How to connect Moco and Motion
Create a New Scenario to Connect Moco and Motion
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Moco, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Moco or Motion will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Moco or Motion, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Moco Node
Select the Moco node from the app selection panel on the right.

- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Moco, Motion, 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 Moco and Motion integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Moco and Motion (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Moco and Motion
Moco + Motion + Slack: When time is tracked in Moco (Watch Events), search for the related tasks in Motion, and then notify the project team in Slack with task details.
Motion + Moco + Google Calendar: When a task is updated in Motion (Task Events), get the task details and update the Google Calendar event with the task schedule. Use tracked time data from Moco to inform the scheduling. Requires manual time data input for now.
