Ensure that your business-critical Zaps continue working even when you remove a member from your Team or Company account. You can review their Zaps and connected apps, then decide if you want to transfer ownership of them to another user.
NoteThis feature is available to:
- Owners of Team accounts.
- Super admins and owners of Company accounts.
Export a CSV of the member’s Zaps and app connections
Before you remove a member, export a CSV of their Zaps and app connections to review. You can also save the CSV for your records.
- Go to the Members page.
- In the Search members input box, search for and select the member.
- Click the three dot icon
next to the member. - In the dropdown menu, click Download Zaps and app connections (CSV).
- A CSV will automatically download to your computer.
Review the member’s Zaps and app connections
Use the exported CSV to review all private and shared Zaps and app connections that have been published by the member.
The CSV will contain the following info:
- Type: indicates whether the row is for a connected app account (“Auth”) or Zap.
- ID: the unique ID of the connected app account or Zap.
- Name: the name of the connected app account or Zap.
- Link: a URL link to the connected app account or Zap page.
-
Private: indicates whether a connected app account or Zap is private.
- “True” indicates it’s private.
- “False” indicates it’s shared.
- App: for a connected app account, the name of the app that’s connected.
NoteWhen you remove a member from your account:
- Private Zaps will automatically turn off. You must transfer ownership and update the connected app account before removing the member if you want it to continue running.
- Shared Zaps will remain on, but ownership will automatically transfer to the account owner. You do not need to transfer ownership before removing the member.
- It is recommended that you reconnect both private and shared app connections when removing a member. If you do not, the app connections will stop working.

Private Zaps
You must move private Zaps into a shared folder before transferring ownership.
