FAQ

Common questions

Can Knit build “Update bugs when tasks close” between ActiveCollab and Sifter?

Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches ActiveCollab and Sifter's public API docs (or your own uploaded docs) and builds a working workflow, whether or not either app already has a pre-built connector.

How long does it take to build?

Minutes to a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.

Why connect a bug tracker to a project management tool?

Testers work in Sifter, but the team plans in ActiveCollab. Syncing bugs between them means fixes are prioritized with the rest of the work.

Can completed tasks mark bugs as fixed?

Yes. When a task is completed in ActiveCollab, you can update the linked bug in Sifter so testers know to verify it.
