Zapier

Getting started with Zapier.

Zapier is a no-code automation platform that lets you connect apps with triggers and actions—perfect for turning your Advite alerts into instant workflows.

Zapier supports hundreds of integrations, and would allow you to take your Advite alerts and do things like:

  • post enriched alerts to Discord
  • append rows to Google Sheets or Airtable
  • create Notion pages
  • open HubSpot notes/activities (or enrich contacts)
  • or file tasks in Asana/Trello/ClickUp

Here’s a guide on getting started with Zapier

Note: Zapier, Make, and n8n all offer a variety of connections and enrichments. These tools all bill slightly differently & have different allowances on their free & paid plans. Choose the best tool for you & your business.

Zapier, in particular, requires a paid plan to use Webhooks

1. Add the Webhook to your Zap

For the first trigger, add a Webhook with the Trigger event ”Catch Hook”.

For Reddit, the webhook fields are: type, time, id, title, text, url, subreddit.id, subreddit.name, subreddit.url, user.id, user.name, and user.url

Note: You can name your columns in Google Sheets ANYTHING YOU WANT. The below example names them after the webhook field types for the purpose of this guide
