SALT has integrated with Zapier to offer you more customization, and ease of data transfer. 🔁
This means all data SALT collects on your behalf is now capable of being "triggered" (sent to Zapier), with the ability to be bridged over to a variety of external locations (e.g. AMS, CRM, email, Slack messages, etc.).
Our Zapier Integration is free to use, and while Zapier does offer paid tiers, you can get started by setting up an account on their FREE tier here.
Connecting SALT & Zapier
Once you've set up your Zapier account, log in to SALT and follow the directions below to continue setup:
Navigate to insuranceform.app/integrations and under "Zapier," tap Connect.
[Tip: Copy the Agency/Location ID as you'll need this for step 7.]
Now navigate to https://zapier.com/app/dashboard and tap Create > Zaps.
Select "1. Trigger" and search for "SALT." (Be sure you select the one labeled "Latest" as this will be the most up-to-date version.)
Tap the "Choose an event" dropdown, which will display all of the possible events/triggers available for use when building out your Zaps.
[Tip: You can find a full list of available triggers at the bottom of this article.]
Once you've selected the event you'd like to configure, click Continue.
Tap Choose and either select an existing connection or Connect a new account.
Paste your Agency ID into the provided field in the pop-up window.
[Tip: If copy/paste didn't work, navigate back to your SALT integrations section, and tap Configure under Zapier to retrieve the Agency ID.]
Once you've entered the ID, tap "Yes, Continue to SALT.."
[Note: There may be a slight delay when Zapier is authorizing the connection. You will be directed back to the 'Zapier Trigger' setup once the authorization is complete.]
This completes the setup process, and your SALT <-> Zapier accounts should now be authenticated and connected. 🔗
Continue the process of bridging info from SALT to another platform (i.e. Agency Zoom, Slack, etc.) by tapping "2. Action" and configuring settings for that platform.
Testing Zapier Trigger with Fixed Sample Data
When "Test Trigger" is selected, Zapier populates a sample SALT submission that includes all possible attributes that can be triggered for SALT through Zapier.
