# NEW: Integrations feature

{% hint style="info" %}
Available on [**Interact** ](https://www.clickatell.com/products/interact/)and [**Transact** ](https://www.clickatell.com/transact/)packages
{% endhint %}

*Integrations* provides you with a self-serve, no-code way to integrate third-party applications in just a few minutes. Once the integration is [set up in the Clickatell Portal](https://clickatell.gitbook.io/integrations/getting-started/adding-a-new-integration), you can use them in your automated workflows ([Chat Flow](https://clickatell.gitbook.io/flow/integrations/integration-nodes)), creating a more robust chat journey. *Integrations* mitigates confusion, data loss, and inconsistencies across applications, resulting in more efficient customer service and happier customers.

With integrations, you can:

* Perform various frequently used operations (like creating a ticket in Zendesk or adding a Sales Lead in Salesforce) automatically via Chat Flow.
* Keep your customer data in sync across all these mentioned 3rd-party applications.
* Fetch data from other applications in your tech stack and use the data in Chat Flow.
* Push your chat support data (from Chat Flow) to other applications in your tech stack.

## Benefits of using Chat Hub integrations <a href="#benefits-of-using-chat-hub-integrations" id="benefits-of-using-chat-hub-integrations"></a>

* **Happier and more productive customer support agents:** Customer support agents often need to open multiple browser tabs to support a single customer. Some customer information may be present in Salesforce, whereas other info is in Hubspot, or the customer tickets might be in Zendesk. With *Integrations*, all this information will be passed to Clickatell chat applications so that the chatbot or agents have easy access to more holistic customer information.&#x20;
* **Customer data stays updated:** With *Integrations*, you can keep data across your SaaS applications up to date. This makes data analysis, interpretation, and application easier and more accurate as it removes the silos between these applications.&#x20;
