Zapier, ready to run.

The Zapier integration is a division of labor. Zapier moves the work between your tools, which it is very good at. Floowed runs the case around it: it reads what arrives, chases what is missing and applies your rules, which a Zap was never built to do.

What it is
Zapier is a no-code automation service that moves data between thousands of web apps when a trigger fires.

What it does.

What Floowed reads from Zapier

  • Whatever a Zap sends in, as the start of a case
  • Documents and links carried on the payload
  • Fields from any app in your Zapier account, carried in by the Zap

What it writes back

  • The decision and its reasoning, back to the Zap
  • The outcome, on to any app your Zap continues into
  • A callback when a case that was waiting finally clears

Zapier is a bridge rather than a system of record, so there is nothing of yours to sync back from it: the records stay in the apps your Zaps connect. Webhooks by Zapier is not available on Zapier's Free plan, so this needs a paid Zapier plan.

A new customer handover, from closed deal to live account.

  1. Gather

    A deal closes in HubSpot and your Zap posts it to Floowed, with a link to the signed order form in DocuSign. The case opens.

  2. Interpret

    We read the signed agreement and set its terms, billing contact and start date against what the deal says.

  3. Chase

    The customer's billing details and tax form are missing, so we ask their contact by email and follow up until they arrive.

  4. Decide

    Your handover rules run in the deterministic policy engine: terms match, payment terms within policy. A mismatch goes to the finance lead to decide.

  5. Act

    We create the customer in Xero, then call the Catch Hook so your next Zap opens the onboarding project in Asana.

Used in the same case

The connection, in detail.

New cases from
A Webhooks by Zapier POST step in your Zap, sent to a Floowed endpoint
Decisions back to
A Catch Hook trigger URL that starts a second Zap
Zapier plan
Webhooks by Zapier is not on the Free plan; it needs Professional, Team or Enterprise
Payload size
Up to 10 MB per webhook trigger, so large files travel as links

How it connects.

  1. 1

    Connect Zapier

    Using webhooks, in both directions. Nothing migrates and nothing is replaced.

  2. 2

    Build your operation

    Describe it in Slack, Teams or the Floowed Dashboard. Floowed builds it and asks only what it can’t work out.

  3. 3

    Let it run

    Every case runs from request to outcome, the same way each time, with the reasons on record. Anything sensitive waits for a person.

Questions

Does Floowed integrate with Zapier?

Yes, over webhooks in both directions. A Zap can start a case in Floowed, and Floowed hands the outcome back for a Zap to act on. Webhooks by Zapier is not on Zapier's Free plan, so this needs a paid Zapier plan.

How does the Zapier integration connect?

Your Zap posts to a Floowed endpoint to start a case. A case can wait days for a document, so Floowed calls a Catch Hook URL when the decision is made and a second Zap picks it up. Zapier's Human in the Loop pauses a Zap for a person to review, not for another system to answer, so this is two Zaps rather than one.

Why not just build the logic in Zapier?

Zaps route well. They don't read a photographed certificate, chase the document that never arrived, or keep a version history of the rules that decided. That is the part we do.

Do I have to replace my Zaps?

No. They keep doing what they do. Floowed runs the case in the middle and hands the outcome back to them.

Is data sent through Zapier secure?

Anything crossing Zapier is subject to Zapier's own handling, so we don't route sensitive documents through it. Send us a reference and we fetch the file from the system that holds it.

What does the Zapier integration cost?

Nothing extra. Integrations are included, and you pay for the work Floowed does on a case. Start free with $80 of credits, no card and no sales call. Zapier bills your task usage separately.
