An interface between awork and all your favorite apps? Set up useful automations easily and without programming knowledge? It sounds like a dream, but Zapier makes it possible - for free and in just a few minutes.
In your daily work, you have to juggle numerous apps to manage your workflow. You need to make sure that all your apps and data are up to date and that nothing gets lost. Unfortunately, this still happens manually far too often. The result: a lot of repetitive work, distraction, and increased error rate.
But what if you could skip these steps and simply focus on the important areas of your work by automating the annoying part?
You probably already know automations from awork - they are super easy and quite helpful. However, they are limited to automations within awork. Imagine if you could create automatic connections between awork and other apps! With Zapier, you can. You can connect different apps to workflows, whether simple or complex. This way, you save a lot of valuable time that you can invest more sensibly.
You can give each Zapier automation its own logic. Based on if/then rules, you can automate workflows between awork and almost any app you can think of. And the best part? You do all this in no time at all with the highest security and reliability.
In this post, you will learn what Zapier can do in combination with awork and how you can take your daily workflow to the next level with the help of Zapier. βοΈ

What is Zapier?
β
Thanks to Zapier, you can connect awork with over 6000 different apps and let them interact with each other. This works in both ways: an action in awork can trigger a corresponding reaction in another app, or vice versa. Sounds good? It gets even better: the whole thing can be implemented quickly, easily, and clearly without any prior knowledge and is completely free of charge for you.
β
This works by creating automated workflows, the so-called "Zaps". A Zap is a self-created if-then rule. The "if" rule is called a trigger in Zapier and corresponds to a cause of action. The "then" rule is referred to as action and corresponds to the action that follows the trigger.
β
awork can act as both a trigger and an action. Various triggers and actions are available in awork:
β
Examples of triggers in awork:β
- New task created
- New time recorded
- Time entry updated
- Many more
β
Examples of actions in awork:β
- Create a new project
- Create a new company
- Create a new project task
- Many more
