This efficiency allows the accounting department to focus on more important tasks, facilitates information sharing with sales and marketing, and strengthens interdepartmental collaboration.

Achieve productivity improvement and organizational consistency with the integration of Stripe and Google Chat through Yoom!

Benefits of Integrating Stripe and Google Chat

Benefit 1: Streamlining Confirmation Tasks and Efficient Resource Utilization

With automatic notifications to Google Chat when payments occur in Stripe, accounting personnel no longer need to check emails or management screens.

This reduces the hassle of payment confirmation and frees up resources for other important tasks. For example, where accounting personnel previously had to check payment statuses daily, Google Chat notifications automatically provide the necessary information, ensuring no payment status is overlooked.

This efficiency allows the accounting department to focus on high-value tasks such as budget management and data analysis, leading to overall productivity improvement. Automation also reduces the risk of payment errors, and enables quick customer response, enhancing the reliability of operations.

Benefit 2: Enhanced Transparency and Consistency in Interdepartmental Decision-Making

With the integration of Stripe and Google Chat, payment information is automatically shared, allowing not only the accounting department but also sales and marketing departments to grasp the latest payment status in real-time.
This information sharing facilitates appropriate responses from related departments and leads to improved transparency across the team.

For example, when accounting confirms payment information, it is simultaneously shared with sales, which can be utilized in customer interactions and service proposals, strengthening interdepartmental collaboration. This centralized information sharing smoothens company-wide decision-making, enabling each department to work with unified information, maintaining consistency throughout the organization.

[What is Yoom]

Step 1: Connect Stripe and Google Chat to My Apps

Before setting up the flow, let's connect the apps you will use with Yoom.
After logging into Yoom, click "+ New Connection" from "My Apps" in the left menu.

When the "New Connection for My Apps" window appears, search for Stripe and Google Chat and proceed with the input according to the displayed content.

For the Stripe connection, you need to obtain an API key from the admin panel. Also, Google Chat can only be implemented by someone with admin rights on Google Cloud Platform.

Once the connection is complete, it will be displayed in the list of My Apps.

Once you have confirmed Google Chat in the same way, the connection to My Apps is complete.

Step 2: Set Up App Triggers

The initial setting is "When payment is successfully completed".
On the first page, the account information of Stripe connected to My Apps is reflected.

The title can be changed, so if necessary, change it to something easy to understand.
Changing the trigger action will cause an error, so after confirming the account information, proceed to the next step as is.

The initial API connection setting is a test to confirm if the trigger is activated by Webhook.
No prior setup is required, so click "Test" as is to check for errors.

Next, proceed to the connection confirmation to obtain information when the payment is completed.

On this page, a test of the connection will be conducted, but make sure to complete the payment process for testing in Stripe. (If you do not do this, an error will occur)

If the test is successful, you can obtain the output of the payment information.

In practice, specific values obtained from the test are reflected next to each item in the above image.
Once you have confirmed up to this point, click "Save" to complete the app trigger setup.

Step 3: Set Up Actions

Next, set up Google Chat with "Send Message".
On the first page, as with Stripe, check the account information and, if necessary, correct the title before proceeding to the next step.

On the next page, set the content to be notified to Google Chat.

Select the resource name of the Google Chat space from the candidates, and use the output obtained from the Stripe setup for the message content.
In addition to the output, phrases like "Payment has been completed on Stripe." are notified as fixed phrases.

Click "Test", and if no error occurs, click "Save" to complete the setup.

Finally, turn on the trigger to activate the flow!

Now, when a payment is completed on Stripe, the information will be notified to Google Chat.
