Frequently Asked Questions

How do I connect When I Work and GitHub?

Sign up for a free viaSocket account, then authorize both your When I Work and GitHub accounts. From there, pick a trigger in one app and an action in the other. Your first workflow can be live in under five minutes.

Does this integration work in real time?

Yes. viaSocket uses instant triggers where available, so data moves between When I Work and GitHub as soon as the event happens. Scheduled polling triggers run at a maximum interval of 15 minutes.

Can I control which data gets sent from When I Work to GitHub?

Yes. You can map specific fields, apply filters to skip records that do not match your conditions, and transform values before they reach GitHub. No coding required.

Can the integration run in both directions?

Yes. You can set up a workflow where When I Work triggers actions in GitHub, and a separate workflow where GitHub triggers actions in When I Work. Both run independently and in real time.

What happens if a step in the workflow fails?

viaSocket logs every run so you can see exactly what succeeded and what failed. Failed tasks can be retried from the dashboard without re-configuring the workflow.

Is viaSocket free to use?
