How does the integration between Basecamp and Confluence work in WEXTL?
WEXTL exposes actions and triggers for Basecamp and Confluence 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 Basecamp and Confluence.
Connect your Basecamp and Confluence accounts once, pick a trigger in one app and an action in the other, then map the fields so data flows automatically between them. [3]
Example: when Basecamp's "Watch New Projects" fires, WEXTL can "Check Site Access by Email" in Confluence. Basecamp has 3 triggers (including Watch New Projects, Watch Project Events, and Watch Recordings); Confluence has 139 actions (including Check Site Access by Email, Convert Content IDs to Types, and Create Attachment Property). Add filters and transforms between steps when you need them. [1]
Yes — the integration works in both directions. Use each app's triggers to start a workflow and the other app's actions to update it. [2]
No. Basecamp-to-Confluence 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 Basecamp (or Confluence) 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 Basecamp + Confluence 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]
