Creating a new Branch in TalentLMS

I’m a newbie here making good progress with connecting to Hubspot CRM to TalentLMS to create new new TalentLMS users, add them to courses etc.

What I would also like to do is to create a new Branch in TalentLMS from a field in Hubspot, if the branch doesn’t already exist.

There doesn’t appear to be an available action to create a brand new Branch - only the option to add a user to an existing Branch.

Is there a way I can create this action through Zapier, or is the only option to request TalentLMS to add this to their Zapier integration?

Hi @damo_TS 

The workaround, albeit a more advanced approach, is to use the TalentLMS API: https://www.talentlms.com/pages/docs/TalentLMS-API-Documentation.pdf

See page 36.

This would require using a Webhooks app in the Zap: https://zapier.com/apps/webhook/integrations

Many thanks @Troy Tessalone! I’ll give the webhooks option a go.

Hey @damo_TS,

Were you able to connect to TalentLMS using a Webhooks by Zapier action or did you find an alternative solution?

Please let us know how you got on with this!

I was able to successfully create a new branch and branch logo using a Webhook. The most difficult part for me was determining what to put in the Basic Auth field, which turns out requires the API Key followed by pipe character, then nothing else. eg. APIKEY|

Might be obvious to many, but took a good deal of trial and error for me.
