Resource types

The Orvanta Hub hosts one more resource category beyond scripts and flows: resource types (typed connection schemas).

Resource types

Section titled “Resource types”

A resource type is a typed schema for a connection — the fields Orvanta needs to talk to a specific database, API, or provider, so a script or flow can request “a Postgres connection” instead of hand-rolling connection parameters. The Hub’s resource-type catalogue spans:

  • Databases and infrastructure — PostgreSQL, MySQL, MS SQL Server, S3, SMTP
  • AI/LLM providers — Anthropic, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, DeepSeek, Google AI, Groq, Mistral, OpenRouter, Together AI, AWS Bedrock
  • Authentication primitives — API key auth, AWS OIDC, Basic HTTP auth, signature auth
  • Other integrations — GitLab, Shopify, RSS, JSON Schema, and more

When a script or flow you fork depends on a resource type you don’t have yet, add it from the Hub’s resource-type catalogue and fill in your own credentials — the schema is shared, the values never are.
