Zapier

What is Zapier?
​Zapier is an online platform that helps you automate workflows by connecting your apps and services you use. With Zapier, you can connect Keeping to hundreds of other tools like Google Sheets, Pipedrive, Trello, or Slack.
You'll need to set up an account on Zapier before you can connect it to Keeping.  Zapier has a generous free plan along with paid plans.
Currently, Keeping supports Zapier integrations that move your support ticket data FROM Keeping TO other tools.  In the future we plan to support integrations that allow you to create and update tickets inside Keeping.
Example Zapier Integrations
Update Slack when a new ticket arrives
Create a Keeping integration with Zapier and Slack so that you are notified in a Slack channel when a new ticket is created.  Or go a step further and notify individual users in Slack when they are assigned a ticket.
Keep a log of all support tickets in Google Sheets
Use Google Sheets and Zapier to keep a log of your support tickets.  When a new ticket is created, add a row to a spreadsheet with whatever data you like.
Update a customer record in your CRM when a new ticket is created
When a new ticket arrives, create or update an entry in your CRM to keep all of your customer data in one place.  For example, you could connect Keeping to Pipedrive with Zapier.
Turn new assigned ticket into Asana tasks
When a new ticket is assigned, create a task in Asana (or any other project management tool) to keep track of it's progress.
