How can I send an e-mail with a .vcf file in the attachments when a contact is added in Google/Outlook?

Hey!

I automated my lead pipeline from my website to a Google sheets table. So once a new person fills out the data and submits, Zapier creates a new row with the data in my Google sheets table. The next step would be once a new row is added, it should create a new contact in example Google contact/ Outlook contacts or best option directly in my iPhone (so far I didn’t find a solution for this directly).

My plan was when the new contact is added, Zapier gets triggered and an e-mail with a .vcf in the attachments (where the contact is stored) will be send out.

I didn’t find a way yet to send such file per mail.

 

Is there another solution to send contact data as a file so I’m only one click away from saving it in my iPhone or do I need to copy it manually in the iPhone contact form?

 

Many thanks in advance!

Best Regards

Maurizio

Hi @Maurizio 

Good question.

Why not sync your GContacts with you iPhone?
