Enabling the RepairShopr Integration
Integrations can be enabled at any time, during Hudu environment testing or in production.
Once enabled, integrations can be merged into existing documentation based on predefined rules.
This allows you to configure the integration upfront or connect it later as needed.
-
To enable the RepairShopr integration:
Navigate to the Hudu admin area (Admin → Integrations).
Select RepairShopr from the list.
Setting up the Integration in Hudu
Step 1. Connect to RepairShopr
- Enter RepairShopr domain
- Enter RepairShopr API Key
-
Select Default Asset Layout
Choose an asset layout (must be active asset layout) from the list to designate as the default asset layout
-
The RepairShopr integration requires one default asset layout for:
- Contacts
If you don't see/have not created any asset layouts yet, you’ll need to create these. Visit Asset layouts for additional information!
- Select any additional options:
- Auto-update names of Assets - If name is changed in RepairShopr, the name will automatically be updated in Hudu
- Do not update basic company details - This will prevent the company details from being changed in Hudu if they are changed in RepairShopr
- Save the Settings
Step 2. Test connection and run an initial sync
- On the integration overview page, click Test Connection
- If successful, start an initial sync to bring in RepairShopr companies
Make sure to test the integration for a successful connection before continuing; do not continue on until you see a connection successful message display.
Step 3. Match Companies
-
Before companies from RepairShopr can be brought into Hudu, they must be matched to:
Existing companies in Hudu, or
New companies you create in Hudu
Hudu recommends matching one company first for testing to ensure data imports correctly
-
When the integration runs successfully for the first time:
Companies from RepairShopr are imported
They appear in the Matched Companies List for the integration
Navigate to Hudu Admin → Integrations → RepairShopr
Open the integration and click Match Companies
-
Review the list of companies and choose one of the following options:
Bulk create and/or match all companies
Match a company to an existing Hudu company
Create a new matched company in Hudu from a RepairShopr company
Leave a company unmatched (it and its data will not be imported)
After matching companies, re-run the integration import to populate data for the matched or newly created companies
FAQ
Answer: Native integrations will automatically re-sync (update) every 3 hours.
You can also use either the global or the card-specific re-sync features to refresh native integration syncs at any point.
Answer: If the RepairShopr sync has been loading for a significant amount of time (it can take up to 10 minutes), follow the steps below:
-
- Test the connection to ensure Hudu and RepairShopr are communicating correctly.
- Verify your RepairShopr credentials.
- Refresh the page (while a sync is actively running).
- Stop the sync and restart the sync.
Answer: It should appear on subsequent re-syncs. If it is still not appearing, ensure that it has not been archived; and still exists in your sort rules.
Notes: Active integrations sync automatically every 3 hours; manual re-syncs can be performed either within an integrations’ settings page or by clicking the top right re-sync button.
