Zapier Use Cases
Ever since the Zapier integration with OwnerRez launched as a public beta in February and became a fully integrated feature in May, many members of the OwnerRez community have been busy creating hundreds of zaps to automate their daily tasks.
What are zaps?
If you’re asking yourself what, exactly, a “zap” is, it is an integration between web applications that allows users to automate tasks between the two. The online platform, Zapier makes this easy by providing a no-code method of connecting a trigger in one web application with an action in another.
For instance, there is a zap that integrates Facebook and Gmail. The trigger and action are when a new post appears on your Facebook timeline (trigger), an email is automatically sent to your Gmail account (action).
You could do this manually, but it would require constantly monitoring your Facebook feed, then manually selecting each new post and selecting the method to share it, which would be very tedious and time-consuming. This zap automates this for you.

OwnerRez Zaps
While OwnerRez has a multitude of existing built in integrations and functionality, it’s nice to have even more options to automate your workflow with the business web apps you already use and rely on.
Let’s take a look at some of the ways OwnerRez users have leveraged the power of Zapier to create zaps to streamline their workflow.
When a new guest is created in OwnerRez, Create a HubSpot contact.
Many OwnerRez users use HubSpot for marketing, sales, content management, and customer service. This zap will help keep your HubSpot contact list current with your OwnerRez guest list by automatically creating a contact in HubSpot whenever a new guest is created in OwnerRez.
