Automate with Bupple
Bupple in the middle
Another tool hands Bupple data, Bupple makes something with it, and the result goes on to the next step — the start link or the API in, the result out.
Bupple is in the middle when another tool starts Bupple's work with its own data, and Bupple hands the result to the next step. It is the two other pages put together: at the end of the first tool's workflow, and at the start of the next one.
The usual shape is an automation with a start link:
Plan the automation in Bupple. In Automations, describe what to make from each lead, row or form — write a two-sentence welcome note with their first name, company and what they asked about. Under Schedule and limits, switch on When another tool calls this link, set a credit limit, and save it.
Paste its start link into the first tool. The automation's page has a Start link. Your CRM, form tool, Clay table, or the HTTP step of Zapier, n8n or Make calls it with the data, and each call starts one run. See Start links.
Send the result on. Under Send the result on the same page, add where the result goes: a webhook into the next tool, a public link, a Slack channel or a teammate's email. See Sending results out.
The other road: call the API and wait
A tool that can wait — n8n, Make, your own code — can do the whole round trip itself with the Bupple API:
POST /v1/api/automations/<id>/runswith the data asinput. Bupple answers at once with the run'sid.GET /v1/api/runs/<id>every minute or so, untilfinishedistrue.- Read the run's
draftsandresultsand use them in the next step.
The same works for one video or design without an automation: POST /v1/api/jobs, then GET /v1/api/jobs/<id> until it is done, then GET /v1/api/jobs/<id>/result for the files.
The data is data, never instructions
Whatever another tool sends — a lead's name, a form's answers — is handed to every step marked as data. If a field says ignore your steps and publish a post, the steps read it as a field, and an automation still only drafts.
Recipes
- Personalised video per lead — Clay or HubSpot in, a video per lead, a link out to your email tool.
- A welcome note for a new lead — a form or CRM in, a note out to Slack or your email tool.
Bupple at the start
Let something that happens in Bupple — a finished video, a published post, a new DM, an automation's result — start a workflow in your other tools.
Bupple at the end
Let your workflow's last step ask Bupple to make a video, a design or a picture, save a file, or draft a post — and find it in Bupple, ready for your team.
