Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Motion, Mailgun, 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 Motion and Mailgun integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Motion and Mailgun (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Motion and Mailgun
Motion + Mailgun + Slack: When a task event is triggered in Motion (e.g., task missed), Mailgun sends a personalized email notification. Subsequently, Slack sends a reminder message to a specified channel.
Mailgun + Motion + Google Calendar: When a new bounce event occurs in Mailgun, a new task is created in Motion to schedule a training session. This session is then saved as an event in Google Calendar.
