How to Integrate y.gy with Zapier

What is Zapier?

Zapier is a web-based automation tool that connects various apps and services to streamline workflows. It allows users to create automated actions, known as "Zaps," between different applications without needing to code. These Zaps can transfer information and trigger actions across multiple platforms, making repetitive tasks more efficient. Zapier supports thousands of apps, including popular services like Gmail, Dropbox, and Notion, enhancing productivity by automating routine processes.

Steps to activate Zapier

  1. Log into your y.gy Dashboard, go into a link of your choice, and then go to the "Configure" tab.
  2. Scroll down to the Zapier Key Field and copy your Zapier key: Zapier Access Key
  3. Navigate to Zapier and search for the y.gy app. Currently, we are in the Beta Phase, and you can access the app here.
  4. When asked for a key, paste the Zapier key you copied from the y.gy Dashboard into step 2. (Do not paste in your Link ID).
  5. You should be ready to go!

Please note that any Zapier request (Zap) will timeout if it cannot establish a connection with Zapier in 30 seconds or if it does not receive a response from Zapier in 90 seconds.
