Zapier

Introduction
​Zapier makes it simple to connect the apps you already use so they can work together and automate tasks. For example, you can connect Google Sheets or Airtable to Mattermix and create new images when a record is created or updated. Zapier supports over 3,000 apps, so the possibilities to automate your workflows are endless!
If it's your first time using Zapier be sure to check out the Zapier Help Center or follow our video tutorial: Automate image creation with Zapier.

Select Template
Select a Template from the dropdown menu.
Select a Template from the dropdown
Once selected, you will see new fields load that will represent all the Components in a Template that can be updated. The Component ID will be visible at the top of each field group. You can use this ID to identify the Component in your Template by selecting the Component in the Editor and viewing the ID at the top of the Toolbar.
Componet fields load after Template is selected
Map values to Components
Once the Component fields are loaded, you can map values from previous steps in your Zap. Not all fields need a value mapped to them. If a field is blank it will use the default value from the Template.
