connectors-list-available

connectors list-available

[!NOTE] Requires the airbyte-agent CLI on PATH. Install via brew install airbytehq/tap/airbyte-agent or see the project README.

List the connector templates available to install in this account. Each template has a name (e.g. salesforce, hubspot) that you pass to connectors create --json '{"name": "<name>"}'.

[!IMPORTANT] Always pass parameters as --json '{...}' (even when the payload is empty: --json '{}'). Agents should not use per-parameter flags.

Usage

airbyte-agent connectors list-available --json '{}'

When to use

Always run this before connectors create to discover the exact template name to use. Template names are stable identifiers — do not guess them.

Workflow

airbyte-agent connectors list-available --json '{}'
airbyte-agent connectors create --json '{"workspace": "my-workspace", "name": "salesforce"}'

Filtering output

[!IMPORTANT] When you already know which fields you need, always pass --fields. Unfiltered list responses waste context window on data you will discard.

Use the global --fields flag to trim the response. Both forms work because list responses are wrapped in {"data": [...]} and the CLI auto-broadcasts row-level paths:

airbyte-agent connectors list-available --fields id,name --json '{}'              # short form
airbyte-agent connectors list-available --fields data.id,data.name --json '{}'    # long form

Hints

• The list is filtered to what your account has access to — it will not show every connector that exists in Airbyte's catalog.
