# Configuring Temporal

> Get Temporarl setup in FlowEQ

Temporal.io automates complex tasks with code, running processes across systems without further input once triggered. It pairs perfectly with FlowEQ, allowing you to pull data from team members and systems, like your CRM, to trigger Temporal's workflows in the background. Follow this guide to activate the integration so FlowEQ workflows can call Temporal's endpoints and trigger automations seamlessly.

## How to set up the Temporal integration

1. Collect the following details from your Temporal instance to set up a single endpoint. The set up additional endpoints, follow this guide again.
   * Your organization's endpoint's Base URL
   * The Basic Auth API key used to authenticate with that same endpoint
2. [Click here to set up the Temporal integration](https://next.floweq.com/integrations/temporal), or go to [next.floweq.com](https://next.floweq.com) -> Integrations -> Temporal
3. Enter an *Instance Nickname* to give this endpoint a recognizable name

* Use *Instance Nickname* to give this endpoint a recognizable name, like **Team Workflows**. FlowEQ connects to multiple Temporal endpoints, so you'll use this nickname to identify this endpoint and its Base URL in the Temporal Flow steps

4. Use *Base URL* to enter the URL you collected in Step 1
5. Use *API Key* to enter the key you collected in Step 1
6. Click **Connect Temporal**

## Testing the Client

1. To test that your endpoint was set up correctly, enter `/health` into the *Test Endpoint Response* field
2. Click **Test Client**. If successful, you will see a *Client test successful!* message, like the below image
