Docs / Build with your AI

Zapier

Point Zapier at the Build docs and your key, paste one sentence, and let it write the call.

On this page

Use Zapier for: something on a schedule. It reads the same docs as every other tool.

Where the key goes

Keep the key in the Zap step that calls Build, as the X-API-Key header, and not in a field that is shared. The key is always named BUILD_API_KEY, and the prompt names the variable, never the key.

Placeholder Fails a strict build (DOCS_STRICT=1).

The prompt

Paste this into Zapier. It points your AI at the docs and at your key, then says what you want.

Read https://build.sellermate.ai/SKILL.md. My key is in BUILD_API_KEY. Email me every Monday revenue, ad spend and TACoS, Amazon and Google Ads side by side.

A worked example

To write: a worked example in Zapier: the prompt, what Zapier writes, the call it makes to Build, and what you check before you run it

Expected output

The example above should end with: Monday email scheduled.

Placeholder Fails a strict build (DOCS_STRICT=1).

To write: a screenshot or sample of the real output for this prompt

If it breaks

Paste the error back into Zapier. Errors say what to change, and a 429 says when to retry. Reads are safe to run again.
