Integrations reference

Every status badge, every field, pause versus disconnect, the "Carried over" badge, and how your credentials are stored.

The field-by-field reference for the Integrations tab. The setup walkthrough is Connecting your tools.

Statuses

Every card carries one badge, and it always answers "is this working right now?"

Badge

What it means

What to do

Connected

Set up, switched on, and forwarding your replies.

Nothing.

Paused

Still set up and your credential is still stored, but switched off — nothing is being forwarded.

Flip the switch back to On when you want it flowing again.

Needs attention

Connected, but the last attempt to use it failed. The card shows the specific error underneath.

Read the message. Most often the key was revoked or expired on the other side — generate a fresh one and reconnect.

Not connected

Available, but you have never set it up (or you disconnected it).

Click Connect if you want it.

A card may also show a Carried over badge alongside its status. That means the connection was migrated from Grassfed's previous system rather than set up by you in this portal — see Carried-over connections below.

If the whole page cannot reach your connection status, a banner at the top says so and every card falls back to showing what is available rather than what is connected. That is a display problem, not a disconnection — refresh in a moment.

The controls on a card

What it does

Connect

Not connected

Opens the setup form.

On / Paused switch

Connected

Pauses or resumes forwarding, without touching your stored credential.

Configure

Connected

Reopens the form with your saved settings filled in, so you can edit them.

Disconnect

Connected

Asks you to confirm, then deletes your stored credential and stops forwarding.

Cancel

Form open

Closes the form without saving.

Pause versus disconnect

These are not the same thing, and the difference is your credential.

Pausing (the On/Paused switch) stops replies flowing to that tool and nothing else. Your key, your Sheet ID and your column mapping all stay exactly where they are. Flip the switch back and it picks up where it left off, with nothing to re-enter. This is the right choice for "not right now" — a quiet season, a sheet you are rebuilding, a CRM you are mid-migration on.

Disconnecting deletes the credential Grassfed stored for you. The confirmation dialog spells out what happens: Grassfed deletes your stored key or token and stops sending replies to that tool, and your existing data in that tool stays exactly where it is — nothing already pushed to your CRM or written to your sheet is touched. You can reconnect whenever you like, but you will have to paste the credential again, because Grassfed no longer has it.

Note — If in doubt, pause

Pausing is completely reversible with one click. Disconnecting is reversible too, but only if you can still lay hands on the key — and most vendors will not show you an existing key twice, so reconnecting usually means generating a new one.

How your credentials are stored

  • The key or token you paste is stored encrypted, separately from the rest of your account settings.

  • It is never displayed again. Once saved, the card shows only the last four characters, written as •••• 8fa2.

  • Grassfed will not read it back to you, email it to you, or prefill it into the form. If you need the value itself, get a new one from the vendor.

  • Disconnecting deletes the stored credential rather than hiding it.

Carried-over connections

Some agents' integrations were migrated across from Grassfed's previous system when the portal launched. Those arrive already connected, with their settings intact and a Carried over badge beside the status.

A carried-over connection behaves identically to one you set up yourself — same statuses, same switch, same Configure and Disconnect. The badge is purely there so you are not left wondering how something you never set up came to be connected. The one case worth acting on is a carried-over card showing Needs attention: an old credential has stopped working, so generate a fresh key or token and reconnect.
