Every organization is different, with different requirements and workflows. For example, one organization might need daily synchronization with QuickBooks Online, and another might want to automatically copy new events to their Facebook page.

Wild Apricot cannot anticipate and implement every possible scenarioA specific connection between applications in which data can be transferred. Two types of scenarios: active/inactive., but we can provide the tools that allow you to build your own automated workflows. Using them, you can automate repetitive manual processes involving Wild Apricot and other software.

To provide these tools, we have added a Wild Apricot moduleThe module is an application or tool within the Boost.space system. The entire system is built on this concept of modularity. (module - Contacts) to Boost.spaceCentralization and synchronization platform, where you can organize and manage your data. IntegratorPart of the Boost.space system, where you can create your connections and automate your processes., an integration and automation platform. Within our Boost.space Integrator module, we provide templates that you can use to build and run your own automated integration scenariosA specific connection between applications in which data can be transferred.

Using Boost.space Integrator‘s drag-and-drop interface, clients (and partners) can harness the power of Wild Apricot’s API without having to understand or write code.

Working with Boost.space Integrator templates

Now that you have an Boost.space Integrator account and a Wild Apricot API key, you can start customizing and running the templates we’ve set up in Boost.space Integrator. These templates perform commonly requested processes, such as sending members messages on their birthdays. You can customize these templates or run them as is.

To run or customize a Wild Apricot template in Boost.space Integrator, follow these steps:

1. Click Templates within your Boost.space Integrator menu.

   

2. Click the Filter icon.

   

3. Search for Wild Apricot then click the Wild Apricot icon.

   

4. Select the Wild Apricot template you want to use.

5. Click Create new scenario from template.

6. Choose the name of your organization (if not already selected) then click Continue.

7. Click Add beside the Connection field, and paste the Wild Apricot API key you copied when you authorized Boost.space Integrator as an external application in Wild Apricot.

   

8. Depending on the template, you may be required to provide additional parameters. After you’ve completed all the required fields, Boost.space Integrator will create a scenario from the template and the information you provided. You can then modify the scenario as needed.
