Triggers & Actions in Integromat
You perform the integration in Integromat by creating a scenario, which is the integration itself. A scenario defines a sequence of steps to be executed by Integromat. For each scenario, you specify the data source, how the data is to be processed, what information is to be used, and what is to be ignored.
Two primary tasks are needed to run a scenario, trigger, and action.
A trigger is a module that allows you to grab bundles that were added or updated since the last run of a scenario.
An action is a module that allows you to read or write bundles from or into a selected app/service.
Let’s move on to some examples, so you get a clear idea about integrating data from other apps to MailBluster.
