Zapier Integration

Connect Optiverse to 8,000+ apps through Zapier using a simple API key and webhook trigger.

Optiverse has a native Zapier integration that fires a trigger every time a meeting ends. This lets you route meeting data (summaries, transcripts, action items, attendees) into any of Zapier's 8,000+ connected apps without writing code.

How the Integration Works

Unlike generic webhook setups, Optiverse appears as a dedicated app inside Zapier's trigger picker. The connection is authenticated with an API key you generate in Optiverse. Once connected, Zapier receives a payload from Optiverse each time a meeting finishes processing, and you build whatever action steps you need on the Zapier side.

The flow is straightforward:

  1. A meeting ends and Optiverse processes the recording
  2. Optiverse fires the trigger event to Zapier with the meeting data
  3. Zapier runs your configured action steps (send email, update CRM, post to Slack, create task, etc.)

Because Optiverse sends structured data fields (title, date, attendees, summary, transcript), you can map each field directly to inputs in downstream Zapier actions. No parsing or formatting needed.

Setting Up the Connection

Step 1: Generate Your API Key in Optiverse

  1. Go to Settings > Integrations > Zapier
  2. Click Generate API Key
  3. Copy the key. You'll paste it into Zapier in the next step.

Treat the API key like a password. Anyone with it can receive your meeting data. If you suspect it's been compromised, generate a new one (which invalidates the old key).

Step 2: Connect Optiverse in Zapier

  1. Log in to Zapier and create a new Zap
  2. For the trigger, search for Optiverse in the app picker
  3. Select the trigger event (meeting ended)
  4. When prompted to connect your Optiverse account, paste the API key you generated
  5. Test the trigger. Zapier will pull in a sample meeting payload so you can see the available fields.

If Optiverse doesn't appear in the Zapier app picker, use the Zapier invite link shown on your Optiverse integration page to add Optiverse to your available triggers.

Step 3: Build Your Action Steps

Once the trigger test succeeds, add one or more action steps. You have access to all the fields Optiverse sends:

FieldWhat It Contains
Meeting TitleThe name of the meeting from your calendar
Date & TimeWhen the meeting took place
AttendeesList of participants
OrganizerWho scheduled the meeting
SummaryThe AI-generated meeting summary (follows your active protocol)
TranscriptThe full conversation transcript
Action ItemsTasks and follow-ups detected during the meeting

Map these fields to inputs in your downstream actions. For example, map "Summary" to the body of a Gmail draft, or "Action Items" to a task description in Asana.

What You Can Automate

Here are practical workflows teams commonly build:

WorkflowTrigger → Action
Auto-send summary to emailMeeting ends → Gmail sends summary to attendees
CRM deal updateMeeting ends → HubSpot/Salesforce updates deal notes
Slack digestMeeting ends → Slack posts summary in a team channel
Task creationMeeting ends → Asana/Jira creates tasks from action items
Spreadsheet loggingMeeting ends → Google Sheets adds a row with meeting metadata
Document generationMeeting ends → Google Docs creates a formatted meeting report

Combining with Protocols

The summary field Zapier receives follows whichever protocol is active for that meeting. This means you can control exactly what data reaches your automations by configuring the right protocol.

For example, if you use a sales discovery protocol (like MEDDIC), the summary field will contain structured fields like budget, timeline, decision criteria, and next steps. Your Zapier actions can then map those directly into CRM fields.

Zapier vs. n8n

Both platforms receive Optiverse meeting data and automate downstream actions. Choose based on your needs:

Zapiern8n
Best forQuick no-code automationsComplex multi-step logic, self-hosted
SetupAPI key, works in minutesWebhook URL, slightly more config
PricingFree tier (limited tasks), paid plans scaleFree self-hosted, paid cloud option
Custom logicPaths and filtersFull code nodes, branching, loops
App ecosystem8,000+ apps400+ nodes plus HTTP/code for anything

You can use both simultaneously. For example, use Zapier for simple "send summary to Slack" automations and n8n for complex workflows that require conditional logic or self-hosting.

Availability

The Zapier integration is available on the Pro plan and above. Check Pricing for details.
