## Gong integration in Chili Piper

Before adding records to Gong Engage Flows, you’ll need to connect Gong in Chili Piper.

- In the **Command Center**, click **Integrations** in the left-hand menu. ![01-admin-center-nav.png](https://help.chilipiper.com/hc/article_attachments/48644312974739)

- On the **Built-In Integrations** tab, scroll to **Sales Automation & Engagement** and click **Connect** next to **Gong**. ![02-integrations-gong-connected.png](https://help.chilipiper.com/hc/article_attachments/48644348332563)

You’re ready when the integration shows a **Connected** status.

**⚠️ Important**
If Gong was previously connected, you must **disconnect and reconnect** it to grant the additional scopes required for Gong Engage (read workspaces, read flows, assign to flow).

### Integration user requirements

The user who authenticates the Gong integration must have a **Gong Engage seat**.

That integration user can access:

- **Company flows** – shared across the Gong organization

- **Personal flows** – created by the integration user

- **Shared flows** – shared with the integration user by others

## Add Leads and Contacts to a Gong Engage Flow

Once Gong is connected, you can add Leads or Contacts to a Gong Engage Flow from any Lead- or Contact-triggered Distro router.

- In the **Distro Flow Builder**, click the **+** icon to add a node, then select **Add to Flow** under **Integrations**. ![03-flow-builder-node-picker.png](https://help.chilipiper.com/hc/article_attachments/48644348333331)

- Configure the node in the side panel: ![04-add-to-flow-panel.png](https://help.chilipiper.com/hc/article_attachments/48644502279315)

**Select Gong Flow** – Choose the Gong Engage Flow

- **Flow Assignee** – Select who will own the flow:
**Lead Owner / Contact Owner**

- **Selected User from Workspace**

**⚠️ Assignment requirement**
If you choose **Lead Owner** or **Contact Owner**, the record must have been assigned earlier in the router using an **Assign & Update Ownership** node. 

If you select **Selected User from Workspace**, no prior assignment is required.

- Publish your router. When the router runs, you’ll see the execution result in the router logs: ![05-router-logs-success.png](https://help.chilipiper.com/hc/article_attachments/48644460157971)

- In Gong, the Lead or Contact will appear in the selected flow with the configured sender: ![06-gong-contact-in-flow.png](https://help.chilipiper.com/hc/article_attachments/48644502282899)

## Limitations

- If the Lead or Contact already exists in the selected Gong Engage Flow, the node will fail.

- In router logs, this will appear as **Add to Gong Flow – Failed**.
