Trigger every time a zap is turned on


Hello, 

I want to execute certain actions every time a zap is turned on and off. I have found a working trigger offered by zapier but that only works for the action fo turning off a Zap. The alternative for when a Zap is turned on is triggered only if the Zap has been created and activated subsequentially. But this doesn’t work for me because I want to receive a call at a specific endpoint when a user has activated a Zap without creating it.

Has anyone found an alternative solution?

There is no such Zapier Manager trigger available or other Zap app trigger available for this event that I’m aware of.

Hi @vanessa 

Is it only for 1 Zap?

If so, you could log every Zap Run into a GSheet and use that to get an idea of when the Zap was ON, granted it won’t be a true timestamp for when the user turned the Zap ON.

It is for multiple stand-alone zaps.

I could do that, but it wouldn’t be applicable in my environment. What I need is to receive a request at a specific endpoint each time a zap is turned on.
