Zapier Integration

Automate your workflow by connecting Tyform to thousands of apps through Zapier.

What is Zapier?

Zapier connects apps together through automated workflows called "Zaps." When something happens in Tyform (trigger), Zapier automatically does something in another app (action).

Examples:

• New response → Add row to Google Sheets
• New response → Create Notion page
• New response → Send Slack message
• New response → Add subscriber to Mailchimp
• New response → Create Salesforce lead
