Perplexity

Perplexity's Agent API answers a question by running a small research loop — searching the web, reading pages, optionally calling your own functions — and returns the answer with the sources it read.

Authentication

  • API key

Actions

Generic API request. Call any Perplexity API endpoint on this connection, for the case where no shipped action covers it yet. The connection supplies the base URL, the authentication and the egress route, so only the path, query and body are yours to fill.
