Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Close CRM, Gmail, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario

Depending on your setup, data should flow between Close CRM and Gmail (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Close CRM and Gmail
Close CRM + Gmail + Slack: When a new lead is created in Close CRM, a welcome email is sent from Gmail to the lead's email address, and a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel with a link to the new lead's profile in Close CRM.
Gmail + Close CRM + Google Sheets: When a new email is sent from Gmail, the email details (recipient, subject, body) are added to a Google Sheet. The client's notes in Close CRM are then updated with a summary of the email sent.
