Getting Started with New Zapier Apps

Zapier lets you quickly connect new apps to automate tasks without coding. This how-to guide walks you through using the latest integrations so you can turn manual work into streamlined workflows.

The examples below are based on the newest apps available in the official Zapier new apps announcement. Follow the steps to set up each tool inside your account.

How to Connect a New App in Zapier

Before diving into each app, learn the basic process for adding any new integration to your automations.

Step 1: Sign in to Zapier

1. Open your browser and go to the Zapier home page.
2. Sign in to your existing account, or create a new one if you are a first-time user.

Once you are signed in, you can build workflows, called Zaps, that link multiple services together.

Step 2: Find the New App in Zapier

1. In the dashboard, use the search bar to look for the app name (for example, “Classy” or “Transkriptor”).
2. Select the app from the results to open its integration page.

The integration page shows available triggers, actions, and common use cases for that app.

Step 3: Connect Your Account

1. Click the button to connect your account for the chosen app.
2. Authorize Zapier to access your data by following the on-screen prompts.
3. After successful authorization, your account will be available in the Zap editor.

You only need to connect each account once. After that, you can reuse it across multiple workflows.

Using Classy with Zapier for Fundraising

Classy is a fundraising platform that you can connect to automate donation workflows.

Typical Classy Automations in Zapier

How to Build a Classy Workflow

1. In the dashboard, click “Create Zap”.
2. Choose Classy as the trigger app.
3. Select a trigger such as “New Donation” or a similar event.
4. Connect your Classy account when prompted.
5. Test the trigger to pull in a sample donation.

7. Turn your Zap on to start automating new donations.

By routing donation data automatically, you reduce manual entry and keep supporter records up to date.

Creating Images with HTML to Image in Zapier

The HTML to Image integration helps you generate images from HTML or URLs automatically.

Common HTML to Image Use Cases

3. Select an action like “Convert HTML to Image” or a similar option.
4. Enter your HTML, a template, or a URL, depending on what the action supports.
5. Choose an output format (for example PNG or JPG, if available).
6. Test the action to confirm the generated image looks correct.
7. Add another action to store or share the image, like sending it to storage or posting on social.

Automated image creation frees up design time and keeps your visual assets consistent across channels.

This setup saves time on manual note taking and keeps your records detailed and searchable.
