Web Integration

Zynk's Web integration automates the jobs people do in a web browser: filling in forms, entering data on portals, collecting structured data from web pages and downloading files on a schedule. It suits operations and finance teams who rely on supplier or customer websites, and it passes what it gathers to the ERP, accounting or CRM system behind them.

Benefits

Why businesses connect Web

Browser chores handled

Repetitive web tasks, such as entering the same order details into a portal or submitting a form for every new record, run inside a Zynk workflow instead of on someone's screen. Your team gets that time back for work that needs judgement.

Data from pages into records

Structured data on a web page can be collected and turned into records for your other systems, which removes the copying and pasting that leads to typing errors and missed rows.

Downloads on a timetable

Files that are only published on a website, such as reports and data exports, can be downloaded on a schedule and handed straight to the next step of the workflow. Nobody has to remember to log in and fetch them.

One step in a bigger process

Web Automation is a task like any other in Zynk, so its output can be converted, checked and imported into Sage, Business Central, Salesforce or HubSpot during the same run.

Work done before the office opens

Because workflows run on a schedule, portal updates and downloads can happen overnight, and the results are waiting in your systems when the team starts work. Anything that did not complete is reported first thing.

The problem

Why integrate Web?

Not every website your business depends on offers a way to exchange data with your systems. Supplier portals, customer ordering sites and online reports often only work through a browser, so somebody logs in, clicks through the same screens and copies data across by hand, day after day.

Without integration

  • Staff rekeying orders into a supplier's website line by line
  • Information copied from web pages into spreadsheets
  • Someone logging in every morning to download the latest file
  • Errors from tired eyes and endless copy and paste
  • Portal jobs that stall when the one person who knows them is away

With Zynk

  • Order details are entered on the portal automatically from your ERP
  • Structured data is collected and passed straight to your systems
  • Files download on a schedule and are processed straight away
  • The same steps run in exactly the same way every time
  • The steps live in a workflow that runs whoever is in the office

How it works

How the Web integration works

  1. Step 1: Describe the job

    We agree which website is involved, which pages and actions are needed, what data should be entered or collected and which files should be downloaded.

  2. Step 2: Build the automation

    Zynk's Web Automation task is configured to carry out those steps, taking its input from your ERP, accounting system or CRM where data needs to be entered.

  3. Step 3: Connect the output

    Collected data and downloaded files are converted and imported into the target system by Zynk's other connectors, all within the same workflow.

  4. Step 4: Schedule and monitor

    The workflow runs at the times you choose. Errors, such as a page that has changed its layout, are reported so the automation can be updated.

Web and Sage 200

Take purchase orders raised in Sage 200 and enter them on a supplier's ordering website, so buyers stop typing the same order a second time.

Web integration FAQs

What can the Zynk Web integration automate?
It automates actions people normally carry out in a web browser, including submitting forms, entering data, collecting structured data from pages and downloading files. Each action runs as a step in a Zynk workflow, so it can be combined with imports into your other systems.
When is web automation the right choice?
It suits websites and portals you use regularly that offer no other way to send or receive data. Where a system has a dedicated Zynk connector or an API, that is usually the better route, and we will recommend it during scoping.
Can Zynk download files from a website automatically?
Yes. A workflow can download files from a site on a schedule and pass them to the next step, for example converting a CSV file and importing the rows into Sage, Business Central or Xero, without anyone logging in to fetch them.
Can web automation enter orders into a supplier portal?
Yes. Order details held in your ERP or accounting system can be entered on a supplier's website by the Web Automation task, so buyers no longer copy each line by hand. We confirm the portal's screens and the data involved during scoping.
What happens if the website changes?
Web automation follows the steps a person would take, so a change to a page's layout or fields can stop it working. Zynk reports the failure so it can be reviewed, and the automation is updated to match the new page.
Do I need developers to use the Web integration?
No. Web automation is configured as part of a Zynk Workflow project, our low-code platform, and our team can build and maintain it for you. Your staff only need to tell us which site, which steps and which data are involved.
Can collected web data go into my CRM?
Yes. Data gathered from web pages can be mapped to records in Salesforce, HubSpot or another CRM that Zynk connects to, creating new records or updating existing ones. That keeps information your team used to copy by hand current in the system they work in.
