-: So before we dive in,
I just wanna give you an overview of Zapier's layout.
Here you can see we have Create Zap,
which is what you're gonna create to create a Zap.
Underneath that, we have our dashboard.
So the dashboard will show you your recent Zaps.
These are all the Zaps that I have created
or started to create, and we have recommended for you,
and then some helpful links here,
including the learning center, hiring an expert,
and asking the community,
and of course, the standard links for their social media
and the different links for their website,
including the help center, pricing, et cetera.
If you go down to Zaps, you'll see the working icon
of the different Zaps that you have.
I'm gonna go ahead and turn these Zaps off for now.
You can create different folders
with this to add a private folder,
and you can have different Zaps
in different folders for different purposes.
You can go down to this transfer icon.
Now, the transfer is just like it says,
it sends data in bulk from one app to another.
So this is really useful when you are trying to transfer
a large amount of data from one place to another,
say like an email list or just some customer data,
something like that.
Then you would want to dive further into the transfer.
However, that's something I will not be exploring in depth
because those use cases are pretty niche.
If we go over to My Apps, you'll see the different apps
that I have selected that I want to use in my Zap.
If you wanted to add a new app,
you could search for it here.
Let's say Shopify.
Here I would need to connect to my Shopify
and probably add the API key
and any other information that Zapier needs.
But this is the window where you can add new connections
to different apps that you use.
Zap History shows you the usage
and the amount of tasks that you have automated
and the recent Zaps that you have just used,
along with a visual representation of your usage.
You can change the date, you can change the Zaps,
the apps, the folders, and really customize this layout
to whatever is most relevant to you, and go to Explore.
And this just takes you to a page on Zapier's website
that gives you resources and things to explore,
different apps to try.
You can look at the most popular.
You can explore what these different functions do,
watch some tutorials.
And if you're serious about using Zapier,
I do recommend spending some time on this page
just so you can really familiarize yourself
and see how are people using this tool.
Lastly, we have our Get Help.
This will take you to the help page
where if you do happen to have some errors
that you need to troubleshoot,
hopefully you will be able to find the answer here.
We see the amount of tasks and Zaps,
and we can manage our plan.
There's this convenient little help chat button right here
if you need some help with something.
And you can contact sales
if you wanna change your plan this way.
And if you click here and go into Settings,
you'll be able to see your billing information,
your password information.
I'm not gonna click this
so that you don't see all of my information.
But this is where you'd go
if you need to access that information.
I can't wait to jump into Zapier,
and I will catch you in the next lesson.
