Contentful integration
Contentful is a headless CMS allowing developers to create, manage, and distribute content across multiple channels and devices with an API-first approach
Connect Contentful to Xenition and work with it from chat, from an agent, or on a schedule — alongside every other app you have connected, in one workspace.
What you can do with Contentful
Ask in plain language and Xenition calls the right one:
- Activate Content Type — Activates (publishes) a content type in Contentful. Use this to make a content type available for creating entries. Requires the current version number for optimistic locking.
- Archive Asset — Tool to archive an asset in Contentful. Use when you need to archive an asset to remove it from active use without deleting it permanently.
- Archive Entry — Tool to archive an entry in Contentful. Use when you need to move an entry to archived status. The entry must not be currently published, and you may need to provide the X-Contentful-Version header matching the entry's current version.
- Archive Release — Tool to archive a release in Contentful. Use when you need to lock a release to prevent modifications. An archived release cannot be edited until unarchived. Requires the current version number for optimistic locking.
- Create App Signing Key — Tool to generate an app signing key for a Contentful app definition. Use when you need to create cryptographic keys for app authentication. Either provide generate=true to let Contentful create a key pair (returns private key), or provide a pre-generated public key in JWK format.
- Create Content Type — Tool to create a new content type in a Contentful environment. Use when you need to define a new content structure with custom fields. Content types define the schema for entries.
- Create Entry Task — Tool to create a task on a Contentful entry. Use when you need to create workflow tasks for collaboration on entries. Tasks can be assigned to users and are used for managing content review and approval workflows.
- Create Environment — Tool to create a new environment within a Contentful space. Use when you need to set up a new environment for content management, such as staging or production. Optionally clone from an existing source environment.
- Create Locale — Tool to create a new locale in a Contentful space environment. Use when you need to add support for a new language or regional variation to your content. Locales enable multi-language content management by defining which languages are available for translation. Only one locale can be set as the default locale per environment.
- Create Organizations App Definitions — Tool to create a new app definition in a Contentful organization. Use when you need to register a new app that can be installed into space environments.
- Create App Definition Action — Tool to create an action for a Contentful app definition. Use when you need to define actions that your app can perform, such as endpoint invocations or function calls.
- Create App Access Grant — Creates an access grant for an app definition to allow organizations to install the app. Use when you need to grant installation permissions for an app to specific organizations or all organizations (marketplace apps).
- Create Organization Invitation — Create an invitation to an organization in Contentful (alpha feature). Use this to invite new users to join an organization with a specified role.
- Create Organizations Security Contacts — Creates a security contact for a specific organization. Use when you need to add an email address to receive security notifications for the organization.

- Create Release — Tool to create a new release in Contentful. Use when you need to group entries and assets into a release for coordinated publishing or tracking. Requires at least one entity to be specified.
- Create Space — Creates a new space in Contentful. A space is a container for all content types, entries, and assets. Use this action when you need to set up a new workspace for content management. Each space is isolated and has its own API keys and environments.
- Create Delivery API Key — Tool to create a new Delivery API key for a Contentful space. Use when you need to generate new API credentials for accessing content delivery. The created key provides access to specified environments within the space.
- Create Asset — Tool to create a new asset in a Contentful space environment. Use when you need to upload files like images, videos, or documents. After creation, the asset must be processed before it's available, and you may need to publish it to make it publicly accessible.

- Create Entry Comment — Tool to create a comment on an entry in Contentful. Use when you need to add a comment to a specific entry. Returns the created comment with status 'active' by default.
- Create Extension — Tool to create a new UI extension within a Contentful space and environment. Use when you need to add custom field editors or sidebar widgets to enhance content editing capabilities.
- Create Scheduled Action — Tool to create a scheduled action for publishing or unpublishing entries/assets in Contentful. Use when you need to schedule an automatic publish or unpublish operation at a specific future time.
- Create Webhook — Create a new webhook in a Contentful space to receive real-time notifications about content changes. Use this action when you need to set up automated workflows that respond to events like entry creation, publishing, or asset updates. Webhooks send POST requests to your specified URL when matching events occur.
- Delete Asset — Deletes an asset by ID from a Contentful environment. Use this when you need to permanently remove an asset. Note: If Contentful rejects deletion for published or archived assets, you must unpublish first using the appropriate CMA endpoints.

Give an agent access to Contentful
An agent you create can use Contentful on your behalf and keep working while you do something else. Every action an agent takes goes through an approval gate first, so nothing touches your Contentful account without you agreeing to it.
