How does the integration between Adalo and FileMaker work in WEXTL?
WEXTL exposes actions and triggers for Adalo and FileMaker that help you connect apps and automate repetitive tasks [1]. A trigger is an event that happens, an action — a step that performs when the event has occurred.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about connecting Adalo and FileMaker.
Connect your Adalo and FileMaker accounts once, pick an action in one app and an action in the other, then map the fields so data flows automatically between them. [3]
Example: use Adalo's "Create Record" action to perform FileMaker's "Create Record" action. Adalo has 6 actions (including Create Record, Delete Record, and Get Record); FileMaker has 16 actions (including Create Record, Delete Record, and Duplicate Record). Add filters and transforms between steps when you need them. [1]
Yes — pick an action in either app, then an action in the other, and map the fields between them. [2]
No. Adalo-to-FileMaker automations are built visually on the canvas. You can optionally add custom JavaScript with Functions when you need advanced logic. [4]
Yes. Trigger-based automations start the moment Adalo (or FileMaker) fires a new event — webhook-backed apps run within seconds, and polling-only apps re-check on a schedule you control. [7]
A first automation typically takes 5–10 minutes: connect each app's credential once, drop a trigger + action onto the canvas, map the fields, and turn the workflow on.
You can build your Adalo + FileMaker automation on a 3-day trial with every feature unlocked. Cancel anytime. For your protection, a small deposit is charged to your card when your trial starts. It counts toward your first payment and is non-refundable. [8]
