Zapier is a third-party automation tool that Event Temple to thousands of other apps and moves information between them automatically with no coding necessary.

Zapier connections to apps is called a 'Zap'. Every Zap has a trigger and one or more actions. A trigger is an event that starts a Zap, and action is what your Zap does for you. When a Zap runs, each action it completes counts as one task. See Zapier's article on getting started for more details.

Some common uses for connecting Zapier are to send email inquiries from third party sites (eg The Wedding Wire, The Knot) to automatically create a Booking within Event Temple.

Information can also be sent from Event Temple into other apps, for example, an external survey or mailing list platform. You can even connect Event Temple to Event Temple to make changes within the system as other things happen in the app.

Event Temple has built many templates to help get you started, but there are endless possibilities!
