Add Actions, Connections, and Artifacts Through an Inline Menu

As an alternative to dragging actions, trigger and invoke connections, and integration artifacts from the right navigation pane, you can hover your cursor over the + sign that is displayed between the nodes in your integration. When you click the + sign, a list of actions, connections, and artifacts available for adding to your integration is displayed. A search facility is also available.

To add actions, connections, and artifacts through an inline menu:

1. Hover your cursor over the lines between the nodes to display a + sign.
2. Click the + sign.
