Zapier MCP connects AI clients to the apps a business already runs on. Instead of preloading a fixed set of tools, the agent gets discovery tools and searches Zapier's catalog — 9,000+ apps and 66,000+ triggers and actions — for the right action, then runs it with credentials managed by Zapier.
It works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP-compatible clients, and is included in every Zapier plan rather than sold as a separate product.
Core capabilities
App discovery at runtime — the agent searches for the capability it needs instead of you configuring each action up front.
Managed authentication — app credentials stay in Zapier's connection layer, not in the model or the prompt.
9,000+ app integrations — Gmail, Slack, Salesforce, HubSpot, Google Calendar, Notion, Airtable, Shopify and many more.
Code Actions — when no standard action fits, the agent can write and run code to reach an internal API or reshape data.
Skills — save a workflow that worked as a reusable skill across supported clients.
History and controls — review every MCP action, choose which apps and actions an agent can use, and revoke access.
Enterprise governance — app- and action-level access controls, workspace scoping, managed connections, audit history and SOC 2 Type II.
Zaps handoff — turn a successful agent workflow into a Zap that runs on a trigger without a human in the loop.
Example use cases
Cross-app catch-up: summarize what changed in Slack, Gmail and Calendar and flag what needs a reply.
Meeting prep: pull the account context from Calendar, Gmail and Salesforce before a customer call.
Internal API enrichment: fetch data from a private API and update HubSpot records.
Reusable operations: save a meeting-prep workflow as a Skill and run it from any client.
Getting started
Open mcp.zapier.com and connect the apps you want the agent to use.
Add the Zapier MCP server to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another client.
Ask for an outcome rather than a specific action; the agent discovers and runs the right tools.
Review what ran in History, and tighten app/action permissions as needed.
Save repeatable workflows as Skills or promote them to Zaps.
Pricing
Zapier MCP is included in every Zapier plan. Each tool call consumes two tasks from the plan's existing task quota, so there is no separate MCP subscription. See zapier.com/pricing for task allowances.
