Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Kintone, Google Chat, 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 Kintone and Google Chat integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Kintone and Google Chat (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Kintone and Google Chat
Kintone + Slack: When a new record is created in Kintone, a message is sent to a specified Slack channel to notify the team. This allows for quick awareness of new entries and facilitates immediate discussion.
Google Chat + Kintone + Jira: When a new message is posted in Google Chat, create a Jira issue. The details and a link of the Google Chat message are then added as a comment to the newly created Jira issue and also create a corresponding record in Kintone.
