Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Grist, CloudTalk, 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 Grist and CloudTalk integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Grist and CloudTalk (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Grist and CloudTalk
CloudTalk + Grist + Slack: When a new call comes into CloudTalk, if the call is missed, a new row is created in Grist to track follow-up actions. Then, a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel to alert the sales team of the missed call and the new Grist entry.
CloudTalk + Grist + HubSpot: When a new call occurs in CloudTalk, the system updates the corresponding contact's details in a Grist spreadsheet. This updated information is then synchronized with the contact's profile in HubSpot, ensuring all platforms have the most current contact information.
