Important Notes Before Activation
1. The integration only triggers an action when the order status is updated: when an order is created, when an order is cancelled and when an order is converted from reservation to accepted order. It will not trigger when the details within the order are updated, such as the price, number of participants, participant names, email or phone number.
2. Please keep in mind that we as bookingkit can not take over support for automations (so-called Zaps) created by you.
