Zapier
Zapier is an online automation tool that connects various web applications and services to automate workflows without requiring programming knowledge. Users can create "Zaps" that trigger actions between apps based on specific triggers.
Zapier supports over 3,000 apps, including Google Workspace, Slack, Trello, Mailchimp, and Salesforce. Users select the apps, define triggers and actions, and Zapier takes care of the rest. For example, a Zap can automatically add new email subscribers to a Mailchimp list or send a Slack notification when a new task is created in Trello.
An example of a simple Zap:
- Trigger: A new contact is added in Google Contacts.
- Action: The contact is added to Salesforce.
In summary, Zapier is a user-friendly tool for automating tasks and connecting web applications, enhancing productivity and reducing manual processes.
