What is Zapier 

• Zapier is a web automation app. With Zapier you can connect different web applications and automate workflows. Zapier is designed to move data between different web apps automatically.
• A Zap is a blueprint for a task you want to do over and over again. A Zap looks like this: "When I get a new thing in A, do this other thing in B." The first part is the Trigger and the second part is the Action.
• Zapier supports hundreds of apps. You can mix and match triggers and actions to automate just about anything.
• An example might be "When I get a new lead in one of my applications (Website, Facebook, Salesforce) add that lead as a new contact to a selected list in Ongage."
• Every 10-15 minutes, Zapier regularly checks your trigger for new data. When the Zap triggers, Zapier automatically performs the action you requested it to do (e.g., add contact to list).

...

• Integrate: Link your web apps, so they can share data.
• Automate: Pass info between your apps with workflows called Zaps.
• Innovate: Build processes faster and get more done—no code required.
