How to connect DonationAlerts and Motion
Create a New Scenario to Connect DonationAlerts and Motion
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 DonationAlerts, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, DonationAlerts or Motion will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find DonationAlerts or Motion, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring DonationAlerts, Motion, 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 DonationAlerts and Motion integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between DonationAlerts and Motion (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect DonationAlerts and Motion
DonationAlerts + Motion + Discord: When a new donation alert is received in DonationAlerts, if the donation amount reaches a predefined goal, a task is created in Motion to schedule a celebratory team meeting. Discord then announces the newly scheduled meeting.
Motion + DonationAlerts + Slack: When a task in Motion is updated (specifically, when it's marked as in progress), and a user associated with that task has donated through DonationAlerts, a leaderboard update is sent to a Slack channel, showing recent donations from meeting attendees.
