Why is this more than just notifications?
In a world where users expect instant responses, any delay in reaction is already a setback. Every client action, transaction, or data change is a chance not just to respond, but to anticipate, support, and engage.
That’s exactly what the Events module in OneEntry is for. It's not just a tool, but a true conductor of automation. It reacts to data changes, sends notifications, triggers integrations, and does it all without a single line of backend code.
It’s not just about saving time. It’s about unlocking a new level of interaction with both users and systems.
What the Events Module in OneEntry Solves and Why Your Project Needs It
As your project grows and the number of actions you need to track, notify, forward, or log increases, it becomes clear: you need a centralized event system. The Events module in OneEntry was built for exactly this. It serves as the central nerve center that connects business logic, user notifications, and external systems. It handles routine tasks, freeing up developer resources and reducing support load.
Here are just some of the tasks it handles quickly, accurately, and reliably:
🔔 User notifications: Order status updated? Item back in stock? Registration successful? The user is notified instantly — automatically.
🔄 Integration with external systems: CRM, ERP, mailing services, accounting platforms. Events can be connected directly through logic configured in LoCode.
🧩 Automation without burdening the team: Support is no longer distracted by routine tasks, and developers no longer spend hours implementing logic that can now be configured visually in just a few clicks.
How It Works: A Technical Look at the Events Module in OneEntry
The event configuration interface in OneEntry is not based on code. It is based on logic. Even if you are not familiar with programming, you can easily configure the necessary reaction to any event in the system.
Here is how it works:
Selecting a module and event type
You begin by selecting an entity, for example “Products” or “Users,” and choosing the type of event. It can be a change in order status or the registration of a new user.
Flexible condition logic
You can set multiple conditions at once. For example, the event may be triggered only if the product quantity becomes 0 and its status is “Active.” You can combine parameters in any way, because the system supports complex logic.
Defining the action
What should happen when the conditions are met? OneEntry offers several options:
- Sending push notifications
- Sending email messages
- Transmitting via WebSocket
- Integration through a dedicated module, if data needs to be sent to an external system, such as a CRM
Personalization and frequency
Using markers, you can dynamically insert values such as the user’s name, order number, or confirmation code. You can also configure whether the event should be triggered once or every time the conditions are met.
Practice: How to Configure a “User Registration” Event
Theory is good. But let’s take a look at how it works in practice using a classic scenario: registration of a new user.
Set up the event in just a couple of minutes:
- Select the forms module and the event type “Registration.”
- Set the message text: “Welcome, {{name}}! Your code: {{code}}.” Using markers, the system will automatically insert the correct data.
- Add any additional fields (attributes) so the notification contains exactly the details that matter to you.
And that’s it. The system automatically tracks the right moment to generate the notification and sends it where it needs to go.
OneEntry NPM Helper Beta — an Integration Accelerator for Event-Based Systems
To make life easier for developers and speed up event implementation, we created the OneEntry NPM Helper (currently in Beta). This is not just a utility library. It is an integration accelerator built specifically for teams working with an event-driven model.
Here’s what it can do:
- Simplifies and automates API requests so you no longer have to build payloads manually
- Allows you to create and edit events through a convenient interface
- Generates data types for TypeScript and other environments, minimizing errors and increasing stability
With NPM Helper, you can integrate the OneEntry event system into any application in a matter of hours instead of days. This is especially valuable when working in fast-paced sprints, with tight deadlines, and in high-velocity development environments.
How OneEntry Outperforms Firebase, AWS, Supabase, and Others: A Real Comparison
In a world where every second platform promises “flexibility” and “simplicity,” it’s easy to lose track. But when it comes to real-world tasks like configuring events, sending notifications, and reacting automatically to user actions, the difference becomes clear.
🔀 1. Truly Flexible Event Logic, Without Hacks or Workarounds
While Firebase or AWS Amplify restrict you in terms of event triggers, OneEntry lets you freely combine multiple conditions within a single event.
Example: an event triggers only when the product quantity equals 0 and the status is set to Active. Everything works without writing code or inventing workarounds. The setup remains clear and visual.
This reduces the complexity of your logic, minimizes custom code, and speeds up delivery.
📣 2. Notifications: Built-in, Production-Ready, and Multi-Channel
Platforms like Strapi, Directus, Contentful and Shopify often require external tools just to send an email, push notification, or WebSocket message. In OneEntry, this works out of the box.
Support for major channels, such as email, push, WebSocket, is included by default, along with ready integrations for CRM and ERP systems. This saves on infrastructure costs and eliminates unnecessary third-party services.
🧩 3. Configuration Without the Pain: Less Code, More Control
Supabase and Payload CMS are powerful tools, but when you need advanced logic, you end up writing SQL queries, configuring middleware, or digging into Node.js code. With OneEntry, everything is set up through a visual interface.
The marker system lets you insert variables like user name or order ID without touching a templating engine.
Even a junior developer can build a complete flow without dealing with backend code.
OneEntry is not just another cloud platform. It is a universal backend toolkit with built-in modules that cover events, notifications, and integrations without extra libraries or server-side magic.
Features and Configuration
OneEntry does not require developers to go above and beyond. Everything you need is already built into the architecture, thoughtfully designed, transparent, and well documented.
Here are the key features that make working with the platform as efficient as possible:
Managing attributes and events in just a few clicks Creating, editing, and removing any parameters is done through a visual interface without manually editing schemas or writing complex logic.
Markers for dynamic personalization
The marker system makes it easy to insert variables into notifications, such as {{userName}}, {{orderId}}, or {{confirmationCode}}, turning templates into personalized messages.Ready-to-use integration scenarios
The documentation includes step-by-step instructions for connecting to external systems such as CRMs, ERPs, or marketing platforms — no backend expertise required.
Business Impact: When Numbers Speak Louder Than Words
A tool is not valuable just because it feels “convenient.” It’s valuable when it delivers real results. And this is exactly where OneEntry proves its worth:
–40% in response time to user requests, thanks to automation and fast event routing
–30% load on support and backend teams, as routine tasks no longer require manual effort
+20% in repeat purchases, driven by timely, personalized notifications that build trust and show care
