How to connect Discourse and Jibble
Create a New Scenario to Connect Discourse and Jibble
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Discourse, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Discourse or Jibble will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Discourse or Jibble, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Discourse Node
Select the Discourse node from the app selection panel on the right.

- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- 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.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Discourse, Jibble, 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 Discourse and Jibble integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Discourse and Jibble (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Discourse and Jibble
Discourse + Jibble + Slack: When a new topic is created in Discourse, a corresponding activity is created in Jibble for time tracking. A notification is then sent to a Slack channel to alert the team about the new topic and activity.
Jibble + Discourse + Google Sheets: When employees clock in or out via Jibble, a summary post is created in Discourse to keep the team updated on progress. Simultaneously, the clock in/out data is logged to a Google Sheet for reporting and data analysis.
