Overview
API Groups play a crucial role in organizing and managing API, grouping them according to their access patterns to streamline user interactions with APIs.
For example, a group of Salesforce endpoints configured for use by the Sales team should be organized into an API Group.
Each automation or process within your system can be transformed into a dedicated API, which gets executed whenever the API is called.
