Send UK planning applications to your CRM, BI and mapping tools
Every guide uses the same building blocks that are already live: a saved Plota alert, a signed webhook, and the REST API. Some tools receive matches as they happen; others read the API on their own schedule. Find your trade first, then your tool.
