How to integrate apps with Pluga?

Pluga allows you to integrate two or more apps in a simple, practical way without needing to type a single line of code. Here are the steps to automate your tasks and start focusing on what really matters.

  • Trigger and source app of the automation

    What is the automation trigger?

    The trigger is the step that initiates automation. In the integration process, it is selected after choosing the source app. For example, if you choose Facebook Lead Ads as the source app, the trigger could be: For each response on an advertisement.

  • Action and destination app of the automation

    What is an action within an automation?

    The action serves as a response to the previously selected trigger. That is, it occurs once the trigger is activated. For example, in an automation between Facebook Lead Ads (source) and Google Sheets (destination), as soon as the trigger “For each response on an advertisement” is activated in the source app, the action “Add data to a new row on a spreadsheet” will be carried out in the destination app.

  • Information mapping of the automation

    How does information mapping work?

    Information mapping is where you configure which captured information from the source app will be sent to each field in the destination app(s).

    For example, in an automation between Facebook Lead Ads and Google Sheets, this step is where you will determine which contact information should fill in the spreadsheet fields.

  • Automation with multiple actions among more than two apps

    Is it possible to have more than one action?

    With Pluga, you can create automations by integrating several apps at once. For example, you can integrate Facebook Lead Ads + Google Sheets + Slack, so when the trigger is activated, the first action is executed and a notification is sent via Slack.

Automate Gmail + Google Drive
and say goodbye to manual (and tedious) tasks!

Automatic transfer of your contacts' information to other apps

Reduce communication noise - and rework!

If your company uses any type of internal communication tool, it's possible to automate the routine of notifications and alerts within it.

At Pluga, for example, you can connect this software to your project management platform so that every time a task changes status, this is communicated in a channel. In other words, it increases productivity, reduces communication noise, and avoids possible rework.

Customized alerts for customers

Often, personalized communication is what will captivate a customer to keep them interested in your brand. But doing this manually is almost impossible. Using Pluga, you can send these notifications automatically without losing personalization.
