Depending on your setup, data should flow between Canny and Smsapi (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Canny and Smsapi
Canny + Smsapi + Slack: When a new post is submitted on Canny, especially if tagged as critical, a text message is sent to the support team via SMSapi. Simultaneously, the new Canny post is posted to a designated Slack channel to notify the team.
Smsapi + Canny + Google Sheets: When an SMS is sent via Smsapi (presumably in response to a Canny feedback request, even though the trigger isn't SMS response), the SMS details, along with any feedback, will be logged in a Google Sheet.
