How to integrate Instapaper in automation workflow?
3 simple steps to make your Instapaper connected with other apps in automation workflows on WEXTL. Up to 10 minutes integration set up.
STEP 2
Connect Instapaper
When prompted, authorize access to Instapaper in WEXTL once. Instapaper credentials are encrypted and never shared with WEXTL. Authorization will be reused in any future API calls [3].
WEXTL wants to integrate with your Instapaper account. Approve?

How Instapaper connects and integrates with WEXTL
Save and approve your credentials once — WEXTL® stores authorization information encrypted and reuses the authentication whenever Instapaper app is called in workflows. That allows your marketing automations to run without your attention, per defined schedule [7]. Explore documentation [6] for a detailed list of fields that Instapaper supports.
The following table illustrates what fields Instapaper integration require during authorization flow inside our workflow builder [4].
Video slide demonstrates how Instapaper is connected in WEXTL builder [4].

|---|---|---|
UsernameRequired | text | — |
PasswordRequired | password | — |
Connect Instapaper to popular apps on WEXTL
Enter a name of the other app you want to sync with Instapaper below. Click on selected app to explore integration options with Instapaper. If the app you search for is not available in WEXTL yet, you can use HTTP node [10] instead to integrate it directly.
Example automation with Instapaper integration
Select Add an URL action from Instapaper - this will be a starting point in your automation. Whenever event happens in Instapaper, workflow will start [7] from Add an URL node.
Search for Make an API Call, connect it as the next step of integration sequence. You can use filters between Add an URL and Make an API Call, so only important data pass from Add an URL to the next step. WEXTL gives you full control over the process of Instapaper automation. All parts of workflow are visible on the canvas [4].
Instapaper on WEXTL has 2 modules for combining marketing automations. Explore Instapaper documentation for more.

WEXTL is an AI-first visual canvas. The platform allows you to describe automation in plain text — and AI will wire nodes for Instapaper inside the workflow builder [4].

There are absolutely no limits of what you can build.
