Installation
Global Options
These options are available for all commands:
Boolean flags are presence toggles and take no value: pass
--flag to enable it, or omit the flag to use the default. Flags where disabling differs from omitting document a separate disable flag (e.g. --disabled). A value after a boolean flag (--flag false) is rejected as an extra argument.

Actions
create-action-run
Start an action run and return its ID without waiting for the result. Running an action is asynchronous: this hands back a run ID immediately, and getActionRun fetches the outcome. Reach for this pair when you want to start work and collect it later (fan out many runs, hand the ID to another process, survive a restart). runAction is the one-call form that starts a run and waits for its result.
Options:
Usage:
get-action
Get detailed information about a specific action
Options:
Usage:
get-action-input-fields-schema
Get the JSON Schema representation of input fields for an action. Returns a JSON Schema object describing the structure, types, and validation rules for the action’s input parameters.
Options:
Usage:
get-action-run
Fetch the current state of an action run started by createActionRun. This is a point-in-time read that returns immediately: a run Zapier has not finished executing comes back with status waiting, so call again to check for a result. runAction starts a run and waits for its result in one call. Results are stored for seven days after the run was created.

Options:

Connections
create-connection
Create a new app connection, end-to-end. Mints the start URL via get-connection-start-url, prints it to stderr, opportunistically opens it in a browser when it looks safe to do so (skipping CI / SSH / headless-Linux by default — pass --browser always to force, --browser never to suppress), then polls via wait-for-new-connection until the user completes OAuth and the new connection appears. Returns the connection.
This is the right command for most callers. Reach for the lower-level building blocks when you want either of: (a) hand off the URL and not block on completion — call get-connection-start-url alone, no wait-for-new-connection needed, or (b) do something custom between minting the URL and waiting — call get-connection-start-url, do your work (email or DM the URL, render a QR code, etc.), then wait-for-new-connection.
Options:
Usage:
find-first-connection
Find the first connection matching the criteria
Options:
Usage:
find-unique-connection
Find a unique connection matching the criteria
Options:
Usage:
get-connection
Get details for a specific connection
Options:
Usage:
get-connection-start-url
Mint a short-lived URL that begins an SDK-initiated connection flow. The URL is signed by zapier.com and bound to the current user/account — opening it in a different browser session will fail the binding check. Returns the URL as data so the caller decides what to do with it.
Use this directly (rather than the higher-level create-connection) when you want either of: (a) hand off the URL and not block waiting for completion — call this alone, skip wait-for-new-connection entirely, or (b) do something custom between minting the URL and waiting for the connection — call this, then email or DM the URL, render it as a QR code for mobile sign-in, etc., then call wait-for-new-connection. For the common case where you’d just print and poll back-to-back, create-connection is one call.
Pair with wait-for-new-connection to detect completion: pass the startedAt returned here straight through (it’s the server’s mint time, so polling isn’t affected by client clock skew). Example (JS):
Usage:
list-connections
List available connections with optional filtering
Options:
Usage:
wait-for-new-connection
Wait for a new connection to appear for the given app. Polls /api/v0/connections with server-side ordering=-date until the most recent matching row’s date is at or after the started-at timestamp, then returns it. Pair with get-connection-start-url — that mints the URL the user opens, this waits for the resulting connection to land. Errors with a timeout after the configured timeout (default 5 min). Example (JS):
Usage:
HTTP Requests
curl
Make authenticated HTTP requests to any API through Zapier. Pass a connection ID to automatically inject the user’s stored credentials (OAuth tokens, API keys, etc.) into the outgoing request. Use it in place of the native curl command with additional Zapier-specific options.

Triggers
ack-trigger-inbox-messages
Acknowledge messages from a lease. Acked messages are removed from the inbox; unacked ones return to the available pool when the lease expires.
Options:
Usage:

Options:
Usage:
delete-trigger-inbox
Mark a trigger inbox for deletion
Options:
Usage:
drain-trigger-inbox
Drain an existing trigger inbox: lease currently-available messages and process them via onMessage. Returns when the inbox is empty, maxMessages is reached, the abort signal fires, or a fatal error rejects.
Options:
Usage:
ensure-trigger-inbox
Get-or-create a trigger inbox by key. Idempotent on (user, account, key): returns the existing inbox if a matching subscription is registered, creates a new one otherwise. Throws ZapierConflictError if the key exists with a different subscription.
Options:
Usage:
get-trigger-inbox
Get details of a trigger inbox by ID
Options:
Usage:

Usage:
pause-trigger-inbox

Options:
Usage:
release-trigger-inbox-messages
Release messages from a lease back to the inbox without acknowledging them. Released messages become immediately available for re-leasing. The lease attempt still counts against the per-message lease limit; releasing does not refund the attempt.
Options:
Usage:
resume-trigger-inbox
Resume a paused trigger inbox; events resume being collected
Options:
Usage:
update-trigger-inbox
Update settings on an existing trigger inbox
Options:
Usage:
watch-trigger-inbox
Continuously consume a trigger inbox: drain currently-available messages, then subscribe to SSE notifications for new arrivals, until aborted. Stop via the signal AbortSignal or by throwing ZapierAbortDrainSignal from a handler. Transient drain failures (5xx, 429, network blips) retry indefinitely with bounded backoff; real-time wake-up and drain health warnings print to stderr. Resolves cleanly on abort; rejects on a fatal error or a fail-fast handler error. stdout (including —json NDJSON) is unaffected.
