This document outlines the integration of the Frontcover Connect App with Zapier, a tool specifically designed to bridge your existing systems with your Frontcover community. Through this integration, you can effortlessly map user-related data from your system to the Frontcover platform using Zapier.
Action: Create Subscription
When a user fills out a subscription form on your system (such as a Squarespace Web Form) using their email address, this integration automatically generates a new subscription record within your Frontcover community.
How it Works
API Key Authentication
To enable this functionality, obtain your API key from the integration section of your Frontcover community dashboard at /dashboard/integration/zapier.
Note: You will only see newly created API Key once, prepare to copy it and paste to the Zapier connect account view with your community slug.
Use Frontcover Connect as the Action
After connecting to the Frontcover Connect App, you can utilize it for various actions. For instance, if you are using Squarespace and someone submits a form, the extracted values will be transformed into our format:
{
"subscriber_email" : "[email protected]",
"subscriber_first_name": "Joe",
"subscriber_last_name": "Doe",
"subscriber_phone_number": "+61123456789"
}
The subscriber_email field is required. The other three fields—subscriber_first_name, subscriber_last_name, and subscriber_phone_number—are optional but recommended. We use these values, input from the external system (in this case, Squarespace), to create a subscription record with the collected data in our system, related to your community. Each action will return an object like the one below:
{
"data": "xxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx",
"url": "http://www.frontcover.io/test/subscription?subscription_id=xxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx",
"message": "Subscriber created successfully"
}data: Frontcover Subscription Id
url: Frontcover community subscription management Link
message: response message
These details will appear as a new record in the ‘Subscribers’ section of your dashboard.
