What are Integrations?
Integrations allow SnapApp to communicate with systems outside SnapApp. They help SnapApp send data to other tools or receive data from them, such as files, records, or API responses.
If SnapApp needs to exchange information with another application, an Integration is required.
Types of Integrations
SnapApp supports the following integration types:
- FTP Inbound – Receive files from an external FTP server into SnapApp
- FTP Outbound – Send files from SnapApp to an external FTP server
- Inbound Webhook – Receive data sent by another system into SnapApp
- Outbound Webhook – Send data from SnapApp to another system
- Expression – Process or transform data using expressions
- GCS Inbound – Fetch files or data from Google Cloud Storage (GCS)
Choose the integration type based on what you want SnapApp to do.
