How to connect Database and Square
Create a New Scenario to Connect Database and Square
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.
Add the First Step

- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Database, Square, 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 Database and Square integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Database and Square (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
