A workflow like this will save time for employees who, without the Zap, would have to manually email anyone who contacted them on Facebook, as well as notify the Slack channel. This then prompts a thank you email sent to the customer, plus a Slack message sent to a specific channel related to the message. The trigger is a customer contacting the business through Facebook. Here’s an example of a Zap workflow that connects Facebook, Gmail, and Slack. Zaps are comprised of a trigger (the event that starts a Zap) and an action (an event a Zap performs). You can create Zaps (the name for the workflow) as simple as one step, or much more complicated ones depending on your level of expertise and interest in setting it up. Zapier is extremely powerful because it integrates thousands of applications. Zapier uses basic coding fundamentals of “If this, then that.” For example, if I star an email in Gmail, then it gets added as a task to a specific Todoist project. Zapier allows you to automate repetitive tasks by linking two separate apps/websites that may not have originally been programmed to work together. After researching different websites, I decided to try out Zapier, an app automation and integration tool. After constantly jumping back and forth between all of these applications, I decided to look into a way to make them work together more efficiently. I use a mix of Todoist, Spark (email), Google Calendar, and Slack. As a total productivity nerd, I’ve tried many different applications to speed up my workflow and day-to-day task management, both at work and at home. ![]()
