Building skills from files

A great value that you get from Orchestrate is the ability to build skills that anyone can use. You can build your custom skill by importing an OpenAPI file into Orchestrate.

After you build a skill, you must enhance and publish it to the catalog for use in any skill set on your tenant.

You can import skill files in JSON or YAML format. Make sure that your skill file is less than 50 MB.

To build skills from files:

1. From the menu , select Skills and apps.
2. On the Skills and apps page, click Add skills.
3. Choose From a file to import an OpenAPI file.
4. Drag files or click to upload your OpenAPI file.
   • If an error appears, click View details to get more information.
5. Click Next.
6. All the skills in your OpenAPI are listed. You can add the listed skill only when it shows a Ready to add status.
   • If the status Not ready to add appears, expand the skill and analyze the error information provided in Issue List.
7. Click the checkbox next to the selected skills to add the skills from the OpenAPI file.
8. Click Add. You see a notification when the skill is successfully imported.

You can now see your newly built skill on the Skills and apps page. However, the skill is not yet published; it needs to be enhanced and then published.
