Plugins in Flatfile are reusable, modular components that extend the platform’s data import and processing capabilities. They provide pre-built functionality for common data import/extraction, transformation, and processing tasks, integrations, and workflows, enabling rapid development of sophisticated import solutions.

​
What are Plugins?

A Plugin is a self-contained module that:
  • Extends Functionality - Adds new capabilities to your import workflows
  • Encapsulates Logic - Packages complex operations into reusable components
  • Provides Integration - Connects to external systems and services
  • Enables Customization - Allows configuration for specific use cases
Plugins can be used by Listeners to perform specialized tasks without writing custom code. You can also create your own plugins to extend Flatfile’s capabilities. For detailed guides on our available plugins, see the Plugins section.
