Test the Scenario

Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Fillout and Grist integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Fillout and Grist (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect Fillout and Grist
