How to Connect Zapier with Your Profit Lifter Account
QUICK EXPLANATION VIDEO:
If you're looking to integrate Zapier with your Profit Lifter account, there are two primary ways to do it. This guide will walk you through both methods, helping you determine which is best for your needs.
Step 1: Ensure You Have a Zapier Account
Before you begin, you need an active Zapier account. Without one, you won’t be able to proceed with the integration.
Step 2: Set Up a Trigger
The first step in creating a Zap is determining your trigger—the event that initiates the automation. In this case, we’ll focus on setting up triggers through the LeadConnector app inside Zapier.
1. Search for LeadConnector
In Zapier, use the search function to find the LeadConnector app.
2. Connect Your Account
If you haven't already done so, Zapier will prompt you to connect your Profit Lifter account.
3. Enter Your API Key
You can find your API key in Profit Lifter under Settings > Business Profile.
If you haven’t generated one yet, click Generate API Key, copy it, and paste it into Zapier.
4. Select an Event
LeadConnector only allows pipeline stage changes as triggers.
This means that an automation can be triggered when a lead moves through your sales pipeline.
If pipeline stage changes aren’t enough for your needs, you can use webhooks for more advanced integration.
Step 3: Using Webhooks for Advanced Integrations
Webhooks allow you to connect Zapier to almost any action inside Profit Lifter. This is especially useful when you need to trigger automations outside of the default LeadConnector options.
1. Create a Webhook Trigger in Zapier
In Zapier, select Webhooks by Zapier as your trigger.
Choose Catch Hook (most commonly used for receiving data from another app).
Copy the webhook URL provided by Zapier.
2. Configure Webhook in Profit Lifter
Navigate to Automations in Profit Lifter.
Choose the event you want to trigger the webhook (e.g., form submission).
Select Webhook as the action.
Paste the copied Zapier webhook URL.
Save and publish the automation.
3. Test the Webhook
In Zapier, click Test Trigger to confirm that Profit Lifter is sending the correct data.
You should see a sample request pull through.
4. Map Data in Zapier
If you’re using a webhook, you’ll need to manually map fields such as first name, email, etc.
Click the custom values button in Zapier and select the corresponding webhook fields.
