Connect OfficeRnD Flex and PilotoMail
The first steps you need to take to connect the two platforms take place in OfficeRnD Flex:
- Open the Admin portal and navigate to Settings/Data & Extensibility/Developer Tools. You can learn more about developer tools in this article.
- Here you can create a new application that will be used to establish a connection between PilotoMail and OfficeRnD Flex.
- It's enough for the application to have only "Read" permissions as it won't be used to "Write" any data back to OfficeRnD.
- The "Grants" should be set to "Client Credentials". - Copy the "client_id" and "client_secret" of the application you created by clicking "View" next to your application.
After you have your client_id and client_secret you should open PilotoMail and:
- Navigate to Settings/Integrations and click on the Configuration button on the OfficeRnD integration card.
- Here, you can enter the "client_id" and "client_secret you created in OfficeRnD Flex along with your organization's name.
You can find your organization's name back in OfficeRnD Flex in Settings/Account Setup/General. The Name field should contain the name of your organization. You can also take a look at your location selector that's in the top-center of every page in the OfficeRnD admin's portal.
Configuring the Mapping Between Accounts
In order to finalize the connection between OfficeRnD and PilotoMail, you'll need to configure the mapping between your locations and plans in OfficeRnD to the respective spaces and plans created in PilotoMail.
