# Zapier Account Integration

## Overview

[Zapier](https://zapier.com/) is an automation platform that can connect Sellercloud to other cloud services and streamline data flow between them. It acts as the middle layer between apps, detecting events in one system and automatically carrying out tasks in another. For Sellercloud users, this means you can extend the platform far beyond its native integrations, automate routine work, and keep external tools in sync without manual intervention. You can connect Sellercloud to CRMs, project management tools, communication platforms, and spreadsheets, among more than 8,000 services overall. This is how Zapier works:

- At the core of Zapier are **Zaps**: simple, rule-based workflow automations. Once a **Zap** is turned on, it handles repetitive tasks for you.
- Each **Zap** starts with a **Trigger**, an event in one app that tells Zapier something has happened.
- Zapier then performs one or more **Actions** in other apps based on that **Trigger**.

See Zapier’s list of [Supported Triggers and Actions](https://zapier.com/apps/sellercloud/integrations#triggers-and-actions) that take place in Sellercloud.

## Integrate Zapier

To connect Zapier to Sellercloud:

1. Log in to your Zapier account.
2. Select **App Connections** in the left sidebar.
3. Click the **Add connection** button.

4. Search for **Sellercloud** and select it when it appears, then click **Add connection**.

5. Enter your **Team Name** and login credentials to connect your Sellercloud account to Zapier.

6. If you are successful, your connected account will appear next to the **Sellercloud** app on the **App Connections** page. You can now [Create Zaps](https://help.sellercloud.com/sellercloud-knowledge-base/integrations/other/zapier-account-integration~7630863696974996497#create-zaps) with **Triggers** and **Actions** that take place in Sellercloud.

## Create Zaps

Creating a new Zap requires no coding knowledge; Zapier will walk you step-by-step through the setup. You can also add various [Premade Integrations](https://zapier.com/apps/sellercloud/integrations). To create a new Zap:

1. Click the **Create** button in the left sidebar and select **Zaps**.
2. _Optionally_, you can describe your workflow in the **Copilot** window, and the AI will start creating the automation for you step by step.
3. To set up the **Zap** manually, click the **Trigger**.

4. Select the **App** where the **Trigger** occurs, and then select the **Event**. If you have already connected your **Account** in that **App** to Zapier, it may be preselected; if not, you must connect it now.

5. Click **Continue**.
6. Next, you can **Configure** the available options for the **Trigger**. When ready, click **Continue**.

7. Finally, click **Test trigger**.
8. Next, you must set up your **Action** by selecting an **Action event** to run whenever the **Trigger** is activated.

9. Click **Continue**, then **Configure** and **Test** your **Action** to make sure it works as expected.
