What is a Zap

A zap is basically an automated task that you want run over and over again between two online apps. A zap consists of a trigger and an action:

When this happens (Trigger), do something (Action).

Once you have created your zap, Zapier will check your trigger every few minutes for new data. If the zap is triggered, Zapier will automatically perform the action! There is no involvement needed from you - your data will flow from one app to the other.

Note

As Zapier only syncs with new data and not with any data already collected, it is important to set up your zap as soon as possible in any process.

With Mailjet, you have the following Trigger options:

• Subscribe Contact to Mailjet List
• Unsubscribe Contact from Mailjet List
• Parse Inbound Email (when new email is sent to your Parse API email address)

• Subscribe Contact to Mailjet List
• Unsubscribe Contact from Mailjet List
• Send a Plain Text Email
• Send an HTML Email
• Send Email Using a Saved Mailjet Template
