This article gets you started with the Display.Church (D.C) Planning Center (PCO) integration.
HOW TO GET TO THE INTEGRATIONS PAGE
Log in to D.C.
Option 1 (for first-timers only)In your Dashboard, click on Integrate with the platform of your choice. D.C will take you to the Integrations page.
NOTE: This is a one-time method. After you set up at least 1 integration, this option will be greyed out as completed.
To set up further integrations or manage existing integrations, use the method below. | |
| Option 2 (good for first-time and every time)Look at the main menu in the left-hand most column of your screen. Choose Integrations. |
Either way, the Integrations page will open.
Here is a closer look at the PCO integration...
| Why do some integrations have gold crowns? The gold crown means that the integration is premium (only available with paid plans). |
