Depending on your setup, data should flow between ConvertAPI and Square (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect ConvertAPI and Square
ConvertAPI + Square + Google Sheets: When a file is converted using ConvertAPI, the workflow retrieves corresponding payment details from Square based on information extracted from the converted document. The details are then logged into a Google Sheet for financial tracking.
Square + ConvertAPI + Slack: When a new event occurs in Square (e.g., a refund), the workflow converts relevant transaction data to a PDF file using ConvertAPI. A summary of this PDF is then sent to a designated Slack channel for review.
