What is Integromat?
Integromat is an integration platform that enables one to connect apps and automate workflows using a beautiful, no-code visual builder. One can connect to any API and create complex integrations using built-in apps and tools, no coding needed.
How does Integromat work?
To understand how Integromat works, you need to know what an API is. An API (application program interface) is something that a software provider (like MailChimp, Shopify, or PayPal) provides so developers can access data within their applications. For example, a developer writes code that detects all new Shopify orders via the Shopify API, then subscribes them to a MailChimp newsletter via the MailChimp API.
Instead of needing the code, Integromat has turned these complicated APIs into simple blocks that can be connected with a simple drag-and-drop. Integromat calls these blocks ‘Modules’ and the visual connections between them ‘Scenarios’.
Once set up, Integromat runs 24-7, processing in the background with no maintenance required.
