VWO has updated the configuration interface across all integrations. This update makes the setup more flexible, scalable, and easier to manage across different use cases. As a result, some steps in the existing Integrations documentation on our Knowledge Base may not match the current UI.
This article helps you understand what’s changed, how to set up the integrations through the new UI, and how to map older instructions to the updated experience.
It covers the following:
- What's Changed?
- Create a Connector
- Delete a Connector
- Impact on Existing Integrations Post the UI Update
- Map Existing Documentation to the New UI
- Why this Change?
What's Changed?
-
No Enable Integration Step
Old UI Earlier, users had to toggle an integration on before configuring it.New UI
This step has now been removed. The integration is now considered enabled automatically as soon as you create a connector for it. -
From Checkboxes to Connectors
Previously, users had to configure integrations by selecting checkboxes and then entering configuration details.
Now, configuration checkboxes are replaced by connectors. A connector holds all the settings for a specific integration instance. To use an integration, you must create a connector and provide the required connector details during the setup.
Create a Connector
Follow these steps any time an existing article prompts you to enable an integration or select a checkbox on the Config page.
- Go to the integration page in VWO, for example, the BigQuery integration page.
- On the Config tab, click Create Connector.
- Fill in the connector details. See the field reference below for guidance on each field.
- Click Create Connector to save.
The integration is now enabled and active.
Connector Field Reference
Connector name
A label you choose to identify this connector. It is not retrieved from the third-party tool and has no technical requirement. Pick any name that helps you recognize it later.
Examples: 6sense - Production, My 6sense account, 6sense Q3 Campaign
Other fields, such as API keys or account IDs, are specific to each integration. Refer to the individual integration article for information on how to enter data in those fields.
Delete a Connector
Deleting a connector immediately disables the integration. Keep the following in mind before proceeding.
To delete a connector:
- Go to the integration page.
- On the Config tab, find the connector you want to remove.
- Click Delete next to the connector name.
- Confirm the deletion when prompted.
Once deleted, the integration stops working immediately. If you need the integration active again, follow the steps in the Create a Connector section above.
Impact on Existing Integrations Post the UI Update
If you had integrations enabled before this UI update, your configuration has been carried over automatically. You do not need to set up anything up again.
On the integration’s Config tab, you will see a connector already present, labeled Default. This represents your previous configuration, and the integration continues to work as before.
Map Existing Documentation to the New UI
If you are using existing knowledge base articles (with references from the old UI), use the following mapping to interpret instructions in the new UI:
If the article says |
Do this instead |
| Enable the integration. |
Create a connector for that integration. The integration is enabled automatically once the connector is created. |
| Go to the Config page and select a checkbox. | Go to the Config page and click Add Connector. |
| Update the configuration after enabling the integration. | Enter details while creating the connector. |
| Disable the integration. |
Delete the connector. The integration is disabled immediately. |
Example
Old Workflow:
- Go to the BigQuery integration page.
- Switch on the toggle to enable the integration.
- Go to the integration’s Config tab.
- Select the required checkbox(es) and click Save.
- Click Connect BigQuery.
- Enter the configuration details and click Create Connection.
New Workflow:
- Go to the BigQuery integration page.
- On the Config tab, click Create Connector.
- Enter the connector details.
- Click Create Connector.
Why this Change?
This update helps us:
- Simplifies how integrations are configured.
- Supports more flexible and scalable use cases.
- Provides a consistent setup experience across integrations.
