With Walls.io, you can automatically import new donations from Donately onto your Wall. It's easy to achieve this with our Zapier integration. This step-by-step guide explains how it's done.
​
β€‹πŸš¨ Important: This integration requires access to the Walls.io API, which can be purchased as an add-on for all plans. API access is also included in our Enterprise plans and some legacy plans.


1. Sign in to your Donately account

To get started, sign in to your Donately account if you haven't already.

2. Make a donation to pull it onto your Wall

Make a donation if you haven't already. Every new donation will then be displayed on your wall.

3. Enable API access for your Wall

Log in to your Walls.io account and go to Settings > API and activate the access token: πŸ‘‡
​

4. Sign in to Donately account and connect it

In Zapier, start to create your "Zap" by clicking "Make a Zap" (a Zap is kind of a "recipe" that will connect two apps, in our case Donately and Walls.io). Enter a name for your Zap, i.e. "Donately to Walls.io". Choose Donately for the trigger app and "New Donation" as the trigger event:πŸ‘‡

Then, sign in to your Donately account: πŸ‘‡


​

You'll see a new window where you can insert the account ID and the API Token of your Donately account. You can find these data in your Donately account under Settings > Integrations > Donately API: πŸ‘‡

Copy your Donately Account ID and the API Token and insert them into the Account ID and the API Token fields: πŸ‘‡

Next, click "Yes, Continue" and then click "Continue":πŸ‘‡

Afterwards, click "Test trigger" and "Continue": πŸ‘‡

6. Choose "Walls.io" for the Action

Next, we're going to set up the Zapier action. Choose Walls.io for the app event and "Create Post" as the Action event:πŸ‘‡

7. Sign in to Walls.io

Afterwards, connect your Walls.io account this way: πŸ‘‡
Click "Choose an account" and then, click "Connect a new account"

You'll see a new window where you can insert the API access token of your social Wall. Copy the API access token of your Wall from step 3 and paste it into the Access Token field:

9. Set up the Action

Next, set up the Zapier action this way:

  • For the Text field select Object Data Person First Name: ..., then type has donated and select Object Data Amount Formatted: ..., type to and select Object Data Campaign Title: ...

  • For the User Name field select Object Data Person First Name: ... and Object Data Person Last Name: ...

If you do not want to show the username on your wall, you can always hide it with a custom CSS snippet, which you can find in this article.
​
Select True for Moderation Status if you want to set your wall to Automatic Moderation. If you prefer to have Manual Moderation (=approve each post manually before it gets displayed on your social Wall), select False.
​

10. Test your Zap and turn it on!

Finally, test your Zap and turn it on:πŸ‘‡
