Embedding Use Cases

Embedding Use Cases

viaSocket offers three embedding use cases to bring automation and integrations into your SaaS product. Each embed type offers a different level of user control and integration complexity.

1. Workflow Embed

This embed allows users to build complete workflows using a visual builder inside your application. Users can define what triggers the workflow (either from your app or external apps) and what actions to perform (using your app or third-party services). (Learn More)

2. Action Embed

This embed allows users to configure what actions to take when predefined events occur in your app. Users do not create or manage triggers — the system sends those events behind the scenes.

Advanced Use Case : AI Embed

To embed viaSocket into your chatbot or LLM, you can use the AI Embed feature. This allows your chatbot or LLM to execute automated workflows, connect with external services, and make intelligent, real-time decisions.

3. Trigger Embed

Trigger Embed works by allowing users to select specific triggers that initiate predefined actions, providing flexibility while maintaining consistency in how tasks are automated.

Choosing the Right Embed

  • Use Workflow Embed to let users build their own automation logic using both triggers and actions.

  • Use Action Embed to keep control over system triggers while letting users define outputs.

  • Use AI Embed when you just need to give users a secure way to connect apps — without workflows.

  • Use Trigger Embed ideal for platforms that want to let users easily automate processes based on fixed triggers while keeping the actions consistent and predefined.

How It Works:

• Predefined Actions: Users configure actions to take place when specific events occur in your app. The system automatically triggers these events behind the scenes, so users don't have to create or manage triggers.

• Simplified Setup: Users only need to decide the actions that should happen after a system event, such as sending messages, updating data, or notifying teams.


Why Choose This:

Centralized Control: Ideal for apps that want to keep control over when triggers happen while allowing users the flexibility to customize how data flows to external tools.

Easy to Use: The trigger is predefined, so users can focus on what happens next, making it simpler and more streamlined.

Use case example

A helpdesk platform includes automation options such as:

• "When a support ticket is created (system event), send a message to a Slack channel."

• "When a ticket is marked as resolved, log it into a Google Sheet and send a feedback survey to the customer."

Users only decide the actions — the trigger is fixed and comes from the system. This keeps things simple and aligned with specific app events.
