What is Zapier?
Zapier connects over 6,000 web applications and automates workflows between them — without writing any code. Set up 'Zaps' (automated workflows) like: 'When I get an email with an attachment, save it to Google Drive and notify me on Slack.' It's the duct tape that holds modern SaaS stacks together.
How It Works
Choose a Trigger app and event (e.g., 'New email in Gmail')
Add one or more Action steps (e.g., 'Save attachment to Google Drive')
Publish the Zap and it runs automatically whenever the trigger fires
A Zap consists of a Trigger (something happens in App A) and one or more Actions (do something in App B, C, D). For example: Trigger: 'New row in Google Sheets' → Action 1: 'Create task in Asana' → Action 2: 'Send Slack notification.' Zapier monitors the trigger and executes actions automatically.
Key Features
Why People Use Zapier
