Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Quickbase, Captions, and any additional nodes, donβt 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 βRun onceβ and triggering an event to check if the Quickbase and Captions integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Quickbase and Captions (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Quickbase and Captions
Quickbase + Captions + Slack: When a project update is recorded in Quickbase, it triggers Captions to create a summary. The summary is then posted to a designated Slack channel for team review.
Captions + Quickbase + Google Sheets: After Captions generates captions from a meeting recording, the captions are stored as a new record in Quickbase. Simultaneously, data about this process gets tracked in Google Sheets for later analytics.
