Choose your trigger
Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new message received in intercom or new order placed in stripe. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.
Configure the action
Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create order in stripe. Map the data fields between Intercom and Stripe so the right information lands in the right place.
Test and activate
