Zapier – My feature wishlists for more integrations

Posted by on August 17, 2016

Introduction

The zapier site is a great automation system for different online services. It is similar to IFTTT but targeted at businesses. I think Zapier “almost” works for individual professionals and entrepreneurs. I’ve recently purchased a basic subscription.

My wishlists for integrations are…

Facebook wishlist ( not Facebook “pages” which Zapier focuses on )

  • I’d love a trigger for when I post something on my account
  • I’d like a trigger for when somebody tags me in a picture
  • I’d like an action to change my profile picture

PushBullet wishlist

  • I’d like to be able to push things to zapier so i could filter and feed into other apps…

Dropbox/Onedrive/GoogleDrive/Gmail

  • I’d love to be able to move files – ie after some action is successfully triggered by a new file in a folder, move that same file to a different “done” folder. I accept that deleting a file would be a dangerous thing but surely moving a file would be a safe action (with renaming if needed)
  • Trigger by the number of items in a folder so i could remind my self to file things in my “inbox” folder

Other wishlist

  • I’d love to have locations with geofences trigger actions. ie when i leave or enter a location. So maybe a way of pushing location data into a trigger that could be filtered by location and other criteria (speed / duration etc)
  • An app for my android/iOS  phone/tablet/watch to send to webhook triggers ( possibly with text ,  image , location data )
