builds a test request, calls the Simplifier client's testConnectorCall method with tracking, and formats the response as success or error with result or error details.}, async ({ connectorName, callName, parameters }) => { return wrapToolResult(`test connector call ${connectorName}.${callName}`, async () => { const connectorParameters = (await simplifier.getConnectorCall(connectorName, callName)) .connectorCallParameters .filter(cparam => cparam.isInput) const testParameters: ConnectorTestParameter[] = await Promise.all(connectorParameters.map(async cparam => { const dataType = await simplifier.getDataTypeByName(cparam.dataType.name) const value = parameters.find(p => p.name === cparam.name)?.value || parameters.find(p => p.name === cparam.alias)?.value || cparam.constValue return { name: cparam.name, constValue: cparam.constValue, value: value, alias: cparam?.alias, dataType: dataType, transfer: value !== undefined, } satisfies ConnectorTestParameter; })) const testRequest: ConnectorTestRequest = { parameters: testParameters }; const trackingKey = trackingToolPrefix + toolNameConnectorCallTest const result = await simplifier.testConnectorCall(connectorName, callName, testRequest, trackingKey); // Format the response nicely if (result.success) { return { success: true, message: `Connector call '${callName}' executed successfully`, result: result.result, }; } else { return { success: false, message: `Connector call '${callName}' execution failed`, error: result.error || result.message || "Unknown error", }; } }); });
