Create a Zap¶
Info
A "Zap" in Zapier is an automated workflow that connects your apps and services. Each Zap consists of a Trigger (an event that starts the workflow) and Actions (tasks that the workflow performs). For example, a Zap might trigger when a new email arrives (Trigger) and then create a ticket in Daktela (Action). Zaps help automate repetitive tasks without coding.
- Go to Zapier, Click Zaps and Create a new Zap.


Create a Trigger¶
- Select the application where you expect an event to happen, which will then start an action.

Info
When a Trigger is selected in Daktela, Zapier will begin polling. This means it could take from 1 to 15 minutes for Zapier to recognize a Trigger from Daktela and then transmit it to Zapier's system. The duration depends on the version you are using.
- In the application, specify anEvent that will evokeTrigger.
- Click Continueand Choose an Account.
Info
The selected account corresponds with the user’s account that you connected to Zapier in the initial step, when you entered the access token for a specific user whose instance you linked to Zapier.

Creating a Custom Trigger with Daktela and Zapier¶
Do you need a trigger that isn't implemented yet? You can map a Daktela event to a Zapier trigger by following these steps:
- Create a trigger using the Webhooks by Zapier app on the Zapier platform (this feature is available only for paying users).
- On the Test tab, you will see the webhook URL in a format similar to this: https://hooks.zapier.com/hooks/catch/18928315/2b37a7u/
- Copy that link.
- Create an event in Daktela and add the action "Open URL address" using the link from the previous step.
- If you need to pass data from Daktela to Zapier, you can include it within the webhook URL as query parameters.
Create an Action¶
- Select the application where you expect an Action to be triggered.

- Choose a specific type of Event.

- Choose an Account.
Info
The selected account corresponds with the user’s account that you connected to Zapier in the initial step, when you entered the access token for a specific user whose instance you linked to Zapier.
- Choose Action.

Warning
After creating the Trigger and Action, don't forget to click Publish; otherwise, your new Zap won't be activated.
