What is Zapier?

Zapier is a web-based automation tool that connects various web applications to automate repetitive tasks. It allows users to create integrations, known as "Zaps," that link different web apps to trigger actions based on certain events.

For example, a Zap could be set up to automatically create a task in a to-do list app whenever an email is received in Gmail, or to save new customer data from a form to a spreadsheet.

Zapier supports integrations with over 5,000 web applications, including popular tools such as Slack, Trello, Salesforce, and Google Drive. The platform is designed to be user-friendly, allowing even non-technical users to set up and manage their integrations without requiring any coding knowledge.
