An Action Provider can only execute transactions on a smart contract if it has been explicitly granted a role on that contract. This is a one-time on-chain setup.

​
Steps

1

Copy the Action Provider address

Go to Action Providers, click on the provider you want to connect, and copy its address using the Copy icon next to the address.
You can also click the external link icon to view the address on a block explorer.
2

Grant the required role on your contract

Using your contract’s admin interface (e.g., Etherscan, your own frontend, or a script), call the function that grants a role to the provider’s address.Common roles depending on your contract:
  • grantRole(PAUSER_ROLE, <provider_address>)
  • grantRole(OPERATOR_ROLE, <provider_address>)
  • addPauser(<provider_address>)
Do not grant OWNER_ROLE or equivalent. This would give the provider (and Extractor) full administrative control over your contract. Use only the minimum permissions required for the actions you want to automate.
3

Verify the connected actions

Back in Extractor, open the provider’s detail page and click the Connected actions tab. Actions that use this provider will appear here once configured.

Now that the provider has the right on-chain permissions, make sure it has enough balance to pay for gas:
