Set the Chargebee trigger as “Subscription created”

Once you have finished creating your playbook, the next step would be to begin with the first action. A playbook always starts with a trigger, which is responsible for detecting changes in your connected applications and responding accordingly.

Add the Chargebee trigger to initiate your playbook's actions when subscriptions are created. Click "Add trigger" in your playbook and choose "Subscription created" from the dropdown menu under Chargebee. This will allow your playbook to automatically identify newly created subscriptions and trigger necessary actions.

If you still need to connect your Chargebee account to Relay.app yet, a prompt will guide you through the process.

Add the "Create customer" step in Stripe

Integrate the Stripe automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt creation of Stripe customers whenever a new subscription is created in Chargebee.

Click the "Add step" button, then locate the "Create customer" automation for Stripe and input the mandatory and relevant details.

If your Stripe account isn't already connected to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Make sure to allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to sync with your Stripe account.

Activate your playbook

Activating your playbook is the last step in the process. Once you turn it on, it will automatically create Stripe customers whenever a new subscription is created in Chargebee without requiring manual intervention.

To activate your playbook, click the toggle button at the header. Before activating, we recommend performing a test run of your playbook to ensure all the steps work seamlessly together.
