Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring JobNimbus, Grist, 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 JobNimbus and Grist integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between JobNimbus 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 JobNimbus and Grist
JobNimbus + QuickBooks + Grist: When a job reaches a specific stage in JobNimbus (e.g., payment received), the automation finds or creates the corresponding customer in QuickBooks, updates their information, and then creates a record in Grist to track the financial update.
JobNimbus + Grist + Slack: When a new project is created in JobNimbus, the automation adds the project details to a designated Grist spreadsheet. Subsequently, a notification is sent to a specific Slack channel to inform the team about the new project.
