Summary

Kong Konnect has introduced the Konnect Flows Editor, an enhanced visual tool powered by Datakit, to streamline API orchestration by providing a graphical interface for designing workflows. This tool caters to teams that prefer visual representations over traditional configuration files, offering an intuitive way to build, understand, and collaborate on API workflows. The Flow Editor represents workflows as diagrams, making it easier for new team members to onboard, facilitating cross-functional collaboration, and allowing rapid prototyping of different orchestration approaches. It complements the existing Datakit plugin by allowing teams to visually design policy flows and data transformations, providing flexibility for organizations to choose the method that best suits their preferences and workflows. The Konnect Flows Editor will be showcased at the upcoming API Summit 2025, highlighting its potential to enhance API management through a visual approach.
