Activating Trigger: Go back to InstantUploader and navigate to "Triggers". Activate the "Send Lead to Zapier" trigger that will fire upon lead creation. If you don't see such a trigger, then go to the next step.
If you see a "Send Lead to Zapier" trigger, simply activate it. Otherwise create one.
Creating a Trigger: If you haven't already activated the "Send Lead via Zapier" trigger in the previous step, you'll need to create it now. Start by clicking "Add Trigger" to create a new trigger, and name it "Send Lead via Zapier". In the "Which event should trigger this automation" field, select "Content added, updated or deleted". In the "Select automation's filter" field, choose "All", then click "Add Filter". From the Select Filter dropdown, choose "Content type", then select "Lead" from the Select content type dropdown. In the "What actions should we perform" section, click "Add Action" and select "Zapier". For additional assistance, please refer to the triggers guide.
Follow the settings displayed in this screenshot to accurately configure a Zapier trigger that activates upon the creation of a lead.
Creating a Test Lead: Create a content of "Lead" type manually. In this example, a lead named "Robert" with an email is created. You'll need to save the lead by clicking "Next" and then once again on the following screen.
Checking CRM: Go to your CRM and refresh the contacts page. You should see the lead that you just created.
