Connecting to Vestaboard

Create an auth config

Use the dashboard to create an auth config for the Vestaboard toolkit. This allows you to connect multiple Vestaboard accounts to Composio for agents to use.

1

Select App

Navigate to Vestaboard.

2

Configure Auth Config Settings

Select among the supported auth schemes of and configure them here.

3

Create and Get auth config ID

Click “Create Vestaboard Auth Config”. After creation, copy the displayed ID starting with ac_. This is your auth config ID. This is not a sensitive ID — you can save it in environment variables or a database. This ID will be used to create connections to the toolkit for a given user.

Connect Your Account

Using API Key

Tools

Executing tools

To prototype you can execute some tools to see the responses and working on the Vestaboard toolkit’s playground

Python
