In order for Zapier to automatically send data from one of your apps to another, you must first connect those apps to Zapier. This will give Zapier secure access to read and write data to those apps.
There are two ways you can connect your app accounts to Zapier: in the Apps page, or in the Zap editor. You can also connect multiple or different accounts for the same app to Zapier.
Note- Your Zapier account has a limit of 2,000 app connections.
- Zapier uses bank-level encryption to protect the credentials that you use to access your app accounts. Zapier only takes actions in your app accounts that are required to run the Zaps you create.
- You must ensure that you have the right permissions to use the app. Check your account settings to verify your account permissions.
Connect app accounts in the Apps page
- Go to the Apps page.
- In the upper right, click Add connection.
- Search for and select the app you want to connect.
- Click Add connection.
- A new browser tab or window will open. Follow the instructions to connect your app account.
- If nothing happens when you select an app, try disabling your browser’s pop-up blocker.
You’ll now be able to create Zaps using the connected app account.
Connect app accounts in the Zap editor
You can also connect new apps when you create Zaps in the editor.
- In the Setup tab of your step, click inside the Account field. A modal will open.
- Select an existing account from the list, or click + Connect a new account.
- A new browser tab or window will open. Follow the instructions to connect your app account.
You’ll now be able to create Zaps using the connected app account.
Connect multiple accounts for the same app
You can use different accounts of the same app in different Zaps. You can do this by creating a new connection either through the Apps page, or directly in the Zap editor.
Zapier may automatically connect to an existing account because of the browser's cookies, which recognize that you are already logged into to that service on another tab. To avoid that, you can:
- Log out of the app on another browser tab, so that the connection window in Zapier will request that you log in again.
- Use a different browser or an incognito/private window to log into Zapier and create another connection.
Once you’ve connected an app account to Zapier, you can manage the app connection in the Apps page.
