Third-party integrations establish data channels between Bika and other applications/services, enabling automated SMS sending, email notifications, social media publishing, and more. After configuration, you can directly activate these services in automation workflows.

This guide explains how to use third-party integrations to expand Bika's capabilities.

Integrations in Bika.ai

Bika's integrations system connects different platforms like:

Sending customer survey results to data dashboards
Receiving project updates via Slack
Syncing product inventory with e-commerce platforms

Currently supports 20+ mainstream applications. See integrations list inBika integrations

Practical applications in automation

⭐Usage 1: Extract the necessary parameters from the integration

Manually enter the URL: Manually enter the webhook URL for the corresponding platform.
Extract the URL from the integration: Select or create a new integration to obtain the corresponding webhook URL.

Select "Enter URL manually" to manually fill in the Slack webhook URL.

Select "Extract URL from Integration", and the "Available Integrations" drop-down option will appear. You can select a third-party integration that has been configured by the space in-app, or directly create a new integration and get the corresponding Webhook URL from it.

⭐Usage 2: Obtain an access token authorized by OAuth2

Applicable to services that require authentication tokens

For example, the automated execution of "X (Twitter) - Create Tweet" requires the use of X's API to create tweets. The X API requires OAuth2 authentication, so the X (Twitter) OAuth2.0 integration provided by Bika must be used to manage access tokens and fetch and refresh

The advantages of using integration in automation

Simplified configuration: By extracting parameters from the integration, configuration can be simplified, reducing the likelihood of errors.
Unified management: Through integration, access tokens for third-party services can be managed uniformly, enhancing security.
Repurposing: Through integration, you can repurpose already configured third-party services in multiple automated tasks to improve efficiency.
