This article covers the Zapier -> TeamAI connection flow that starts inside Zapier. In this setup path, you use the TeamAI app in Zapier, authenticate with a TeamAI workspace API key, choose a TeamAI trigger, and then send the resulting data to another app in your Zap.
This article covers the setup that starts in Zapier. If you want to connect Zapier from inside TeamAI using Tools > Quick Tools, use the separate Connect Zapier to Your Workspace from TeamAI article instead.
Learning Objectives
- Connect TeamAI to Zapier from inside Zapier
- Authenticate the Zap with a TeamAI workspace API key
- Choose a TeamAI trigger and test it before building the action step
Prerequisites
You'll need:
- A Zapier account
- Access to the TeamAI workspace you want to connect
- A TeamAI workspace API key
- A workspace plan that supports API keys
Note: TeamAI's API key management is available from `Settings > API Keys`.
Set Up the Zap
Step 1: Create a new Zap in Zapier
1. Go to `zapier.com` and sign in to your account.
2. Create a new Zap.
3. In the app search step, search for `TeamAI`.
4. Select `TeamAI` as the trigger app.
Result: Zapier starts a Zap that uses TeamAI as the source app.
Step 2: Choose the TeamAI trigger
1. Select the TeamAI event you want to use as the trigger.
2. If you are following the most common workflow-based setup, choose `Workflow Finished`.
3. Click `Continue`.
Note: TeamAI's current trigger set includes `Workflow Finished`, and some setups may also expose other TeamAI trigger types depending on the integration surface.
Step 3: Connect your TeamAI account
1. When Zapier asks you to connect TeamAI, copy a TeamAI workspace API key from `Settings > API Keys`.
2. Paste the API key into the TeamAI connection window in Zapier.
3. Finish the account connection flow in Zapier.
Result: Zapier can now authenticate against your TeamAI workspace for this Zap.
Step 4: Choose the TeamAI resource to monitor
1. Select the specific TeamAI item the trigger should watch.
2. For a workflow-based trigger, choose the workflow you want Zapier to monitor.
3. Click `Continue`.
Result: The Zap is now configured to watch the TeamAI workflow you selected.
Step 5: Test the trigger
1. Run the TeamAI workflow at least once if you do not already have recent run data.
2. In Zapier, test the trigger.
3. Confirm Zapier can pull recent TeamAI sample data successfully.
4. Continue to the action step in Zapier.
Result: Your TeamAI trigger is connected and ready to send data to the next app in the Zap.
Verify the Connection
1. Confirm the TeamAI account connection in Zapier remains active.
2. Confirm the correct TeamAI workflow or trigger target is selected.
3. Run one more small test before turning the Zap on for production use.
Result: You have verified that the Zapier -> TeamAI connection is working.
Best Practices
- Use a dedicated workspace API key so the connection is easy to manage later.
- Test with a recent TeamAI workflow run before relying on the Zap in production.
- Name the Zap clearly so the TeamAI workflow it depends on is obvious.
- Recheck the selected workflow if a copied Zap is moved to a different workspace.
Common Questions
Does this article describe the same setup as TeamAI Quick Tools?
No. This article covers the Zapier -> TeamAI flow that starts in Zapier and uses a TeamAI workspace API key. The Quick Tools article covers the TeamAI -> Zapier flow that starts inside TeamAI.
Where do I get the API key for the Zapier connection?
Get it from `Settings > API Keys` in the TeamAI workspace you want to connect.
Which TeamAI trigger should I use?
If you want Zapier to react when a TeamAI workflow completes, use `Workflow Finished`.
What if Zapier cannot find any sample data?
Run the TeamAI workflow once, then test the trigger again so Zapier has recent data to pull.
Can I start this setup inside TeamAI instead of Zapier?
Yes, but that is a different path. Use the separate TeamAI -> Zapier quick-connect article for the in-product setup flow.
