How Zapier works
Zapier makes it easy to integrate Trail with Basecamp - no code necessary. See how you can get setup in minutes.
Choose a trigger
A trigger is the event that starts your Zap—like a "Task Completed" from Trail.
Add your action
An action happens after the trigger—such as "Create Campfire Message" in Basecamp.
You’re connected!
Zapier seamlessly connects Trail and Basecamp, automating your workflow.
Supported triggers and actions
Zapier helps you create workflows that connect your apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and an action is an event a Zap performs.
