How to connect MySQL and Canny
Create a New Scenario to Connect MySQL and Canny
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.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring MySQL, Canny, 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 MySQL and Canny integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between MySQL and Canny (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
