Setup

npm i ai @openai/agents @nangohq/node
This example uses the Node SDK, a lightweight wrapper over Nango’s REST API. The same flow works in any language by using the API reference.
Requirements:
  • A Nango account with a Hubspot integration configured and the whoami action enabled.
  • An OpenAI account.

​
Usage

Example of a basic tool that calls an external API (Hubspot): 
import { Agent, run, tool } from "@openai/agents";
import { Nango } from "@nangohq/node";

export async function runOpenAIAgentsAgent() {
  if (!process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY) {
    console.log("Missing environment variable: OPENAI_API_KEY.");
  }

  const nango = new Nango({ secretKey: process.env.NANGO_SECRET_KEY! });

  const userId = "user1", integrationId = "hubspot";

  // Step 1: Ensure the user is authorized
  console.log("🔒 Checking API authorization...");
  let connectionId = (await nango.listConnections({ integrationId, userId })).connections[0]?.connection_id;

  // Step 2: If the user is not authorized, redirect to the auth flow.
  if (!connectionId) {
    const session = await nango.createConnectSession({
      allowed_integrations: [integrationId],
      end_user: { id: userId },
    });

    console.log(`Please authorize the app by visiting this URL: ${session.data.connect_link}`);

    const connection = await nango.waitForConnection(integrationId, userId);
    connectionId = connection!.connection_id;
  }

  // Step 3: Send a prompt to your model with tool definitions
  const agent = new Agent({
    name: "Hubspot Agent",
    instructions: "You are a helpful assistant that can access Hubspot data.",
    tools: [
      tool({
        name: "who_am_i",
        description: "Get the current user info.",
        strict: true,
        parameters: {
          type: "object",
          properties: {},
          required: [],
          additionalProperties: false,
        },
        async execute() {
          // Step 4: Execute the requested tool with Nango.
          return await nango.triggerAction(integrationId, connectionId, "whoami");
        },
      }),
    ],
  });

  console.log("🤖 Agent running...");
  const result = await run(agent, "Using the who_am_i tool, provide the current user info.");

  console.log("✅ Agent retrieved your Hubspot user info:", result.finalOutput);
}
You can let agents or models introspect available tools and their specifications by calling this endpoint. Your model can then automatically decide which tool to call.
