In this Article, we will review how to pass data from Skilljar into Tray.io so that you can use training data in other tools across your business ecosystem. Tray.io is an iPaaS solution that connects hundreds of applications and can now connect with Skilljar Webhook triggers seamlessly from your organization.
1. Create an API Key for Tray from your Skilljar Dashboard
API keys are generated via the Skilljar Dashboard. If you are an admin on your account, you can generate an API Key from Organization settings > API Credentials page. Select the "Create a Key" button to generate a new API Key. You can use this API key to setup your Tray Integration.
2. Log into tray.io and create a new workflow
Click the “New Workflow” Button from https://app.tray.io/
Name your Workflow
Search for the Skilljar Trigger and Move to the next step
3. Enable the workflow
NOTE: If you don't enable the workflow, your Webhook endpoint may be disabled by Skilljar before you start seeing data in Tray. There is no downside to enabling the workflow before setting up the downstream events in the Tray workflow.
Now that you have created the initial trigger in the workflow, It is important to ENABLE the workflow so that your webhook will remain enabled once you Authenticate the Tray App to your Skilljar Organization via the API key.
Once the Workflow is Enabled, any Webhook Messages sent by Skilljar will get a successful response from the Tray Endpoint and Skilljar will not disable them.
4. Authenticate the connector using your API key
Click on the “Skilljar” Trigger in your workflow to set up a new authentication. If you have set up an Authentication in Tray with your Skilljar Organization before, you can select the Integration from the drop-down and move to the next step.
Click “New Authentication” and Name the Authentication
Enter the API key that you generated in Step one, and Create the Authentication
If you entered the API key correctly, the Integration Should authenticate and you will see a “Success message” in the bottom left-hand side of your screen.
5. Select which Event Type you would like to receive through this trigger
In the “Input Data” section of the Skilljar Trigger Settings, you can set the Workflow to filter to one specific Skilljar Event type. Learn more about the different Webhook event types on our Webhook Help Article Here.
If you do not select an Event Type from this location, your workflow will process for all of the Skilljar Event types that are sent through webhooks.
6. Data is now flowing from your organization to Tray through the Skilljar Webhooks
Click on “Debug” and take some actions on your Skilljar Training Domain to start to see webhook messages populate in the Tray interface
Clicking into the events can give you more info on what Information is being passed as a part of this integration.
7. Use the “Output Events” from the Tray Debugger
Doing this on each webhook test event will add the different event responses to your tray dashboard, which will make it easier to create workflows with specific data from your training site.
