Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Knack, Tools, 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

Depending on your setup, data should flow between Knack and Tools (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Knack + Tools + Slack: When a new record is created in Knack, indicating tool usage, the automation retrieves the tool information from Tools' key-value storage and sends a notification to the maintenance team in Slack.
Tools + Knack + Google Sheets: When a tool is used (data logged in Tools), a new record is created in Knack, and then relevant data about the tool usage from Knack is added as a new row in a Google Sheet for reporting purposes.
