How to set up a Moneypenny trigger
All Zaps set up will require this step if a pre-built template is not being used.
1. Log in to your Zapier account and navigate to your dashboard.
2. Click ‘Create Zap’ which can be found in the top left corner of your screen.
3. Search for ‘Moneypenny’ on the app event search box and select the top option, which will be the newest version. This will take you to the trigger setup box.
4. Click on the ‘Trigger Event’ box and select ‘Message Received’ and then press ‘Continue’.
5. Choose your Moneypenny account. If your Moneypenny login details are not already stored, you will need to click ‘+Connect new account’.
6. Log in with your Moneypenny credentials (the ones you use for the app/portal) and then click continue. Remember, you must be an admin to do this.
7. You will need to set up your trigger by selecting recipients. In the ‘Choose value’ box search for the name or call type that you wish to create the Zap for e.g. you may be setting up a Zap for your new enquiry calls to drop into your chosen platform. We recommend that you select just one recipient or call type per Zap set-up.
8. Once your recipient has been selected, you will need to click ‘Test trigger’. Once the test has run, click ‘Continue’ and begin adding your actions.
Flock Action setup:
1. Once you have set up your trigger, you will need to set up your ‘Action’.
2. Search for your chosen platform in the ‘App Event’ search box.
3. Choose Flock, select your ‘Action Event’ as ‘Send Channel Message’, then click continue.
4. Log in using your Flock details, then click ‘Continue’. If your login isn’t stored in the list when you click on the “choose an account” box, you will need to click “+ Connect a new account”.
5. You will now need to select the ‘Channel’ within which you would like your Moneypenny messages to be dropped into.
6. You can manually type into the ‘Message’ box to fill in your message, as per the example below. Alternatively, you can just add in the data that is captured by Moneypenny. Once happy, click ‘Continue’.
7. Hit “Test & Continue” and you will automatically receive a test message within your ‘Channel’. When the test is successful, you are ready to turn on the Zap and start receiving your Moneypenny messages within Flock.
