How Do I Connect Zapier?

About

Zapier connects to Goliath using an API key that you generate within the platform. Once connected, you can use Goliath as a trigger (to watch for events like new contacts or deal changes) or as an action (to create records from other apps). This integration lets you automate workflows between Goliath and thousands of other applications without writing code.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Navigate to the Integrations page

   From the left sidebar, click Integrations to open the integrations hub.

   

2. Locate the Zapier integration

   Scroll to the Lead Management & Automation section and find the Zapier card. The card displays key capabilities including workflow automation, building custom flows, and connecting with thousands of apps.

   

3. Open the Zapier setup page

   Click the Connect Zapier button on the Zapier card. The page will display a loading indicator as it prepares to navigate to Zapier’s platform.

   

4. Complete authentication in Zapier

   You will be redirected to Zapier’s website where you can create a new Zap or browse pre-built templates. When prompted to authenticate Goliath during Zap setup, paste the API key you generated in Goliath. Once authenticated, Zapier can read from and write to your Goliath account.

   

Pro Tips

• Use pre-built templates: Search for Goliath in Zapier’s template gallery to find common workflows (like syncing new leads to Google Sheets or creating contacts from form submissions) that require minimal setup.
• Goliath as a trigger: Configure Zapier to watch for Goliath events such as new contacts, deal stage changes, or property signals, then trigger actions in other apps.
• Goliath as an action: Use Zapier to create Goliath contacts, deals, or tags automatically when events occur in other platforms (e.g., landing page tools, CRMs, or email services).
• Secure your API key: Treat the API key like a password—do not share it in unsecured locations. If compromised, regenerate it from the Integrations page and update any affected Zaps.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I generate an API key for Zapier?

The API key generation happens within the Goliath Integrations page. The exact UI for key creation may vary—consult the Documentation link on the Zapier card or contact support if you need to manually generate or rotate a key.

Q: Does Zapier cost extra to use with Goliath?

Goliath does not charge extra for Zapier integration, but Zapier itself has tiered pricing based on the number of tasks and Zaps you run. Some Goliath subscription plans may limit or gate Zapier access—check your plan details.

Q: How do I find Goliath when creating a Zap?

In the Zapier editor, search for “Goliath” or “GoliathData” in the app directory. Goliath will appear as an available trigger or action depending on your workflow needs.

Q: What if my API key is compromised?

Regenerate the API key from the Goliath Integrations page. This will invalidate the old key, so you must update any existing Zaps with the new key to restore functionality.

Q: When should I use Zapier vs. Incoming Webhooks?

Use Zapier for no-code automation with thousands of pre-built app connectors—ideal for business users. Choose Incoming Webhooks if you need custom scripting, direct API control, or want to avoid dependency on Zapier’s platform.
