Last updated February 18, 2025
Why Use Integrations?
Integrating with other tools helps streamline operations, reduce manual work, and improve efficiency. Common use cases include:
✅ Syncing customer data with your CRM
✅ Automating notifications in Slack or Microsoft Teams
✅ Exporting reports to Google Sheets or other analytics tools
Connecting an Integration
- Go to Settings > Integrations.
- Browse available integrations or search for a specific tool.
- Click "Connect" and authorize access to your account.
- Configure settings such as data sync frequency and permissions.
Example: Connecting with Slack will allow automated messages when key actions occur, like new user signups.
Using Webhooks for Custom Automation
If you need deeper automation, webhooks allow real-time data exchange. To set up a webhook:
- Navigate to Settings > Webhooks.
- Click "Create Webhook" and enter the endpoint URL.
- Choose event triggers (e.g., "New Order Created" or "Subscription Canceled").
- Save and test the webhook to ensure it sends data correctly.
Best Practices for Automation
✔ Test integrations before fully deploying them.
✔ Regularly review active connections to remove unused ones.
✔ Use error logs to troubleshoot failed automation workflows.
