How do I embed Zapier and test the OAuth flow locally? I don’t want to create an Integration.

I’m building a SaaS app that will provide AI agents. I want to connect my AI agents with Zapier AI Actions so that the agents can perform actions, such as book an event in Google Calendar.

I was going to implement the OAuth flow and test it locally, bit it requires an App Client Id which can only be obtained after publishing the app.

This seems a bit counterintuitive – how can I publish the app without even testing it locally?

Now, to publish the app (i.e., Integration) I need 3 users with live Zaps, etc. This is also confusing because I don’t even want to create an Integration. That is, I don’t want users of Zapier to call my APIs. I want my end customers to use Zapier via my app.

It seems like there’s no way to “embed” Zapier without creating an Integration first? Why is that? Is Zapier not the right fit for my needs?
