Setting up Synap on Zapier
On Zapier create a new Zap and search for 'Synap' and selecting the latest version available.
Initial setup of a trigger (searching for Synap)
Select the trigger you wish to use and click 'continue' you may need to connect your account using the credentials provided by your account manager.
Click 'Continue' and then you can test the trigger! Doing this will pull through any data from the last few minutes relating to your chosen trigger.
🚨 Testing Triggers will require a recent event of that type (3 minutes), you can skip this step.
For setting up actions simply follow the same steps just ensure you aren't doing it in the first box that Zapier offers you, it should look like this.
Ensure the wording in the orange bar says 'Action' to get access to the Synap actions
