App Status by Zapier – Getting notifications of integration incidents

In Chapter 5, Troubleshooting and Handling Zap Errors, we discussed how to manage status alerts of your connected apps by monitoring the Zapier Status page and creating alert workflows. This is where we introduced the App Status by Zapier built-in app.

The App Status by Zapier built-in app can only be used as a trigger step and is available as the following trigger event:

• New or Updated App Incident (trigger)

This event will trigger on new, updated, and resolved app status incidents from the apps you specify.

Here are a few examples of when you could use this app:

• Send an email when there is a new, updated, or resolved incident with Mailchimp.
• Add a new task to Wrike when there is a new incident with Zoho Campaigns and Zoho CRM.
