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