When creating a Zapier integration, you can either:

  • Run extractions in Sensible and then act on the data with a Sensible trigger.
  • Trigger extractions automatically outside of Sensible, then act on the data with a Sensible action.

Sensible action

You can bypass the Sensible app, API, or SDKs and instead trigger Sensible extractions with file actions in Google drive, email, or other supported Zapier apps. Then send the extraction to the destination of your choice with a Sensible action.
