With Zapier integration, you can automate workflows between Ticket Spot and other applications without writing any code. It enables triggering actions such as New Attendee, which occurs when a new attendee is created, and New Ticket Order, which happens when a new ticket order is placed. Once the event is triggered, you can automate the flow, like sending a customized email through Gmail or other actions, to ensure smooth communication and streamlined operations. Let’s get started 🚀

Trigger the Action: Ticket Purchase

As we’ve set up, when a new ticket is purchased, the trigger event activates, and the corresponding action (e.g., sending a draft email) will occur.
  • Ticket Purchase: When a user buys a ticket, it triggers the Zap.
  • Action: A draft email is automatically sent to the recipient (as configured earlier in Gmail).

After triggering the Zap, open Gmail and check for the draft email. You’ll see that the draft email was automatically created and sent after a new ticket purchase in Ticket Spot. draft-email Your Zap is fully set up and tested successfully; the workflow will run automatically each time a ticket is purchased.
