How to read this reference

  • Exact names

    Every step is named exactly as Zapier shows it, so you can search for it in the Zap editor. Older names such as Generate PDF Link or Update Status are out of date.

  • Required fields

    Fields marked * must be filled. Most actions find their document by its visible Document Number, which earlier QuoteCloud steps pass on.

  • Plan tags

    The app itself is on Essentials and up. A tag marks a step that relies on a Business feature, such as the approval workflow or scheduled send.

Reference questions

How many triggers does QuoteCloud have in Zapier?

21. They cover documents (created, status changed, accepted, signed by a recipient, signing complete, first viewed, expired, lost), payments (paid, part paid, payment events), delivery, forms, comments, workflow reviews, contacts and products. Each Zap starts from one of them.

What's the difference between Recipient Signed Document and Document Signing Complete?

Recipient Signed Document fires once for each signer, when they complete every signature field assigned to them. Document Signing Complete fires once, when all required signatures are done. Use Signing Complete to mark a deal won or file the signed PDF.

How does a Zap find a QuoteCloud document?

By its Document Number, which QuoteCloud steps pass on, or with a search. Find Document by Field matches a number, ID, title, subtitle or custom field exactly, including capitalisation, and returns the newest match, so storing a CRM deal ID in a custom field gives a reliable key.

Why does the PDF link stop working?

Generate or Fetch Document PDF Link returns a short-lived, secure link on purpose. Use it in the same Zap, straight away: the next step should upload the file to storage or attach it to a record, rather than save the link for later.
