Using integrations in apps

Apps in Play can connect to integrations to display external data, trigger actions, and interact with the tools your team uses.

Connecting during build

Tag integrations when describing your app:

• “Build a dashboard that shows our /stripe revenue and /google-sheets pipeline data”

• “Create a tool that lets us search /apollo contacts and add them to our CRM”

Play wires up the integration connections as part of the build.

Connecting after build

Add integrations to an existing app by asking in the same chat:

• “Connect /slack to this app so it can post notifications”

• “Add /hubspot data to the contacts view”

What integrations enable in apps

• Data display — Show live data from external tools (revenue charts, ticket counts, email metrics)

• User actions — Let users trigger integration actions through the app UI (send an email, create a record, post a message)

• Real-time updates — App data refreshes from the integration source

• Combined views — Pull data from multiple integrations into a single dashboard
