A simple guide to getting started with Selfint.

Start small, test early, monitor executions and keep your integrations organised.

1

Choose a process with clear value

Pick something repetitive and easy to validate.

2

Define the input

Decide whether it starts from webhook, schedule, email, queue or API.

3

Prepare the data

Use mappings and simple rules to make the output ready for the target system.

4

Test with realistic examples

Validate the behaviour with sample payloads or files before production.

Name things clearly

  • Use names that explain the workflow objective.
  • Do the same for connections, credentials and file presets.

Split responsibilities

  • Avoid oversized workflows when you can break them into stages.
  • Cleaner integrations are easier to operate.

Track executions

  • Check status regularly.
  • Use reprocessing and DLQ with care.

Use AI with a clear goal

  • Ask AI to extract, classify or structure data.
  • For sensitive decisions, combine it with guard rails and human review.

Important nuance in the current state

  • File upload, download and reprocessing exist in the backend with their own permissions.
  • The file processing presets shown in the UI are currently stored in the user's browser rather than on the server.
