Below is a list and explanation of all of the elements in the scenario editor.
Modules in Boost.space Integrator represent individual steps in your automated process. There are different types of modules.
There is no limit to the number of modules you can add to your scenario. The number of operations depends on your subscription.
In order for Boost.space Integrator to communicate with a given app, you need to create a connection.
Depending on the module you have selected, right-click the module to open the following options:
Settings
Run this module only
Add a module
Add error handler
Rename

Copy moduleWhen working with multiple scenarios, use the copy module command to create a duplicate of your module that you can paste to any scenario. It functions similarly to cutting and pasting text on your computer. Although cloning a module is faster, copying allows you to paste the module in another scenario. Copying a module will also copy any filters before...

The schedule settings panel lets you adjust the running schedule of your scenario. By default, a scenario runs every 15 minutes. This panel allows you to customize the frequency and timing of your scenario. Click the clock to schedule a scenario. You can also access schedule settings via the toolbar by clicking the Schedule settings.
The clock represents a scheduled triggerEvery scenario has a trigger, an event that starts your scenario. A scenario must have a trigger. There can only be one trigger for each scenario. When you create a new scenario, the first module you choose is your trigger for that scenario. Create a trigger by clicking on the empty module of a newly created scenario or moving the..., the starting point of your scenario. A scenario can also start with an instant trigger, which is visually represented as lightning (
). Learn about different types of triggers.
A route is a connectionUnique, active service acces point to a network. There are different types of connections (API key, Oauth…). between two modules, visually represented as a dotted line.
Click the wrench (
) below the route connecting two modules to display the following options:
- Set up a filter – Filters bundles according to specific criteria. You can also access this option by clicking the route connecting two modules.
- Unlink – When you unlink a module, it will not be executed, unless it is a trigger.

To remove a module, right-click the module you want to delete and select Delete module.
Once you configure your scenario, click Run once to test your scenario. After your scenario executes, you can see the number of operationsAn operation is a task performed by module., as well as more details in the log.
An operationAn operation is a task performed by module. is a task performed by a module. Once the scenario is executed, Boost.space Integrator displays the number of operations performed by each module in the white bubble on the top-right of each module. Click the bubble to inspect the results of the module’s operation.
Boost.space Integrator charges you according to the total number of operations performed by the modules in your scenario. For more information, check how to count the number of operations.
The log records every event that occurs during a single run of a scenario and records it for the scenario execution history. The log contains information about each step and any errors encountered during the execution of the scenario.
If everything works properly, you can activate the scenario. Select ON to activate your scenario or OFF to deactivate the scenario.
Learn about the difference between active and inactive scenarios.
If your scenario does not run as expected, check our error handling section.
Click the left arrow in the top-left corner to close the scenario editor and return to the scenario detail page.

Boost.space Integrator gives you the possibility to create highly sophisticated scenarios with many modules. Click the magic wand to adjust the overall layout of the modules in the scenario so you can see them aligned.
Click the airplane before running the scenario to see your data flow between modules.
Click the three dots to open the following menu:
- Export BlueprintBoost.space Integrator lets you import and export scenarios via a blueprint, a file in JSON format. Your blueprint contains all of your modules and settings except for connections. When importing from a blueprint, you must add your connections. – Allows you to save the scenario blueprint in the JSON format to your computer.
- Import Blueprint – Allows you to load the scenario blueprint in the JSON format from your computer.
- Previous Versions – Allows you to restore a previous version of the scenario. Learn how to restore a previous scenario version.
