Automation via Zapier
A new contact can trigger the Zap. Confirmed searches check contacts in Whatsplaid and products or orders in the configured source.
Confirmed actions create or update contacts, tags and fields; reply within the allowed window; request handoff; change the conversation agent; or close tickets.
Can receive contacts from Whatsplaid, send contacts from external systems to Whatsplaid, or perform specific actions according to the Zap.
New contact uses Zapier scheduled poll. Other events sent via outgoing webhooks are not presented as triggers by this app.

Availability depends on the plans of Whatsplaid, Zapier and the target app.
Messages are only reactive replies within the window opened by the contact. Products and orders are read-only. There is no cart, public checkout, or additional delivery guarantee.
Step by step
How to use Whatsplaid with Zapier.
The integration uses Whatsplaid's public API and checks the account's actual capabilities before performing each operation.
STEP 01
Access the app on Zapier
Open the official Whatsplaid page and choose new contact, a search, or an action.
STEP 02
Connect your Whatsplaid account
In Whatsplaid's Integrations menu, click install Zapier. Copy the dedicated key created by the flow and use it only when connecting the account in Zapier.
STEP 03
Choose only available features
Contacts, messages, handoff, tickets, products and orders depend on the account, plan, modules and configured connections.
STEP 04
Map the fields
Map identifiers, phone numbers with country code, email, tags, and custom fields to the connected app's fields.
STEP 05
Test and publish Zap
Use authorized test data and verify matching, duplicates, permissions, and loop prevention before publishing the Zap.
What connects
Trigger, searches and actions with confirmed scope.
The integration checks the account's capabilities and halts unavailable operations with a clear error, without assuming universal access.
New contact
New contacts from the CRM (Lite) can trigger Zaps with ID, name, phone, email, tags and available custom fields.
Contact, product and order
Contacts are retrieved in Whatsplaid. Products and orders are fetched via REST from the configured source, without a public cart or checkout.
Registration, tags and fields
Create or update contacts by full phone number, add or remove tags, and update custom fields.
Response, handoff and tickets
Respond only to conversations initiated by the contact within the allowed window, request handoff, change the agent's status, or close tickets.
Four pillars
Automation beyond contact capture.
Zapier connects Whatsplaid to the rest of the operation. Contacts are an entry point; support, AI, context and data form the complete offering.

Keep authorized contextSync contacts, tags and fields with source-of-truth responsibility and loop prevention.

Common questions about Zapier and Whatsplaid.
What is Zapier's role in this integration?
Zapier connects Whatsplaid's triggers, searches and confirmed actions to other apps, always subject to the account's effective capabilities.
Is Zapier the same as a direct integration with a CRM?
No. Integrations like RD Station, Pipedrive, HubSpot and Bitrix24 are direct connections. Zapier is a bridge to create custom flows with other platforms.
What data can Zapier receive from Whatsplaid?
The new contact trigger can provide ID, name, phone, email, country, creation date, tags, and custom fields available on the record.
Can Zapier initiate a conversation on WhatsApp?
No. The reply action only sends text when the contact initiated the conversation and the service window remains open. It is not intended for campaigns or proactive messages.
Can I choose where each piece of information goes?
Yes. Map only the necessary fields and decide in advance which system is responsible for each value to avoid circular updates.
When should I use Zapier instead of the API?
Use Zapier when you want to build no-code automations with apps already available on the platform. Use the API when you need a custom integration, more control, or specific technical rules.
Can products and orders be modified via Zapier?
Not in this integration. Products and orders are REST queries to the configured source. There are no public cart or checkout actions.
What guarantees exist for events and delivery?
The new contact trigger uses Zapier polling. Outgoing webhooks are a separate flow. The integration does not advertise HMAC, persistent idempotency, or delivery guarantees that are not yet implemented.
