Deep dive
Easylim integrations — connecting Slack, Drive, GitHub without the Zapier tax
5 chapters
Integrations are the part of any SaaS that's easy to put in a screenshot and hard to keep alive a year in. Most products' "native" integration is really a webhook that occasionally remembers to fire. Easylim runs <strong>a curated set of native connections</strong> backed by our own queue, auto-retries and cryptographic signatures. Below: what "native" actually means versus API or Zapier, how to wire a webhook in five minutes, how to build notification rules that don't drown the team, and when the middleman is the right call.

What "native" actually means here and how it differs from API
Native = two-way integration built by the Easylim team. Slack, Gmail, Google Drive, GitHub, Calendar, Notion, Figma, Loom, Stripe, Teams, Telegram, Linear — many native integrations connect via an OAuth flow in 30 seconds: "Connect → Authorize → Done". No manual API keys, no no-code builder.
API = you build the integration yourself against our Public REST API + Webhooks. Makes sense if your team has an internal tool that's not in our catalog yet — a custom ERP, a self-hosted GitLab. OpenAPI schema, personal tokens, up to 5,000 requests/min with per-token rate limits.
Zapier / Make / n8n = we hook into all three so you can reach the 5,000+ apps we don't cover natively (HubSpot, Pipedrive, Mailchimp and a long tail of niche SaaS). It's a middleman — slower and paid — but it saves time when you need to connect 8 systems in a week.
- Many native = 30-second OAuth, no manual API keys.
- Public REST API = your own logic, OpenAPI schema, up to 5,000 req/min.
- Zapier/Make/n8n = access to 5,000+ apps, but as a middleman.

What data flow looks like — Slack ↔ Easylim ↔ Drive
A classic case: your team is chatting in Slack #bugs. Every message tagged 🐞 becomes a task in Easylim automatically, with the original Slack-thread link attached. The whole thing happens in under a second — the card appears in Backlog before the author has finished typing the next message.
In the other direction: when the task flips to "In review", the same Slack thread gets a bot post: "✓ Marked for review by @anna". Not a separate channel, not a DM — right where the team was already talking. Zero context-switching.
Google Drive wires up the same way, two-way. You attach a file to a task — Easylim creates a reference link while the file itself stays in Drive (no duplicate, no quota hit). Permission changes on the Drive side reflect in Easylim immediately. If a doc is moved to Trash, Easylim shows a warning and offers to swap in a different version.
- Slack ↔ Easylim: < 1 sec, tagged message becomes a task.
- No file duplication — Drive stays source of truth.
- Drive permission changes propagate to Easylim immediately.

How to set up a webhook in 5 minutes — without the theory
Webhooks are HTTP-POSTs with a JSON payload that Easylim fires at your server every time an event happens in the system. Unlike polling, this is instant (< 200 ms) and doesn't hammer your server with empty queries.
In Easylim you go to Settings → Webhooks → New. Fill in your endpoint URL (https://api.acme.io/easylim/hook), pick from many event types the ones you care about (task.created, comment.added, user.assigned, etc.), copy the secret key and click "Send test". Within the same second you see your server's response.
Every payload is signed cryptographically with your secret. That means your backend can verify the payload really came from Easylim, not a spoofer. If your server responds non-2xx, Easylim retries with growing intervals automatically.
- Many event types with granular subscription.
- Cryptographically signed → you can always verify authenticity.
- Auto-retries — transient network hiccups don't lose events.

Notification rules — how to keep Slack from exploding
The biggest mistake with integrations: turning on "all notifications to #general". A week later the channel is dead, because it has 200 messages a day and nobody can see anything important.
Easylim's answer is "when X → then Y" rules. "When a task is assigned to me → DM Slack #me". "When I'm mentioned in a comment → push + email digest at 5pm". "When deadline is in < 24 hours → reminder in my project's channel". Rules apply at the workspace, project or individual profile level.
Channels can be mixed: important events go to a team Slack channel, routine ones to a personal DM, summaries land as an email digest once a day. Every notification has a deep-link straight back into Easylim — one tap and you're on the card, no hunting. If someone is on PTO, set OOO and their notifications route to a backup for two weeks, then auto-revert.
- "When X → then Y" rule, not "all notifications".
- Channel matches event type: important → Slack, routine → DM, summary → email.
- OOO mode automatically routes notifications to a backup.

When native is NOT the right call — and Zapier actually wins
Native wins whenever it exists. Slack, Drive, GitHub, Gmail, Calendar, Notion, Figma, Stripe — running these through Zapier is pointless: you pay $20–80/mo for a zap pack, get 15–60 sec polling delay, and lose control over the payload. Nothing in exchange.
Zapier / Make / n8n make sense when you need to reach a niche SaaS we don't cover natively: an internal regional accounting product, a 5,000-user B2B marketplace, a custom CRM on Bitrix, a local logistics platform. Building a native integration for that one-off is unreasonable.
If you want maximum control + a niche stack, use our Public REST API + Webhooks directly. This is the path for teams with at least one backend developer: 2–5 days to build your own integration, but from then on you own 100% of the logic and don't pay a middleman. For serious integrations between large systems, this is the only correct path.
- If native exists → don't route via Zapier, you lose money and latency.
- Zapier is only justified for niche SaaS without native support.
- Max control + a developer on hand → Public API + Webhooks, not middleman.

- 2Webhooks: many event types, cryptographic signatures, auto-retries.
- 3"When X → then Y" rules instead of "all notifications" — keeps Slack alive.
- 4Zapier only for niche stacks. Native + Public API = serious integrations.
