Setup and Configuration
Limo Anywhere and Zapier work together using Zaps. Managed in Zapier, Zaps receive your data from one service and send it to another service. Zaps can be configured to receive data from or send data to Limo Anywhere.
Configuring a Zap
A simple overview of configuring a Zap:
- Start a Zap: Use your Zapier account to create a new Zap.
- Finalize your Zap: Finish configuring your trigger, action, (optional) filters and data. Test your zap using the supplied sample data, then activate your Zap.
On-screen instructions provide assistance. If needed, more detailed instructions for each of the steps are below.
Step 1: Start a Zap
To get started, we recommend using one of the recommended Zaps. A recommended Zap is typically quicker than hand-crafting your own from scratch:
From your Zapier Dashboard, set up a new Zap:
- Set Trigger: Click the ‘Create a new Zap‘ button. In the Trigger Service dropdown, choose Limo Anywhere, and choose a trigger using the additional dropdown – for example, New Reservation.
- Set Action: In the Action Service dropdown, choose a service to send your Limo Anywhere data to – for example, Google Calendar. In the Action dropdown, choose your desired action and click Continue.
Leave your Zapier Dashboard open, you’ll come back to it shortly.
Step 2: Finalize Your Zap
- Continue: Click the big orange I’ve followed the instructions ‘Continue‘ button.
- Configure your Action: Configure what happens in the service you are sending to. Follow the on screen instructions, and when you have finished click ‘Continue‘.
- Filters: Create an optional Filter if you want to fine tune when your Zap fires.
- Configure Data: You have specified where your data goes and when, now you need to specify the Limo Anywhere trip information that gets sent. Fill out the available data fields with a combination of your own text and data fields (click the field insert button at the top right of the box to add fields). When you have finished this step, click ‘Continue‘.
- Test: Try out your Zap using the sample/test data shown next to your fields. When you have finished this step, click ‘Continue‘.
- Name Your Zap: Give your Zap a name. Choose a name that describes the function of the Zap and is easier to understand.
- Make it Live: Click the Make Zap Live button.
When your Limo Anywhere trigger fires, data will be sent to your Zap to be processed.
