Zapier

Overview

Visual UGC's Zapier plugin makes it easier than ever before for customers to connect their Visual UGC Content Marketing Platform with their their wider Marketing Technology ecosystem.
Zapier is a middleware tool designed for non-technical users to connect various web applications and to automate key tasks through an integration called a 'Zap'. A Zap is made up of a Trigger and one or more Actions. Whenever this Trigger occurs in one Application, Zapier will automatically instigate the relevant actions in the other connected applications.
Through the Zapier plugin, customers can both bring content into their Stack, and/or push content, assets or data to a third party application.
