Using a CLI command to trigger a Zap.

Hi All,

I’ve got a bit of an odd one.

I have a program that is capable of running a command line or executing a program once it is finished a process. I’d like to use that to trigger a Zap which then kicks off lots of lovely automation.

Has anyone out there managed to do this? Any ideas would be welcome.

Cheers,

RowleyCW

Hi @RowleyCW 

You could set the trigger of your zap to be a webhook, then from your program, run a curl command to call the webhook URL.
