(See Figure 3)

The Services screen contains a few tabs and buttons:

Figure 3: Services Screen

• + Create button (1)
• + Import button (2)
• Integrations tab (3)
• Computations tab (4)
• Autocomplete tab (5)
• Intermediate tab (6) 
• Communication tab (7)
• Resources tab (8)
• Webhooks tab (9)
• Deploy button (10)

Buttons Description 

• + Create - this button enables to create new services and resources.
• + Import - this button enables to import an existing service that was created by EasySend.
• Deploy - this button enables to deploy a selected service/services to an environment server (development or production).

Integrations Tab

Under this tab, you can create new Integration services or import existing ones. This type of service is used to integrate your digital processes with external apps, resources, and platforms.  For example, you can integrate your digital process with your core or CRM systems. The integration will enable the digital process and your systems to share and exchange data between them.

Computations Tab

Under this tab, you can create new Computation services or import existing ones. This type of service enables you to prefill fields with calculated values that are fetched from remote web services/resources in real time.

Autocomplete Tab

Under this tab, you can create new Autocomplete services or import existing ones. The autocomplete service helps digital process end-users fill out information faster by completing their inputs automatically, based on generated predictions.

Intermediate Tab

Under this tab, you can create new Intermediate services or import existing ones. An intermediate service can be used by other services. It can be added to other services as an additional step.

Communication Tab

Under this tab, you can create new Communication services or import existing ones. This service is used for communicating with digital process end-users. For example, integrating a digital process with an external provider for sending and receiving text messages.

Webhooks Tab

Under this tab, you can create new custom Webhook services. This service is will be used while creating a new Webhook.

Resources Tab

(See Figure 5)

Using the Resources tab you can create (1) the following resources:

Figure 5: Resources Screen

• Keys (2)
• Amazon Web Services (AWS) credentials (3)
• File Storage Server (4)
• Database (DB) Server (5)
• Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) Key (6)
• Salesforce (7)
• Payment (8)
• Dataverse (9)

Keys

(See Figure 6)

Key-based authentication is a more secure and encrypted method of authorization that allows a user to gain access to target resources with the help of secret keys that are stored and guarded in a secure location by the end user.  This resource can be used in the File Encode-Decode step within a service.

AWS Credentials

(See Figure 7)

When interacting with AWS, you use your AWS security credentials to verify your identity and whether you have permission to access the resources that you are requesting. AWS uses the security credentials to authenticate and authorize your requests. For example, if you want to download a protected file from an Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) bucket, your credentials must allow that access. If your credentials are not authorized to download the file, AWS denies your request.

File Storage Server

(See Figure 8)

A file storage server is responsible for the storage and management of data files. It enables users to share information over a network without having to physically transfer files. Using EasySend's platform, files that were uploaded while using a digital process can be sent to different locations using different protocols by creating resources and integrations.

DB Server

(See Figure 9)

This resource creates a DB server. This type of server uses a database application that provides database services to other computer programs or computers, as defined by the client–server model. Database applications available to select in EasySend are:

• MySQL
• PostgreSQL
• Microsoft SQL

PGP Key

(See Figure 10)

This resource creates a new PGP key. A PGP key is a public encryption key. It can be used to sign and encrypt emails and files. When you create a PGP key, a key pair having a public key and a private key is generated. You can share the public key with anyone who sends you encrypted messages or files, but the private key must be known only to you and used to decrypt received messages.
