Reach 360: An Introduction to Zapier and Reach 360

Reach 360 is a flexible, cost-effective distribution tool to deploy your e-learning content and reach more learners, directly. 

Zapier lets you connect and sync data between thousands of other web services to automate your day-to-day tasks and build workflows between apps that otherwise wouldn't be possible.

Together they can make your Reach 360 experience even better. Here’s how to get started.

About Zapier

Zapier uses automated connections, called Zaps, that you set up in minutes with no coding. Each Zap has one app as the Trigger, where your information comes from and which causes one or more Actions in other apps, where your data gets sent automatically. You can sign up for a Zapier account here: https://zapier.com/apps/reach/integrations.

Connecting Reach 360 and Zapier

You'll be prompted for an API key when you connect Zapier to your Reach 360 account. Learn more about how to generate API keys here. 

Once you've generated a new API key to connect Zapier, you'll be able to use the available instant triggers and actions to create all kinds of workflows as shown below

Available Instant Triggers

You can use these events to trigger actions in your Zaps.

• Course Completed - when a learner completes a course
• User Created - when a user is added to your Reach 360 account
