  • How do I set up a Zap to restrict laptop access until certain tasks are completed?

Ok so this is an odd thing I am trying to do.

Kind of like how you can lock your phone until you accomplish a to do list.

Well I am trying to do the same thing in a way, but with my laptop. Kind of like forcing me to do a morning routine before I have access to my computer.

I’m not sure if this is possible, but if anyone had any input or ideas I would love to hear them.

Hi there @Charissa,

Welcome to the Community! 🎉

I'm sorry to inform you that the workflow you are trying to achieve may not be possible directly through Zapier as it needs integration with apps that provide an API. However, if you can find a laptop locking application that supports an API, you can use Webhooks by Zapier to help you set up the desired workflow and bridge the gap.

Hopefully, this helps!
