# Power-Tools for Boomi Integration

[use-cases](https://boomi.markusschmidt.pro/power-tools/use-cases "mention") .. how to speed-up your Boomi Integration development

Since I have begun with Boomi in 2019, I was looking for a **convenient way how to document Boomi Integration Components**. Neither *Note Shapes* nor *Process Descriptions* were helpful in any way. It took me five years, until I had got the idea how to solve this challenge. Now, that I have created *Linked-Pages for Boomi Integration*, I am using it every day with all my customers.

{% hint style="info" %}
I wanted to...

* **write documentation with my preferred tool**, \
  like Confluence, Notion, GitBook, ...
* **open my documentation directly from the Boomi Designer** \
  (navigate forth and back)
  * **document any component-type**: processes, profiles, scripts etc.
* **edit documentation side-by-side**
* **link any other web-page** - incl. (Jira) tickets - to my components.
* **share the links** with my team mates and customers
  {% endhint %}

### Link your documentation to an Integration component

* Write your documentation
  * click *Linked-Pages for Boomi Integration* and
  * and select "*Link this page to current component"* - done!

### Jump to your documentation from an Integration component

* click *Linked-Pages for Boomi Integration* and&#x20;
  * select the (documentation) page you want to open - simple as that.
