Zapier Universal Interface: Set Up an "Action" – WEBINARIS helpdesk

I) Introduction

Zapier is a so-called interface service provider. This means that Zapier provides interfaces between different platforms. This means that Webinaris can be connected to all platforms that have an interface to Zapier themselves.

II) Setting an action in Zapier (Creating participants in Webinaris)

To create a participant in Webinaris from Zapier, please do not use the Webinars Zapier App, but the "Webhooks" app of the Zapier Built-In Apps. This is necessary because the Webinaris app is not yet able to create actions. With the Webhooks app you use the basic Webinaris API, which makes the connection possible (more information about the Webinaris API can be found here: Webinaris API). Please proceed as follows:

1. do not select the Webinaris Zapier App as the app, but the Webhooks app of the Zapier Built-In Apps

2. select the "GET" option

3. Click "Save + Continue"
