Automated Customer Check-in: When a customer signs in using a custom form or app, trigger a workflow on Pipedream to add them to the Waitwhile waitlist automatically. Connect to a CRM like Salesforce to log the visit and update the customer's profile with the wait time and service details.
Real-time Waitlist Syncing: Sync Waitwhile's waitlist with Google Sheets in real-time. Each time a customer's status changes or they're added/removed from the list, a Pipedream workflow updates the corresponding sheet, keeping all stakeholders informed without manual data entry.
Appointment Reminder System: Set up a workflow to send SMS reminders to customers about their upcoming appointments. When Waitwhile schedules an appointment, Pipedream can trigger an SMS via Twilio, reminding the customer of their appointment time and providing options to confirm or reschedule.
Waitwhile uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Waitwhile account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Waitwhile APIs in both code and no-code steps.
