We believe that enabling users to more easily +create connectors is a more scalable and resilient approach to maximizing the quality of the user experience. \ No newline at end of file From ca6fd7450f4396af012853613b4a1757ae30449c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Abhi Vaidyanatha Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2022 13:00:56 -0800 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Add to SUMMARY.md --- docs/SUMMARY.md | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/docs/SUMMARY.md b/docs/SUMMARY.md index 34ff335e9cf59..6a4f6e759893a 100644 --- a/docs/SUMMARY.md +++ b/docs/SUMMARY.md @@ -76,6 +76,7 @@ * [Google Workspace Admin Reports](integrations/sources/google-workspace-admin-reports.md) * [Greenhouse](integrations/sources/greenhouse.md) * [Harvest](integrations/sources/harvest.md) + * [HTTP Request (Graveyarded)](integrations/sources/http-request.md) * [HubSpot](integrations/sources/hubspot.md) * [Instagram](integrations/sources/instagram.md) * [Intercom](integrations/sources/intercom.md)
