How to integrate Bubble.io with Chanty?

Integration Guide: Bubble.io with Chanty

This guide provides an explicit step-by-step procedure to integrate Chanty with Bubble.io platform. Considering that Bubble.io doesn't inherently support instant Chanty integration, we will create custom Code/API call to facilitate this integration.

Step 1: Access Your Chanty Account's API Key

  • Log in to your Chanty account on your browser and navigate to the admin settings.
  • Scroll down until you locate 'API' and select it.
  • Here, you'll find an API Key unique to your Chanty account. Copy this so you can use it later.

Step 2: Log into your Bubble.io Account

  • Open another browser tab and go to the Bubble.io website.
  • Input your login details and sign in to your Bubble.io account.

Step 3: Start a New app / Open an existing one

  • Once you are in the main dashboard area, click 'New App' to initiate a new project. You can also open an existing project if you already have one you'd like to integrate with Chanty.

Step 4: Install API Connector Plugin

  • Go to your project workbench in Bubble.io.
  • Click on 'Plugins' on the left side navigation bar.
  • In the search bar, search for 'API Connector'.
  • Click on the 'Install' button and the plugin will be added shortly to your app.

Step 5: Configure your API calls

  • Go back towards the project workbench and click on 'Plugins' again.
  • Inside the 'API Connector', click on 'Add another API'. Here, we will add the Chanty API.
  • Give your API a recognizable name. For instance, 'Chanty API'.
  • In the 'API Base URL' field, input the Chanty’s API base URL. Typically, it should be something like https://api.chanty.com

Step 6: Setting up an authentication

  • In the 'Authentication' section, choose 'Bearer Token' as the option.
  • In the 'Shared Headers' section, write ‘Authorization’ in the first box and paste your Chanty's API Key (which you copied in Step 1) in the second box.

Step 7: Add API Calls

  • Now click on 'Add another call'.
  • Choose 'GET' as the method type.
  • Input the relevant endpoint, e.g., /api/v1/users to fetch all users. Note this varies based on what action you want to perform.
  • Press 'Initialize Call' to verify if it’s working. If all is setup correctly, you should see the response.
  • Configure other API calls as per your requirement.

Step 8: Use API results

  • After completing your API calls, you can use the data by inserting dynamic data in your Bubble.io actions or visual elements.
  • Choose 'Get data from external API' and select the API call you added.
  • Perform the operations as per your use case with the data received from Chanty.

Note: This guide assumes you have basic knowledge about how both Bubble.io and Chanty operate. This process may involve trial/error as the API calls depends on what operation you want to perform with Chanty. Please familiarize yourself with Chanty's API documentation to understand the endpoints and their responses more accurately!

Bubble.io and Chanty integration usecase

Scenario: A software development company is using Bubble.io as a visual programming tool to develop web apps for it's clients. They also use Chanty, a team collaboration app for internal communication and task management. The company wants to automate the task of notifying team members in Chanty whenever a new task related to the app development is created in Bubble.io.

Solution: Integrating Bubble.io with Chanty

Setting up the Web App: The software development team uses Bubble.io to visually create complex web apps for its clients without writing extensive code.

Configuring the Integration: They use a webhook plugin in Bubble.io to send POST requests to Chanty’s REST API. The company also configures their Chanty API key and sets specific triggers and actions in Bubble.io's API connector.

Task Creation Workflow: When someone in the team creates a new task or modifies an existing one in Bubble.io, the webhook is triggered. This webhook calls the Chanty REST API with task details such as name, description, and the assigned team member's user-ID in the payload.

Notification on Chanty: When the API receives the payload, a new message is sent to the assigned team member in Chanty containing the task details.

Monitoring Activity: The integration allows the development team to automatically track task creation and modifications in real-time, without having to switch between Bubble.io and Chanty.

Benefits:

Efficiency: By automating the task creation alert system, the company is saving time and improving team synchronization.

Real-time Updates: Integration allows for real-time task updates, keeping team members promptly informed about their assignments.

Improved Collaboration: With automated messages about tasks, the collaboration among team members is greatly improved, enhancing the overall productivity.

By integrating Bubble.io with Chanty, the software development company can manage its tasks more efficiently while encouraging better, informed and real-time internal collaboration.
