Step-by-Step Guide

How to connect MySQL to Pinboard

Follow these steps to set up your integration. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.

What you'll need

  • An active MySQL account with read/write permissions
  • An active Pinboard account
  • A free Arahi AI account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
1

Create your Arahi AI account

Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it's free and takes 30 seconds. No credit card required. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.

2

Authenticate MySQL

Click "Add Connection" and select MySQL from the app directory. You'll be redirected to MySQL's authorization page. Grant Arahi read/write access to your database collections and records. You specify which databases and collections the integration can use.

3

Authenticate Pinboard

Same process for Pinboard. Click "Add Connection," select Pinboard, and authorize access. Grant Arahi access to your workspaces, databases, pages, and tasks. You select which workspaces the integration can read and write to.

4

Choose your trigger

Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new record created in mysql or new item created in pinboard. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.

5

Configure the action

Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create item in pinboard. Map the data fields between MySQL and Pinboard so the right information lands in the right place.

6

Test and activate

Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between MySQL and Pinboard. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — Arahi handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.
