Developer Setup & API Usage
Self-Hosting (Docker)

cd activepieces

Activepieces is available as a Docker image and via Helm charts for Kubernetes deployments. Dev and staging environments are free on self-hosted instances with $0 per execution — no metered billing regardless of run volume.
Building Custom Pieces
The platform uses a TypeScript-based SDK to create custom integration modules ("pieces"):
import { createPiece, PieceAuth } from '@activepieces/pieces-framework';
export const myPiece = createPiece({
displayName: 'My Integration',
auth: PieceAuth.SecretText({ ... }),
actions: [...],
triggers: [...],
});
Key Platform Capabilities
- Webhooks & API triggers — expose flows as HTTP endpoints or consume external webhooks natively.
- AI Agent configuration — define agent instructions, bind tools (pieces), set human approval gates, and configure agent memory directly in the flow builder.
- SSO & SCIM — integrate SAML 2.0 identity providers and auto-provision users via SCIM for enterprise deployments.
- Audit Logs & RBAC — full activity logging and role-based access control scoped to flows, connections, and admin functions.
- REST API — manage flows, runs, and connections programmatically via the Activepieces REST API.
