Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Contacts+, MySQL, 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
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Contacts+ and MySQL integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Contacts+ and MySQL (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Contacts+ and MySQL
Contacts+ + MySQL + Google Sheets: When a new contact is added to Contacts+, the contact's details are backed up to a MySQL database. A log entry, including the contact's name and date of creation, is added to a Google Sheet for tracking purposes.
MySQL + Contacts+ + Slack: When contact information is updated in a MySQL database, the corresponding contact in Contacts+ is updated to reflect the changes. A notification is then sent to a Slack channel to alert relevant team members about the updated contact information.
