Event-Driven Integration

Part of the CloudQix Glossary of API, iPaaS & Workflow Automation Terms 

Definition 

Event-driven integration is a method of connecting applications so workflows are triggered automatically by specific events, such as a new order or updated record. 

In-Depth Explanation 

Unlike scheduled integrations, event-driven integration reacts instantly to business events. When an event occurs in one system, it triggers actions in another. This makes processes faster and more responsive. 
 
CloudQix supports event-driven integration using webhooks and triggers, allowing businesses to automate workflows in real time. 

Examples by Industry 

• Finance: Trigger a workflow when an invoice is approved to update the accounting system. 

• Software: Create a new Jira ticket when a bug is reported in an app. 

• Retail: Send a confirmation email when a new online order is placed. 

• Transportation & Logistics: Update a dispatch system when a delivery is scanned into a warehouse. 

Why It Matters 

Event-driven integration ensures businesses react instantly to changes, improving customer experience and operational efficiency.
