Zapier links Sleekplan to thousands of other apps so you can automate work without writing code. A Zap watches for a trigger (an event in one app) and runs an action (a task in another app). With the Sleekplan Zapier app you can start a Zap whenever something happens on your board, and you can push data back into Sleekplan by creating or updating posts and changelog entries. This article covers how to connect Sleekplan to Zapier and build your first Zap.
Connecting integrations is available to workspace owners and admins. Team members with the Member role won’t see the Connect options. See Roles and permissions.
The Sleekplan Zapier app is currently in beta. It appears as Zapier (beta) in your integrations list.

Before you start

You’ll need:
  • A Zapier account. The free plan is enough to build simple Zaps.
  • Your Sleekplan Workspace ID. Find it on Settings → General under Workspace ID. Zapier asks for this when you connect your account.

Connect Sleekplan to Zapier

1

Open the integrations list

In Sleekplan, go to Settings → Integrations. In the Settings sidebar, this lives under Integrations & Developers.
2

Find Zapier and click Connect

Scroll to Zapier (beta) under All integrations and click Connect. This opens the Sleekplan app page on Zapier in a new tab.The Sleekplan Integrations screen with the Zapier (beta) row highlighted and its Connect button
3

Sign in to Zapier

On the page that opens, sign in to your Zapier account (or create one). This is where you build and manage your Zaps.

Build a Zap

Once you’re in Zapier, you create the automation there. Sleekplan can act as the trigger (the event that starts the Zap) or the action (what the Zap does).
1

Create a new Zap

In your Zapier dashboard, select Create → New Zap.
2

Choose Sleekplan as the trigger or action

Click the trigger or action step, search for Sleekplan, and select it. Then pick the event you want (see the lists below).
3

Connect your Sleekplan account

The first time you use Sleekplan in a Zap, Zapier asks you to connect your account. Enter your Workspace ID (from Settings → General) and complete the sign-in flow to authorize the connection.
4

Map your fields and test

Fill in the fields for the event, then use Zapier’s Test step to confirm data flows as expected. Turn the Zap on when you’re happy with it.

Available triggers

A trigger starts a Zap when the event happens in Sleekplan. The Sleekplan app provides these triggers:
TriggerFires when
New feedback postSomeone creates a post on your board.
Update feedback postA post changes (for example, its status or category).
Delete feedback postA post is deleted.
New commentA comment is added to a post.
Update commentA comment is edited.
Delete commentA comment is deleted.
New feedback voteSomeone upvotes or downvotes a post.
New feedback subscriptionSomeone subscribes to a post for updates.
New userA new end-user account is created.
Update userAn end-user’s details change.
Delete userAn end-user account is deleted.
New changelog updateYou publish a changelog entry.
New changelog subscriberSomeone subscribes to your changelog.
New satisfaction (CSAT) responseA customer submits a CSAT rating.

Available actions

An action lets a Zap write data into Sleekplan when another app’s trigger fires:
ActionWhat it does
Create feedback postAdds a new post to your board. You can set the title, description, category (type), and optionally attribute it to a user by email.
Update feedback postUpdates an existing post by its ID. Use it to change the status, category, or other fields.
Create changelog updatePublishes a new changelog entry.
For the Create feedback post action, if you pass a user email, Sleekplan finds or creates that end-user and attributes the post to them. Leave the email blank to create the post without a specific author.

Example workflows

  • Post a message to a Slack or Microsoft Teams channel every time you get a new feedback post.
  • Create a row in Google Sheets or Airtable for each new CSAT response to track satisfaction over time.
  • When a deal closes in your CRM, use Create feedback post to log the customer’s requested feature on your board.
  • When a support ticket is tagged in your help desk, Create feedback post so the request is captured for your product team.
