Zapier + ToolCenter
Connect ToolCenter with 7,000+ apps through Zapier. Automate screenshots, PDF generation, QR codes, SEO audits, and more — no code required.
What is Zapier?
Zapier is the leading no-code automation platform that connects over 7,000 apps. It uses "Zaps" — automated workflows with a trigger and one or more actions — to move data between services without writing a single line of code.
By combining Zapier with ToolCenter's Webhooks by Zapier action, you can trigger any of ToolCenter's 35+ APIs from events in Gmail, Slack, Google Sheets, Shopify, HubSpot, Notion, Airtable, and thousands more.
Popular Use Cases
Here are some of the most common workflows developers and teams build with Zapier + ToolCenter.
Automated Competitor Screenshots
Trigger: Daily schedule → Action: Screenshot competitor websites → Save to Google Drive or Dropbox for visual tracking.
Invoice PDF Generation
Trigger: New Stripe payment → Action: Generate PDF invoice via ToolCenter → Email to customer via Gmail.
SEO Monitoring Reports
Trigger: Weekly schedule → Action: Run SEO analysis on your pages → Post results to Slack or save to Airtable.
QR Code for New Products
Trigger: New Shopify product → Action: Generate QR code linking to product page → Save to Google Sheets.
Broken Link Alerts
Trigger: New blog post in WordPress → Action: Scan for broken links → Alert in Slack if any found.
Email Validation on Sign-up
Trigger: New form submission → Action: Validate email with ToolCenter → Add valid leads to HubSpot CRM.
Step-by-Step Setup
Create a new Zap
Log in to Zapier and click "Create Zap". Choose your trigger app (e.g., Gmail, Google Sheets, Shopify, Schedule by Zapier).
For example, select "Schedule by Zapier" if you want to run a daily screenshot workflow, or "New Row in Google Sheets" to process URLs from a spreadsheet.
Add "Webhooks by Zapier" as the action
Search for "Webhooks by Zapier" and select "Custom Request" as the action event. This gives you full control over the HTTP request.
Configuration
- Method: POST
- URL:
https://api.toolcenter.dev/v1/screenshot - Headers:
Authorization: Bearer tc_live_your_api_key
Content-Type: application/json
Configure the request body
In the "Data" field, add the JSON body for your API call. You can use Zapier variables to dynamically insert data from your trigger.
{
"url": "https://example.com",
"fullPage": true,
"format": "png",
"darkMode": true,
"blockAds": true,
"store": true
}
💡 Pro tip: Set "store": true to get a URL back instead of binary data — much easier to use in downstream Zapier steps.
Use the output in downstream actions
After ToolCenter processes your request, the response data becomes available in subsequent Zapier steps. You can:
- ✦ Save the screenshot URL to Google Sheets, Airtable, or Notion
- ✦ Send it via Gmail, Slack, or Microsoft Teams
- ✦ Upload to Dropbox, Google Drive, or S3
- ✦ Store in a CRM like HubSpot or Salesforce
- ✦ Trigger another Zap for multi-step workflows
