What to do if a Zap app doesn't have the trigger or action you are seeking?

 

Zapier Experts

Often apps only expose their most popular/useful API endpoints (triggers/actions) and webhook events (triggers) via their Zap app integrations.

However, the app trigger or action you are seeking may still be possible to configure by using an app’s API or webhooks.

Integrating and automation with app APIs and webhooks is an advanced approach that involves technical concepts.

For help configuring, consider contacting a Zapier Expert: https://zapier.com/experts

 

Zapier Support

You can submit a ticket via Zapier Support for the requested trigger/action to be logged in hopes that it will be included and made available in a future version of the app’s Zap integration.

FYI: Most apps on Zapier are built and maintained by the app developers themselves, but Zapier keeps an internal list of app requests.
