# Zapier AI Actions API

zapier.com/nla version 1.0.0. The API exposes 5 endpoints secured with apiKey, oauth2 authentication.

## For AI agents

Programmatically check, get configuration link. Covers 5 operations with apiKey, oauth2 authentication.

## Scope

Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for developer tools only.

## Capabilities

- Check
- Get Configuration Link
- List Exposed Actions
- Execute App Action Endpoint
- Monitor Zapier AI Actions API operational status and events

## Use cases

### Developer Tools Operations

Use the Zapier AI Actions API to perform developer tools operations programmatically. The API provides 5 endpoints covering core functionality including check, get configuration link, list exposed actions.

Example prompt: Call GET /api/v1/check/ to check

### Automated Check Management

Automate check operations by combining multiple Zapier AI Actions API endpoints. Agents can get configuration link and then list exposed actions in a single workflow.

Example prompt: Call GET /api/v1/configuration-link/ to get configuration link, then verify the result

### AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Zapier AI Actions API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey, oauth2 tokens manually.

Example prompt: Search Jentic for 'check', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

## Key endpoints

| Method | Path | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| GET | /api/v1/check/ | Check |
| GET | /api/v1/configuration-link/ | Get Configuration Link |
| GET | /api/v1/exposed/ | List Exposed Actions |
| POST | /api/v1/exposed/{exposed_app_action_id}/execute/ | Execute App Action Endpoint |
| GET | /api/v1/execution-log/{execution_log_id}/ | Get Execution Log Endpoint |

## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring Zapier AI Actions by hand means choosing between its x-api-key header, query key, or OAuth flow, and tracking which exposed actions you may execute against actions.zapier.com yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import Zapier AI Actions from the API Directory, store the key once, and your agent calls it.
- **Permission scoping:** Zapier AI Actions puts the action id in the URL path (/exposed/{exposed_app_action_id}/execute/), so a rule can pin your agent to running one exposed action. You choose the operations it may call, so it can list and execute the action you allow without reaching the configuration link or other actions.
- **Credential handling:** Your Zapier AI Actions key is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
- **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'run an exposed Zapier action' or 'list available actions', and Jentic returns the matching Zapier AI Actions operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

## FAQ

### What authentication does the Zapier AI Actions API use?

The Zapier AI Actions API uses apiKey, oauth2 authentication. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

### Can I check with the Zapier AI Actions API?

Yes. Use the GET /api/v1/check/ endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

### What are the rate limits for the Zapier AI Actions API?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

### How do I check through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'check'. Jentic returns the matching Zapier AI Actions API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

### How many endpoints does the Zapier AI Actions API have?

The Zapier AI Actions API exposes 5 endpoints covering check, configuration link, execution log operations.

### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Zapier AI Actions API?

Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, you set the rules that decide which Zapier AI Actions operations and credentials your agent may use. Since the action id sits in the URL path at /exposed/{exposed_app_action_id}/execute/, you can pin the agent to a single exposed action and choose exactly which operations it may call. That lets it list and execute the one action you allow while keeping it from reaching the configuration link or other actions.
