With Zapier, you can add contacts from a third-party app using a sign-up form. This can kick off an automation, be added to a segment, etc.

Create a signup form located in Marketing > Forms.

Once the fields are selected, click EMBED on the left navigation, and you will need to find the uuid. This identification code is what tells Zapier which form it will need to "fill out". Although this can look intimidating because it's code if you scroll to the bottom of the embed code and then slowly up, you will see <input type...copy the value, but do not include the quotation marks! We will save this for later!

Navigate to Zapier, where we will be setting up a Zap. Start by clicking "Make a Zap". 

In this example, we are using Facebook Ads. There are many third-party apps, and you should select the one you need. Search for the app you want.


​Now that we told Zapier where to pull the data from, we now have to tell it where to put the data, which will always be Webhook.

Fill out the fields as follows:

Choose App: Webhooks by Zapier
Choose Action Event: Custom Request

Data Pass-Through?: False

Copy and paste the following into the larger Data field:

{
  "uuid": "INSERT UUID FROM STEP TWO",
  "response": {
    "first_name": "DELETE THIS",
    "last_name": "DELETE THIS",
    "email": "DELETE THIS",
    "phone": "DELETE THIS",

"opt_in_email": "DELETE THIS",
"opt_in_sms": "DELETE THIS"
  }
}

Highlight the text that says DELETE THIS (leave quotation marks), delete it, and press the plus button outlined in red in the screenshot above. You will select the corresponding field and add it in. Do not delete the quotation marks!

The remaining fields can be left blank.

*Make sure that when you input this information it has “Email” and Phone Number”

Do not input “raw phone number” and “raw email”.

Hit continue and test to ensure that the zap is working!

If you receive a 400 error when creating the Zap, make sure the reCAPTHCA is turned off and try again.
