Step-by-Step Integration Guide
Follow these instructions to connect EmailVerify.io with Zapier and create your first automated workflow (Zap).
Gmail Integration
Use Case: Automatically verify email addresses of new contacts who email you.
Step 1: Create a New Zap
From your Zapier dashboard, click Create Zap and rename it to something descriptive, e.g., “Verify new Gmail contacts.”
Step 2: Configure the Trigger
The trigger is the event that starts your automation.
- In the Trigger section, search for and select the app where your emails come from (e.g., Gmail).
-
Choose the specific trigger event, such as: Gmail: "New Email"
-
Follow Zapier's prompts to connect your account (if not already connected) and configure the trigger settings.
Step 3: Add EmailVerify.io as the Action
The action is what Zapier does after the trigger event.
- Click Add Step, select Action, and pick EmailVerify.io from the list.
Choose one of the available actions:
- Email Validation: To check the validity of a single address.
- Email Finder: To find an email using a name and domain.
Step 4: Connect Your EmailVerify.io Account
- In the EmailVerify.io action step, click Connect a new account.
- A pop-up will prompt you to enter your API key.
- Go to your API & Integration page, generate or copy your API key, and paste it into the field in Zapier.
- Click Yes, Continue, or Save to finalize the connection.
Step 5: Configure the Action and Test
- Map the Data Fields: In the Email field, select the sender’s email address from the Gmail trigger (the “From” address of the email).
- Test the Action: Click Test Step. Zapier will send a sample request to EmailVerify.io. If successful, you’ll see a response showing the verification result (e.g., "valid," "invalid," "role-based," etc.).
- Publish Your Zap: Once the test runs successfully, turn your Zap on.
