Overview

Issue credentials straight from Zapier

The Sertifier app on Zapier connects your credential campaigns to thousands of other tools. Choose a trigger from the app you already use, add the Sertifier action, and map the recipient fields. Each time the trigger fires, Sertifier creates and publishes a branded, verifiable credential for that person.

How it works

How the Zapier integration works

  1. Prepare your campaign

    In Sertifier, set up the design, credential details, and email template you want to send.

  2. Create a Zap

    Pick the trigger app and event, for example a new row in Google Sheets.

  3. Add the Sertifier action

    Choose Add and Publish Credential, then connect your account with your Sertifier API key.

  4. Map fields and turn it on

    Select the campaign, map name and email, test the Zap, and switch it on.

What you can do
