CAPABILITY PROFILE

What the Certn integration exposes

The Certn Agent App exposes 10 provider-backed actions for security and productivity work. Its current contract lets an authorized agent retrieve one certn background-check case by uuid, retrieve one certn group by uuid, and retrieve one certn client portal user by uuid. These operations are called through Working Machines as typed capabilities rather than through browser navigation or copied UI steps.

A connection uses API key. Before execution, the agent can inspect the selected action, its required fields, declared scopes, and expected output contract. Provider credentials remain inside the Working Machines runtime; the calling agent receives the capability and its structured result, not the underlying secret.

For reliable operation, start with the narrowest action that satisfies the task, resolve stable provider identifiers before changing state, and validate the returned object or status after execution. Availability still depends on the connected Certn account, granted provider permissions, workspace policy, region, plan, and upstream API behavior.

PROVIDER-SPECIFIC WORKFLOWS

Jobs this Agent App can support

Inspect Get Case

Retrieve one Certn background-check case by UUID. Use this as a bounded discovery step, retain the returned identifier, and avoid expanding the read beyond the task's stated scope.

get_case

Verify with Get Group

Retrieve one Certn group by UUID. Compare the returned provider state with the intended outcome and preserve stable IDs or canonical links in the run record.

get_group

SAFETY BOUNDARY

Operate Certn with explicit limits

  • Authorize Certn with API key and grant only the provider access required by the selected actions.
  • The current action names appear read-oriented, but returned Certn data may still be sensitive and should be minimized before it enters model context.
  • Do not infer permission from catalog visibility. Workspace policy, connection identity, and upstream authorization still govern execution.
  • No provider scope string is declared on the sampled actions. Verify the connected account's actual permissions in Certn rather than assuming unrestricted access.
  • After a call, inspect the structured result and execution record before reporting that the Certn task completed successfully.

CONNECTION MODEL

API key

Certn API key sent as Authorization: Api-Key. Create and manage API keys in the Client Portal under Settings > Integrations > API Keys, as documented at https://centric-api-docs.certn.co/#authentication.

Working Machines stores provider credentials behind the execution boundary. An agent can use an authorized connection identity, but catalog discovery alone does not reveal OAuth tokens, API keys, or provider secrets.

EVIDENCE AND AVAILABILITY

Provider reference

Action names, input fields, authentication types, and counts on this page are generated from the Working Machines provider catalog. Provider behavior, quotas, object semantics, account eligibility, and regional availability remain governed by Certn.
