Zapier Integration
Table of Contents
Zapier is a web-based software that allows you to connect various online tools and web services together—an event in one service can trigger an event in another. Examples of Zaps include the following:
- When a Customer Organization is created in my Syncro account, create a Contact in Google Contacts.
- When an Invoice is created in Syncro, send it to another accounting platform.
- When an End User/Contact is created in my Syncro account, add them to Constant Contact.
- Create a Google Calendar reminder a year after a specific sale is made in Syncro.
IMPORTANT: This integration currently doesn't allow a full "two-way sync," where everything is updated on both sides with every update.
Available Events & Actions
The Syncro-Zapier integration currently allows you to hook into the following Event Triggers and send the resulting data into any of the 2,000+ Zapier apps in their directory:
- A new Customer Organization, Invoice, Payment, RMM Alert, or Ticket was created,
- A Ticket Status is changed, or
- A Ticket is Resolved.
Notes:
- Zapier doesn't currently support Custom Ticket Fields when using an Event Trigger to create a new Ticket.
- The New Invoice Event Trigger has a five (5) minute delay to compensate for the fact that Syncro doesn't know when an Invoice is "done being edited." We think on average that's how long it takes before people are done editing line items.
Zaps can also perform the following Actions:
- Create a Customer Organization, End User/Contact, Ticket, Ticket Timer Entry, Appointment, Estimate, or Lead,
- Update an existing Customer Organization, End User/Contact, or Ticket
- Log a call
Finally, Zaps can search for existing Customer Organizations.

- Make any desired adjustments to the permissions.
- Click Create API Token.
- On the New Zapier API Token Created screen, copy the key and paste it somewhere safe.
IMPORTANT: Syncro will never display this token again, so you must save it somewhere secure - Click Done.
