Overview

The Zapier integration allows you to connect Sight AI to over 5,000+ apps using Zapier’s “Webhooks by Zapier” trigger. When articles are published, Sight AI sends data to your Zapier webhook, which can then trigger any action in your connected apps.
  • Slack/Discord notifications — Get notified when new articles are ready
  • Project management — Create cards in Notion, Airtable, Trello, or Asana
  • Google Workspace — Add entries to Google Sheets or create Google Docs
  • Custom CMS — Connect to platforms not natively supported
  • Email marketing — Trigger newsletter drafts in Mailchimp or ConvertKit
  • Social media — Queue posts to Buffer or Hootsuite

How It Works

Zapier uses webhooks to receive data from Sight AI. Here’s the flow:
  1. You create a Zap in Zapier with “Webhooks by Zapier” as the trigger
  2. Zapier gives you a unique webhook URL
  3. You add that URL to Sight AI’s webhook integration
  4. When articles are published, Sight AI sends data to Zapier
  5. Zapier triggers your configured actions

Setup Instructions

Step 1: Create a Zap in Zapier

  1. Log into your Zapier account

  4. Select it as your trigger

Step 2: Choose “Catch Hook”

  1. Select “Catch Hook” as the event type

  4. You should see the test data from Sight AI

Step 5: Configure Your Zap Actions

  1. Add action steps to your Zap (Slack message, Google Sheet row, etc.)
  2. Map the article fields from Sight AI to your action
  3. Test your complete Zap
  4. Turn on your Zap when ready

  • Automatic — Webhooks are sent automatically when article generation completes

Tips & Best Practices

Use Zapier Filters

Add Zapier filters to only trigger actions for specific article types, categories, or keywords. This gives you fine-grained control over your automation.

Monitor Your Zaps

Check Zapier’s “Zap History” to see webhook deliveries and debug any issues. You can also view delivery logs in Sight AI’s Webhook integration page.

Build Multi-Step Zaps

Create powerful workflows by chaining multiple actions. For example:
  1. Receive article from Sight AI
  2. Create a draft in your CMS
  3. Add a row to Google Sheets for tracking
  4. Send a Slack notification to your team

Example Zaps

Slack Notification

Get notified in Slack when new articles are ready:
  1. Trigger: Webhooks by Zapier (Catch Hook)
  2. Action: Slack > Send Channel Message
  3. Map article.title and article.summary to the message

Google Sheets Tracking

Track all generated articles in a spreadsheet:
  1. Trigger: Webhooks by Zapier (Catch Hook)
  2. Action: Google Sheets > Create Spreadsheet Row
  3. Map article fields to columns (title, keyword, category, etc.)

Notion Database

Add articles to a Notion database for content management:
  1. Trigger: Webhooks by Zapier (Catch Hook)
