Integrate services with Zapier

Do you want to know how to integrate two services without a line of code? Then this article is for you.
If you are an ordinary user and have no technical knowledge and coding skills, but need to combine data from different services with each other, then you need an integration service. One of the most popular services of this kind is Zapier.

What is Zapier?

Zapier is an integration platform, a kind of online automation builder that helps businesses automate their simple, repetitive business processes and make connections between two different web services. And this all happens without writing any code.

Integrations can be costly in terms of time and money (just their development). In addition, the quality of the integration depends on the developer who implements it. Therefore, the integration developed for the client does not always satisfy him in full. Another important point is that if there are any changes in one service, you need to contact the developer again to update the integration. These are the moments that made it possible for integration services like Zapier to appear.

How to set up integration via Zapier?

To integrate between two services using Zapier, you need to:

    icon
    Select the two web services you want to integrate;
    icon
    Define actions in the first application that will trigger actions in the second application. As soon as the expected activity (action) occurs in one of the services, it automatically performs the required action in one or more other services, depending on the settings;
    icon
    Connect the services to Zapier;
    icon
    Configure the scenario (select the activities and triggers offered by Zapier). Note that if actions are performed in one service, the service can be integrated with itself.

Customized scenarios in Zapier are called "Zaps". After creating a Zap, the user (the one who set up the integrations) can see how the Zap works and what actions it performs.

They can also be used to set up periodic execution of business processes according to the scheme "If A happens, then B must be done" without any programming. They are also called "Zap-templates".

What does the cost of Zapier depend on?

Zapier has a free plan, which is enough for simple integrations, but the number of integrations is limited. With commercial plans, the more expensive the subscription, the more integrations you can make and the more different services you can use. Zapier supports over 3000 different systems and includes the ability to create complex integrations with many of them.

Conclusions

Let's summarize the above.
