How to use Zapier with LeadConnector

Zapier lets you connect LeadConnector with hundreds of other apps so you can automate tasks, move data, and trigger workflows without writing code. This guide explains exactly how to use LeadConnector events and webhooks to build reliable automations.

The steps below are based on the official LeadConnector integration documentation, adapted into a practical how-to format so you can follow along and build your own workflows quickly.

Before you connect LeadConnector to Zapier

To use LeadConnector with Zapier, you need a few things prepared in advance. Getting these ready helps prevent common connection errors and makes testing smoother.

• An active LeadConnector account with the right permissions to access contacts, opportunities, and locations.
• Access to the LeadConnector API or settings area if you plan to use webhooks.
• A Zapier account with permission to create zaps and manage connections.
• At least one test contact or opportunity in LeadConnector to use during zap testing.

Once these basics are in place, you can start creating your first automation.

Create your first LeadConnector zap in Zapier

The main automation you build in Zapier is called a zap. A zap has a trigger and one or more actions. When something happens in LeadConnector, Zapier runs the actions you define.

Step 1: Choose a LeadConnector trigger in Zapier

Begin by creating a new zap inside Zapier:

1. Sign in to your Zapier account.
2. Click Create Zap.
3. In the trigger search box, type LeadConnector and select it.
4. Pick the trigger event that matches what you want to automate. Common examples include:
   • New contact created
   • Contact updated
   • New opportunity created or moved to a stage
   • Form or survey submission events
5. Click Continue to move to the account connection step.

The trigger event you choose tells Zapier when to run your zap based on activity inside LeadConnector.

Step 2: Connect your LeadConnector account to Zapier

If you have not connected LeadConnector before, Zapier prompts you to add a new account.

1. On the trigger setup screen, click Sign in to LeadConnector.
2. A new window opens asking for your LeadConnector credentials or authorization.
3. Follow the prompts provided by LeadConnector to approve access.
4. When the connection succeeds, select your LeadConnector account from the dropdown and click Continue.

Zapier stores this connection securely and reuses it across other zaps, so you usually only need to connect once.

Step 3: Configure trigger options and test

Each LeadConnector trigger in Zapier has specific options, such as location or pipeline filters. The exact fields depend on the trigger you choose.

1. Fill in any required fields, such as:
   • Location or sub-account
   • Pipeline or stage
   • Contact or event filters
2. Click Test trigger to fetch sample data from LeadConnector.
3. Review the returned sample record to confirm the expected fields are present, such as name, email, phone, or opportunity details.

If the test does not return any data, create a test record in LeadConnector that matches your trigger conditions, then run the test again from Zapier.

Use Zapier to send LeadConnector data to other apps

After your trigger is working, you can define what happens next. Zapier actions send your LeadConnector data to other tools, update records, or notify your team.

Step 4: Add an action step after LeadConnector in Zapier

To continue building your workflow:

1. Click the + icon under your LeadConnector trigger in Zapier.
2. Select an app where you want to send data, such as a CRM, email marketing tool, spreadsheet, or project management app.
3. Choose an action event, for example:
   • Create or update contact in another CRM
   • Add a row to a spreadsheet
   • Create a ticket or task
   • Send an email or notification
4. Connect the destination app account if prompted.
5. Map LeadConnector fields from the trigger step into the action fields using the fields dropdown.

Mapping fields ensures that details like name, email, phone, tags, stage, and custom fields from LeadConnector appear correctly in the target app when Zapier runs your zap.

Step 5: Test and turn on your zap

Once your action is configured:

1. Click Test step to send sample data from LeadConnector through the action in Zapier.
2. Check the target app to confirm the data arrived and looks correct.
3. If everything is accurate, click Publish or Turn on zap.

Your automation is now live. Whenever the LeadConnector trigger fires, Zapier will run the actions you set up.

Use LeadConnector webhooks with Zapier

Some LeadConnector events are delivered through webhooks. You can capture those events in Zapier using a webhook-based trigger and then process the data in other steps.

Step 6: Configure a webhook in LeadConnector

Inside your LeadConnector settings, you can configure webhooks to send event data to a specific URL. The general flow is:

1. Create or open the section for webhooks in your LeadConnector account.
2. Choose the events you want to send, such as new leads, appointments, or pipeline changes.
3. Paste the webhook URL that you will get from Zapier in a later step.
4. Save your webhook configuration.

Once this is configured, LeadConnector will send event payloads to Zapier whenever those events occur.

Step 7: Use Zapier to receive LeadConnector webhooks

To receive webhook data, you typically use a webhook trigger inside Zapier, depending on the exact integration options available.

1. Create a new zap in Zapier.
2. Choose the appropriate webhook-based trigger that works with LeadConnector.
3. Copy the webhook URL provided by Zapier.
4. Return to LeadConnector and paste this URL into the webhook settings as described earlier.
5. Trigger a test event from LeadConnector.
6. In Zapier, click Test trigger to pull in the sample webhook payload.

After the webhook data is available, you can map its fields in subsequent steps, just as you do with standard LeadConnector triggers.

Troubleshooting LeadConnector and Zapier automations

If your LeadConnector automation in Zapier is not working as expected, use these checks:

• Confirm the zap is turned on and has no error alerts.
• Verify that the trigger conditions match real activity in LeadConnector.
• Use the Task History in Zapier to review recent runs, input data, and error messages.
• Update any changed fields or pipelines in your zap settings if your LeadConnector setup was modified.
• Re-test the trigger and action steps after making changes.
