Every instance of Malcolm! comes complete with a hosted hub. But you might not want to use it and may prefer to turn it off. No problem! To turn off your hosted hub go the settings section of MyMalcolm, then select "visibility" in the vertical left hand navigation. You can then select "Disable the instance Hosted Hub" Once disabled, any traffic hitting your Hosted Hub URL will see a 403 error. If you'd prefer to redirect that traffic somewhere else you can do this by selecting "Advanced" in the vertical left hand navigation then entering your redirect URL.

You can use your own domain or sub-domain with Malcolm! There is no extra cost for doing this. To set this up go to the Settings Section in MyMalcolm then Custom Domains. Enter your custom domain and you will be given instructions on how to verify domain control/ownership and set up your DNS. We can host on SSL too and we'll automatically generate a secure certifcate for you. Once again, there is no extra cost for doing this! Once you have set up your custom domain or sub-domain both that and your malcolm.support / malcolm.app URL will work and serve content. If you don't want the .malcolm domains to work just select the redirect option and any traffic will be redirected.

Malcolm! now plugs into [Zapier](https://zapier.com). Zapier is an integration platform - [it connects thousands of apps to other apps.](https://zapier.com/apps) In the context of Malcolm! this means that when a Workflow is completed you can use our Zapier integration to route some or all of the data that has been collected from that Workflow through into Zapier and then in turn onto thousands of other apps or services. Here is how to set things up: 1. Firstly set up and publish a workflow in Malcolm! that collects the data you wish to move into other applications 2. In MyMalcolm go to the Settings Section, then Workflows, then Integrations, then click on Zapier 3. Sign up for an account at [Zapier](https://zapier.com) if you don't already have one - it is free - or login if you do have an account. 4. Accept the invite to Malcolm! 5. Still in Zapier, click "Make a Zap" 6. Your trigger app should be Malcolm! and you want it to trigger on a new Workflow completion so hit "Save + Continue" once you have selected this option 7. You now need to connect your Malcolm! instance to your Zapier account - click "Connect an Account" and follow the instructions. Once connected click "Save and Continue" 8. Choose a workflow then "Continue" 9. Wait for a sample to load and then click "Continue" 10. Choose an action App of your choice and configure as required - the exact process will vary from action App to action App but you are likely to need to agree some permissions and choose some options. Once done click "Save + Continue" or "Finish" 11. You will then be able to name your Zap and choose whether it is on or not 12. Back in MyMalcolm, if you find the Workflow you used in your Zap in the Library, select it, then go to Configure then Integrations you should be able to see Zapier has been added. You can turn the integation off here if you want and/or configure it to be conditional (for example to only run when certain choices have been made on a Workflow). Remember that Malcolm! always stores your data (which you can download anytime) - so if Zapier goes down or your integration doesn't seem to work properly no data will be lost. We are hugely excited about the possibilities opened up via Zapier - we hope you are too! If you have questions or need a hand setting things up just [contact us](https://support.malcolm.support/workflows/submit-support-ticket) and we'll be happy to help.

Integrations are a way of passing data you collect in a Malcolm! Workflow into other third party software or systems. We currently offer integrations with: * [Dropbox](http://www.dropbox.com) * [Mailchimp](http://www.mailchimp.com) * [Mandrill](http://www.mandrill.com) * [Twilio](http://www.twilio.com) * [Zendesk](http://www.zendesk.com) * and over 1,500 over apps via Zapier.com ([more info here](https://support.malcolm.support/faqs/how-do-i-use-zapier-to-connect-malcolm-to-other-applications-or-services-i-use)) **Configuring Integrations** Once you have created your Workflow, go to the Configure section and select Integrations. There you can link your third party accounts at our integration partners to your Malcolm! Instance by providing your credentials. Once your accounts are linked you can configure integrations with that partner and choose the data from your Workflow that is passed across. You can configure whether data is passed on every Workflow completion or only when certain conditions are met. It is possible to have multiple integrations so, for example, you could create a form which collected details from a new customer including a copy of their ID. You could then subscribe that new customer to a Mailchimp mailing list and store their uploaded ID documents in your Dropbox account by creating two integrations. **Customer Consent** A reminder that it is good practice - and in certain territories a legal requirement - to ensure that your customers actively consent to their data being passed to third party companies who, like Malcolm!, act as data processors on your behalf. You act as the data controller. Most companies handle this consent via provisions in their Privacy Policy which their customers agree to. It is good practice therefore to include a check box in your Workflows that reminds customers of your Privacy Policy and their continuing agreement of it. **Integration Failures** Sometimes integrations may fail. This could be for a variety of reasons, for example the integration partner's API's may be down and/or there may be a problem with your account at the third party provider (for example your Dropbox account may be over quota). Firstly don't worry re losing customer data - Malcolm! will always store any user submitted data so if there is a problem with an integration you won't lose any data. When a problem occurs we'll create a notification to let you know and periodically retry the integration. You can review the Integration logs and retry a failed integration event manually via MyMalcolm (navigate to the Workflow via Library then select Integration logs) **More Integrations coming soon!** We will be adding more and more integrations to Malcolm! in the coming months. If there is a particular integration you'd like us to add [please let us know! ](https://support.malcolm.support/workflows/feedback)

You can easily add the Facebook Pixel to any content you create in Malcolm! such as Workflows and FAQs. There are two ways you can do this. The first is to add the Facebook Pixel code directly into the settings area of MyMalcolm - [for more details see this FAQ.](https://support.malcolm.support/faqs/can-i-put-tracking-tags-in-my-faqs-workflows-support-hub). The other way is to use Google Tag Manager. You add your GTM container id in the settings area of MyMalcolm and then add your Facebook Pixel via the Google Tag Manager interface.

Sometimes it can be useful to receive an email when a new FAQ or Workflow is published on your instance. This feature is turned off by default - to turn it on follow these steps. From the MyMalcolm control panel area, click your name at the top of the screen where it says "Logged in as" You'll then be taken to your personal preferences. If you select the "Notifications" tab on the left you'll be able to edit the notifications you receive. Remember to hit "Save" once you are done! Note that your notificatons are based on an instance. If you are a user on more than one instance you should first switch to the instance you wish to adjust notifications for. You can do this using the drop down selector at the top right of the screen. You can therefore have different notification preferences for different instances. The notificiation preferences you choose are personal to you and will not affect the notifications of other team members on an instance.

You can delete your instance or change the plan it is on anytime via MyMalcolm. To delete an instance visit the Settings section of MyMalcolm. You can also move between different types of plan in the Billing section of MyMalcolm. Remember that different plans have different quotas so you might need to reduce the number of FAQs you have (for example) if you are moving from a Team to a Micro plan. You can cancel an Instance anytime although bear in mind that Micro and Team plans are billed monthly in advance and you won't get a refund for any unused portion of the month you have paid for when you cancel. If you are on an Enterprise plan talk to your Account Manager for any changes or cancellation requests.

You can choose the time zone your Malcolm! instance runs in MyMalcolm via Settings / Instance / General. When you select times/dates in MyMalcolm eg for things like scheduled publishing these should reflect the time zone of the instance rather than your local time zone (which might be different). Similarly when you export data and receive email alerts from Malcolm! these will reflect the instance time zone.

Each instance has an owner. This is the master user who is ultimately responsible for the instance. If you are on a Team or Enterprise plan you can invite other users to the instance too. If you need to transfer ownership of the instance to another user (for instance if you are leaving a company or organisation) you can do that as long as the proposed new owner agrees. To do this go to the Settings Section of MyMalcolm, within the instance you wish to transfer ownership of. Navigate to Ownership. Remember that billing belongs to an instance so you may wish to update the billing details of an instance before you transfer it to someone else.

Invisible tags are a useful way you can influence search results. Like normal tags they will contribute to search ranking of an FAQ, but they won't be shown on the front-end to your users. If you therefore want a particular phrase to return a particular FAQ but your content doesn't feature that phrase or is being out ranked by another FAQ invisible tags can help. You can make current tags invisible or set up new invisible tags in MyMalcolm via FAQs / Tags: You then apply tags as usual via the configure area of the individual FAQ:
