Who it's for

  • Operations and RevOps teams that need to automate handoffs and work across their existing business apps.
  • IT and security teams that need app access controls, action restrictions, managed connections, and visibility into workflow activity.
  • Developers and AI teams connecting assistants or custom applications to business tools through MCP or the Zapier SDK.

How it fits your workflow

Build a workflow by connecting apps and defining triggers and actions, or start from a template. The page describes use cases including lead routing, ticket handling, campaign reporting, and document processing.

For AI use, connect an assistant through Zapier MCP or use the SDK for a custom app. Configure the connection for the chosen client and sign in to the Zapier account when prompted.

Apply organizational controls and review activity through logs and analytics. The page describes a shared audit trail and controls that can govern app and action access.
