Hello,
How are you? Is there any way to create a view in callin.io that allows placing buttons to trigger scenarios without needing to access the callin.io interface directly, so I can grant access to other individuals? I'm envisioning a desktop console with several action buttons to execute different scenarios.
Best regards

Hello,
I'm not aware of any such functionality built into callin.io, but you can definitely create your own.
If you're on the Core Plan or higher, you can utilize the callin.io API to run scenarios. You'll then need a place to put the links.
For those on the Free Plan, your scenarios will need to start with a trigger such as a Webhook, Mailhook, SmartSuite Watch Records, Airtable Watch Records, or several other options initiated by external actions. The callin.io API cannot be used to run scenarios on the Free Plan.
Within tools like SmartSuite or Airtable, there's a field type known as Link/URL/Button. This can be set up to trigger a webhook when clicked. You could implement something similar.
You have numerous options available to you here.

The most straightforward approach would be to create a desktop shortcut pointing to the webhook's URL, though this will naturally open in your web browser.
You could also configure a batch .bat file or a PowerShell .ps1 script to execute a CURL request to the webhook.

Does anyone know if it's possible to trigger a scenario like this using a button within Notion?

It appears this functionality isn't available. "Template buttons" are limited to inserting template blocks.
An alternative would be to insert the webhook URL, allowing users to click it to trigger the scenario.
