Automate Ramp
Watch company card spend and expense hygiene in Ramp without opening the admin console. Flag big purchases as they clear and chase employees whose transactions still lack a receipt. Describe what you want to your AI assistant, check what it will do, and it keeps running.
Try asking
Create a ClickRuntime automation: when a Ramp card transaction clears and it's over $1,000, post the cardholder, merchant and amount to #finance in Slack.
Paste it into your assistant. It tells you what it will send or change before it runs live.

Your own rules
Conditions, thresholds, filters and exceptions, written the way you'd explain them to a colleague.
Any number of apps
One automation can read from one app and update several others. Over 248 apps are ready, and anything with an API works too.
AI where it helps
Summaries, classification, extraction and drafts use ClickRuntime's built-in AI, with no extra key.
On a schedule or on each event
Runs as often as every 5 minutes, or the moment an app sends an event, and keeps track of what it already handled.
For example, ask your assistant
Every morning, list Ramp transactions over $1,000 from yesterday and any transactions missing a receipt for more than 7 days.
Every Friday, post Ramp card spend by department for the week to our #finance Slack channel.
Every day, find Ramp transactions without receipts, add them to Google Sheets, and send each cardholder a Gmail reminder with the merchant and amount.

Setup
Connect Ramp
Ramp connects through a developer app that a Ramp admin creates for your own business, using the client credentials grant. ClickRuntime exchanges its client ID and secret for an access token.
Ramp
Fintech / Spend management
- As a Ramp admin or business owner, go to Company, then Developer, and choose Create New App.
- Under grant types, add Client Credentials.
- Allow the scopes your automations need, such as
transactions:readandusers:read, and addbills:readorreimbursements:readif you want those too. - Copy the client ID and client secret.
- In the ClickRuntime dashboard, open Connections, choose Ramp and enter the client ID and secret.
Good to know
Ramp limits that affect automations
- Only a Ramp admin or business owner can create the developer app.
- Ramp access tokens usually last about 10 days and come without a refresh token. ClickRuntime requests a new one with your client ID and secret when it runs out.
- A token only carries the scopes requested for it, and only ones the app allows. Missing scopes mean refused requests.
- Ramp's sandbox and live account need separate developer apps.
