{% hint style="warning" %}
Zapier integration has been deprecated from Rocket.Chat 6.0.
You can install the Zapier app from Marketplace to avoid disruptions. {% endhint %}
Zapier lets you connect Rocket.Chat to hundreds of other web services. Automated connections called Zaps, set up in minutes with no coding, can automate your day-to-day tasks and build workflows between apps that otherwise wouldn't be possible.
Before you get started, there are a few things that you have to check.
{% hint style="info" %}
-
You are required to have a Rocket.Chat server accessible publicly
-
A user with the
impersonate user
permission to be used for authentication. -
Zapier OAuth is configured by default at
Admin -> oAuth Apps -> Zapier
{% endhint %} -
Log in or create a new Zapier account
-
From your Zapier dashboard, click on My Apps then click on Add Connection.
- Search for Rocket.Chat and choose it in the popup that shows
- A new window will open. Fill in your workspace url(keep the trailing slash) and continue
- You are then redirected to your workspace to authenticate. Authenticate with any user having the
impersonate user
permission
- Accept all the privileges needed and Authorize
- Your new connection is ready to be used with other Zapier apps
- You can test the connection by clicking on the 3 dots by the side as seen below
Once that is done you can start creating an automation! Use a pre-made Zap or create your own with the Zap Editor. Creating a Zap requires no coding knowledge and you'll be walked step-by-step through the setup.
Each Zap has one app as the Trigger, where your information comes from and which causes one or more Actions in other apps, where your data gets sent automatically.
