      Non-Native Integration Options

      How to integrate your CRM or Order System to Wicked Reports, when a native integration is not available

      List of Options

      1. Route data from a Non-Native Integration to a Native Integration
      2. Webhooks
      3. Zapier
      4. Custom API
      5. HTTP Post
      6. CSV Uploader
      7. Migrate to a Native Integration

      1. Route data from a Non-Native Integration to a Native Integration

      Let's say you use Software X. Software X does not integrate with Wicked Reports.
      However, you also use Software Y. Software Y does integrate with Wicked Reports!

      Are you able to have all of Software X's data sent to Software Y?
      If so, then enable the native integration with Software Y to access your data.

      Example:
      Wicked Reports does not have a native integration with SamCart. However, SamCart sends their data to Stripe. In this scenario, you will natively integrate Stripe with Wicked Reports.

      2. Webhooks

      Some softwares (like Shopify) offer no-code, WYSIWYG webhooks. If your software offers this option, then this an easy way to send data to Wicked Reports without having to bring a middleware software (like Zapier or Custom API) into the picture.

      Example:

      3. Zapier (or similar)

      3rd-Party integrators, like Zapier, offer pre-built API connections. Depending on your monthly task load & available tech team, this may be a more affordable, low-maintenance solution instead of building your own custom API.

      6. CSV Uploader

      The CSV Uploader is a great option for the following scenarios:

      1. You do not need fresh data on a live or daily basis
      2. There is an infrequent or insignificant amount of data that needs to be imported
      3. You have a member on your team that can take care of this task for you on a regular basis

      7. Migrate to a Native Integration
