What is Integration to Zapier?

Zapier is a web tool that connects and moves information between web apps, automating tedious tasks in the process. Several web applications can communicate with CRM.COM via Zapier. This involves setting up Zaps, links between connected services which define the communication principles between the integrated web apps. Zaps consist of Triggers, the events that start the Zap, and Actions, the events that complete the Zap. Whenever the Trigger event occurs, such as a "new email" or a "new contact", Zapier automatically completes the Action.
