Grassrootz now integrates with Zapier ⚡

What is Zapier?

Zapier is an online application that helps you automate your workflow and tasks. It can connect your Grassrootz account to 7,000+ other applications, with no coding required, allowing you to reduce manual work and save time. 

Zapier works by creating automations known as Zaps. These Zaps have a trigger and an action and can be set up without assistance from a Developer.  

For example, you can use our Zapier integration to connect Grassrootz with Hubspot so that whenever a fundraiser signs up to a Grassrootz campaign (Trigger), a new contact record is created in Hubspot (Action).

Zapier has a free plan that allows unlimited zaps and 100 tasks/month. If you need more functionality from Zapier, its paid plans start from $30AUD or $34NZD per month. You can create an account here.

Step 1: Once your Zapier account is created you will need to contact the Grassrootz Support Team and request your organisation’s Client Key and Secret Key as these are required when setting up your first Zap to protect your organisation’s data.

Step 2: Visit the Grassrootz Integrations page on the Zapier website and follow the prompts to create your first Zap. You will see the below instructions when setting up your first Zap which is where you will need to enter the details mentioned in Step 1. This will connect your Grassrootz and Zapier accounts and allow your data to be sent to your desired application.
