Celigo’s API Builder is a low-code tool that simplifies API creation and management through a visual, drag-and-drop interface. Designed for scalability, it helps teams accelerate API delivery while maintaining control and consistency.

As part of Celigo’s May 2025 release, the API Builder has been updated with a redesigned interface and several functional improvements.

Quick demo

The enhancements to the API Builder align with the recent Flow Builder update and are designed to make building and managing APIs easier, faster, and more intuitive, without changing core functionality.

What’s new

Updated UI improves readability and layout

The API Builder features a modern interface with updated canvas elements, step designs, and icons. The cleaner layout makes it easier to scan and organize API structures at a glance.

Simplified step management

Step interactions have been streamlined through a dedicated three-dot (kebab) menu. This menu consolidates tools like resource removal and step actions, keeping the canvas clear and focused.

Consistent tool and hook access

Transformation tools like preMap hook, mapping, postMap hook are now located in a consistent bottom bar. This change keeps the focus on API structure while making essential tools easy to access.

Smarter branching with improved visibility

Branching is now more intuitive, with the ability to unmerge branches directly at the merge point. Hover text has also been updated to clearly describe each available action, making complex flows easier to manage.

Refined drag-and-drop interactions

Drag-and-drop performance has been enhanced to feel smoother and be more responsive.

Start building with more clarity and control

The API Builder updates enhance clarity, reduce visual noise, and streamline critical actions, making it easier for developers to design and manage APIs.

Whether you’re managing complex integrations or building APIs to expose core business data, the updated API Builder gives you the control and clarity to move faster. These improvements are just the beginning — they are designed to support your growing use cases and evolving integration strategies.
