Connect Century Tech or another REST API

Updated 19 October 2026 · For back office users

Century Tech, like many modern systems, has a REST API that returns JSON. This example reads completed Smart Initial Assessment sessions. You can follow the same pattern for other REST APIs by swapping in the details from their documentation.

Before you start

You'll need a Century API key. Check Century's API documentation for the current addresses and parameters, as these may change.

Steps

  1. Create the API Auth Profile

    Create an API Auth Profile with Auth Mode ApiKey, Header Name x-api-key, an empty Header Scheme, and a Credential Key such as CenturyApi. Save and publish, then ask Three 17 support to store your Century API key under that key.

  2. Create the Rest Data Source

    Create a Rest Data Source with Base URL https://connect.century.tech/api/v1 and pick the profile. Save, publish and select Test Connection.

  3. Create the REST Dataset

    Underneath it, create a REST Dataset with:

    • Resource Path: /smart-ia/sessions/completed
    • Items Path: data
    • Query Parameters, one per line:
      • endDate[gt]={aoLastRun:SuccessStarted}
      • sort[field]=endDate
      • sort[direction]=asc
    • Pagination Mode: Cursor, with Next Value Path pagination.nextCursor, Cursor Parameter cursor, Page Size Parameter limit and Page Size 100

  4. Choose the fields

    In Select, add a row for each field, with its path and a friendly name in As:

    • sessionId as SessionId
    • user.userId as UserId
    • user.emails[0] as Email
    • test.subject as Subject
    • result.level as Level
    • endDate as CompletedAt

  5. Preview the data

    Save and publish, then open the dataset on the AutomatedOn site and select the Preview tab to see real sessions.

What happens next

Use the dataset in a process, for example with a step that makes an API request to send each result to another system. Because of {aoLastRun:SuccessStarted}, each run only picks up sessions completed since the last successful run.
