Integration with Zapier

Zapier Overview

Zapier is a third party service that helps to connect different web applications. You can use Zapier to connect Zoho Mail with other applications around the web. It automates the flow of information from one web app to the other. You can link your account with the pre-built zaps, or setup your own zap to create a new workflow and automate the link between two apps. 

A basic zap in Zapier will have a trigger from a specific web app and an action in another web app.  

Example: You can set up a zap to create a new note in evernote, whenever you receive a new email to your 'ideas' folder.  On the contrary, you can also set up a zap to send an email, whenever you receive a new tweet that mentions you.
