Here are some examples of actions you can use to send data to the Boost.space Integrator scenario:

We will use the Get Current Weather action as an example, but you can choose one or more other actions.

Get Current Weather – to send the current weather to your Boost.space Integrator scenario.

Dictate Text – to trigger the Boost.space Integrator scenario with your voice and send the speech converted to text to the scenario.

Ask for Input – to trigger the scenario and send the text, number, URL, or date you enter on your iOS device to your Boost.space Integrator scenario.

Get Latest Photos – to send information about the latest photo on your device.

Contacts – to send the selected contact to your Boost.space Integrator scenario.

Get Clipboard – to send the content of your clipboard to the Boost.space Integrator scenario.

Step 3: Add the Shortcuts Module to the Scenario and Generate the Webhook URL
