Sending parsed data to Zapier

Zapier is a very popular tool used to connect online services together. Email Parser can send the parsed text from your emails to Zapier and, from there, you can use this data in an endless number of tools and online services.

Email Parser communicates with Zapier via Webhooks. The following screenshot shows how the Zapier action looks like in Email Parser. You need to enter the Webhook URL provided by Zapier, and Email Parser will send the parsed data to that URL every time an email is processed:

Setting up the Webhook in Zapier

These are the steps you need to follow in your Zapier account to set up a Webhook that Email Parser can use:

1. Log in to your Zapier account.
2. Create a new Zap, and choose Webhook as the Trigger App.
3. Choose “Catch Hook” and click continue.
4. Leave “Pick off a Child Key” empty and click continue.
5. Zapier will now give you a URL. Copy it into the Zapier action in Email Parser (as shown in the screenshot above).
6. If you want to test the Zap, open an email account in Email Parser and process an email. Zapier will receive the parsed data and you can verify it arrived correctly.

Once the Webhook is configured, you can add any action in Zapier to process the parsed data. For example, you can send it to a Google Sheet, create a task in a project management tool, or forward it to another service.
