No coding skills are required. Zapier provides ready to use triggers and actions that connect Email API with 4aGoodCause. You can also use webhooks if you need more control. Start with a simple two step flow and test. The visual builder lets you map fields and set conditions.
Email API uses an API key for authentication. Keep the key secure and ensure the scope is set to users.write. Some configurations may use OAuth. Ensure the Zapier app has permission to access and modify users.
The essential endpoints are POST /users/ to create a user, PUT /users/:userId to update, DELETE /users/:userId to remove, and GET /workflows/ to list workflows. You can also read workflows with workflows.readonly and map fields between apps.
Use Zapier test features to simulate triggers and actions. Check that data maps correctly and that created or updated records appear in both apps. Run live tests with sample records and monitor for errors in the Zap history.
Yes. The connector supports field mappings between Email API and 4aGoodCause. Use the mapping UI to align emails names and IDs with the corresponding fields in 4aGoodCause.
Triggers run in near real time depending on the Zapier plan and the API. Some polling intervals may apply. For critical data consider webhooks or higher update frequency.
API documentation for Email API is provided by the vendor. Look for the endpoints section and authentication details. You can also view App Connector docs inside Zapier for setup and troubleshooting.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
