2.1 Setting up your second zap (Creatopy trigger)

Decide what to do with your newly generated creatives

Now, you need a trigger that will activate the next action: what to do with the newly generated creatives.

There are 2 types of triggers available to use in Zapier with the Creatopy app:

• The Creatopy trigger verifies once in a while when your creatives are ready, and once they're ready, it will push the following action to start.

• The webhook trigger - which gives you more freedom if you want to use the payload returned from Creatopy when your creatives are ready.

2.1. Setting up Creatopy trigger

Depending on how many creatives you're generating, it can take a while for the job to be done. This trigger is fixed, and it verifies once in a while if your creatives are ready, and when they're done, it pushes the next action to start. The time it takes to push the next action depends on your Zapier subscription - for a premium subscription, the verification happens quicker and more often. Nonetheless, it works all the same.

To set up this trigger, create a new zap and search for the Creatopy app. Select Creatopy (1.0.0) and choose the event Creative generated trigger.

In the previous step, when you finish setting up the action to generate creatives, when you test the action, you get a success message that also returns a code. This code needs to be used in the next step when setting up the Creatopy trigger. Below is a screenshot of where to find the code. Each code will be unique to a zap, so use it only once. If you want to create multiple zaps, you must create multiple triggers. Remember that each action needs a trigger, and each trigger will activate an action.

With the code from the action in the previous zap, you paste it in the Code field in your Trigger zap like below.

Then, you have to test the trigger. When the creatives are successfully generated, you get a success message and the creatives' URL. If there were any problems and the job failed, you'll get an error message, which you can use to troubleshoot.

To get a successful message here, you must run the first zap successfully because the creatives need to be generated, so you receive a download link here.

All that's left to do now is to set up the following action, as in what to do with your creatives' URL - you can send them in a zip file to your inbox, send them to a cloud storage (Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.), or to another app that you use and it integrates with Zapier.

Next, we'll see how to set up a webhook trigger.
