Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Knack, Discord bot, 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 Knack and Discord bot integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Knack and Discord bot (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Knack and Discord bot
Knack + Google Sheets + Discord bot: When a new record is created in Knack, the information is added to a Google Sheet. A Discord bot then sends a message to a specified channel alerting users to the new Knack entry and providing a link to the sheet.
Discord bot + Knack + Twilio: When a specific command is received by the Discord bot in a channel, the bot updates a record in a Knack database. This update then triggers a Twilio SMS message to be sent to a specified phone number with relevant information from the updated Knack record.
