What is Zapier?

Zapier is an online automation platform that connects over 3,000 apps to make your work more efficient. It allows you to automate tasks between apps without the need for coding or development skills. With Zapier, you can create Zaps, which are automated workflows triggered by a specific event in one app that then performs an action in another app.

How does it work?

Zapier operates on a simple trigger-action mechanism. Here's a breakdown of how it works:

  1. Trigger: The trigger is the event that starts the Zap. It could be a new email, a form submission, or any other event in the connected app.
  2. Action: The action is the task that Zapier performs automatically in response to the trigger. For example, creating a task in a project management tool or sending a notification.
  3. Zap: The entire automated workflow, consisting of a trigger and an action, is known as a Zap.

Zapier supports a wide range of triggers and actions, making it a versatile tool for automating various tasks and processes.
