Skip to main content
A source is a website your agents connect to. Provide a URL, and Deck handles the rest. If a human can use it, Deck can automate it. Sources belong to your organization and can be shared across agents. Your “Hilton” source works for both a reservations agent and an expense report agent.

​
How sources fit in

Sources are the “where” of Deck. Connections authenticate a user to a source. Once connected, tasks execute against that source through the connection. There is no coupling between sources and agents. If two agents need to connect to the same website, use the same source. This avoids duplication and makes it easy to find all connections for a given site.

​
Creating a source

Sources can be created from the Dashboard or through the API.
