Every e-commerce business relies on multiple online applications. To facilitate their use and integrate them in one place, the Zapier system was developed. It connects even unrelated applications and automates their data flow. BaseLinker users can already access this tool – Zapier has been added to the list of integrations in our panel.
Zapier already connects more than 2 thousand applications and the list is constantly growing. Currently, it lets you integrate data from Google Ads, Google Sheets, Facebook, Gmail, Trello, FreshMail, PayPal and many others. BaseLinker appears on the Zapier app list as well 🙂
How does Zapier work?
It creates automated connections between applications called Zaps, which can be configured within minutes without any coding. Zaps work similarly to the automatic actions known from our system. A trigger from one application calls one or more actions in other applications. For example, in a combination of Gmail and Dropbox, when you receive a new Gmail message (trigger), it automatically saves the attachment from Gmail to Dropbox (action). It’s a great time saver for everyday tasks. You can use pre-made Zaps suggestions or create your own.
BaseLinker and Zapier integration in practice
Integrating BaseLinker with the applications offered by Zapier can streamline many of your workflows, for example:
- push new customers from BaseLinker to GoogleContacts,
- create invoices for new orders in online accounting, e.g. Xero,
- create new orders in BaseLinker based on data in Google Docs sheets,
- import customer data into Mailchimp mailing lists.
The instructions for connecting the Zapier system are available in the BaseLinker panel in section Integrations → Other. Check out the BaseLinker Help for useful tips.
Feel encouraged to try out the new integration – a free test period and basic functions of a free Zapier account will be enough to start.
