Absinthe Integration App
Reward users with points for off-chain events
Example: Automatically issue points to users when they are assigned specific roles in your Discord server using Zapier and Absinthe’s API. Simply modify the Zapier Trigger from Discord Role to any other Discord Trigger to award points for other discord events
Setting Up Trigger Of Your Choosing
Choose a trigger that watches for events on the app of your choosing to award points for.
To reward users with points when they receive a specific role in your Discord server, you’ll need to set up a Zap in Zapier that listens for role assignment events and then triggers a point issuance through Absinthe’s API.
