Can someone point me to a guide or checklist on how to set up an external service (like Pipedream) to access our data? Steps like creating an app, scope, etc.? Is there a repository of these guides for different services?

TIA!

    Hi @Art Bryman - we don't have a repo for connections to services. It's a great idea but we haven't heard many asking for that. We have a marketplace application for Workato and our certified connectors for the Power Platform. There was a customer led demo for Zapier (@Will Alveno) at a previous bbdevdays. And a customer created a custom connector for Airbyte. (@Allan Delmare)

    I hope you'll contribute your solution to connecting to Pipedream when complete (and maybe you'd want to submit for our bbdevdays hackathon too!).

    Can someone create a guide for the newbies, that explains what settings in Blackbaud mean what? These are pretty consistent across all platforms - App ID, add to marketplace, add scope, etc.?
