1. Setting up the first zap

Initial trigger and authentication

First, you have to get your API credentials from your Creatopy account. If you skipped it or haven't yet gotten your API authentication details, follow Step 2 in the document below to get them ready.

📔Getting started with Zapier integration

Once you have your API credentials, click the Access Zapier link on the same screen. You'll get to the screen below, where you have to accept the invitation to create your first zaps.

In Zapier, when setting up your first Zap, you must define a trigger that will automatically activate the Creatopy app to generate creatives. A trigger can be adding a new row to a Google sheet or an Excel file where you store the details of the creatives you want to generate through Zapier, adding a product to your website or Shopify store, adding a new client to your CRM, or getting data through a form.

After you set up your first trigger, you'll have to select the action that gets triggered. Search for "Creatopy" and select Creatopy (1.0.0), then choose the Event Generate creative.

Next, you have to connect your Creatopy account, so you'll get a sign-in screen like the one below. This is where you'll use the client ID and secret key (Client secret) you got from Creatopy's API credentials screen. Copy and paste them into their respective fields.

From here, we'll move on to the actions you can do with the Creatopy app in Zapier and finish setting up your Zap.
