Hi all, I’ve been enjoying making some smart automation using conditional paths, but where a certain path builds out to several actions, I am getting frustrated by the lack of copy functionality - we can copy Zaps, but not parts of Zaps? Have anyone figured out a way around this, to reduce configuration effort / time?

Hi @PeterCera 

Paths cannot currently be copied.

Better approach would be to have separate Zaps per Path, since Zaps can be copied/cloned/duplicated.

An advanced approach is to use webhooks to chain Zaps together.

This is accomplished via the Webhooks app: https://zapier.com/apps/webhook/help

 

Zap 1

  1. Trigger: ???
  2. Action: Webhook - POST (to webhook URL generated from Zap 2)

 

Zap 2

  1. Trigger: Webhook - Catch Hook (generates webook URL to use in Zap 1)
  2. Action: ???

 

6. Optional: Trigger multiple Zaps with webhooks

 

If you have multiple webhooks you want to trigger from the same event in your app, you can combine their URLs into a single URL. For example, if you have three Zaps, the URLs would look like this:

https://hooks.zapier.com/hooks/catch/123456/zbB61

https://hooks.zapier.com/hooks/catch/123456/kzXC4

https://hooks.zapier.com/hooks/catch/123456/2Ajjn

You can take the last part of each URLs and combine them into a single URL like this:
https://zapier.com/hooks/catch/123456/zbB61,kzXC4,2Ajjn

Requests sent to this URL will trigger all three webhook URLs at once.
