Zapier is a powerful no-code automation platform that lets you connect your Famous.ai app to thousands of other tools — like Google Sheets, Slack, Airtable, Mailchimp, and more.
With this guide, you’ll create a simple form in Famous.ai, send the captured data to Zapier, and trigger any action you want — no coding required!
Step 1 – Create a New App in Famous.ai
Start by logging into Famous.ai and creating a new app. In the prompt box, describe what you want — for example:
“I would like to create a customer data capture form to Capture Name and email address”
This ensures your app is structured with form inputs and logic to capture the necessary user data.
Step 2 – Connect with Supabase
Famous.ai uses Supabase to store and manage your backend data. When prompted, connect to your Supabase account — this allows your form to function dynamically and save data such as names, emails, or phone numbers.
If you're new to Supabase, don’t worry. You can follow our beginner-friendly tutorial:

Step 3 - Log into Zapier
Open a new tab and visit Zapier. Log in, or create a free account if you don’t have one.
Once you’re in, click the Create button at the top left.
Choose Zaps from the options. Zaps are automation workflows — you’ll be building one to catch your Famous.ai form submission.
Step 4 – Select to add a Trigger
Click the big Trigger box to begin creating the first part of your Zap.
Triggers are the starting events. In this case, your form submission will trigger the Zap.
Step 5 – Select webhook
You’ll need your Zap to listen for incoming data.
In the modal that appears, search for Webhooks by Zapier.
If you don’t see it on-screen immediately, just type “webhook” into the search bar.
Step 6 – Click to Choose an Event
When asked to choose a trigger event:
Select Catch Hook
This tells Zapier to wait for a webhook sent from another app (in our case, Famous.ai)
Step 7 – Copy your Webhook URL
Once you select Catch Hook, Zapier will generate a unique webhook URL.
Copy this URL — it’s the special link you’ll give to Famous.ai so that your form data knows where to go.
Step 8 – Tell famous.ai AI to add your Webhook URL
Return to your Famous.ai app and open your project.
Say: “I want to send form submissions to Zapier using this webhook URL.”
This will tell the Famous AI to integrate your webhook into the app’s submission logic.
Step 9 – Paste the Webhook URL in Famous.ai
When the AI asks for the webhook, paste in the URL you copied in Step 7.
This allows Famous.ai to send your form data directly to Zapier every time the form is submitted.
Step 10 – Confirm the AI’s Response
Carefully review the response from the AI. It should confirm that the webhook has been set correctly.
If you're unsure, you can type:
“Can you confirm the webhook was saved and used in the form submission?”
If anything seems off, try pasting the webhook again or asking the AI to re-add it.
Step 11 – Test the Form Submission
Visit your app preview or live URL. Fill in the form using test data — for example, use a fake name, email, and phone number.
Then click Submit. This test will help verify that the webhook is working correctly.
Step 12 – Check for Errors in the App
If the app shows any errors or something doesn’t seem to work, click the “Fix it” button that appears in Famous.ai.
You should ideally see a small success notification pop up after submitting the form. This is called a Success Toast.
If you don’t see it, ask the AI to add one by saying:
“Add a success toast after the form is submitted.”
Step 13 – Go Back to Zaper to See the Incoming Request
Now switch back to Zapier, find your Zap and click to add an Action.
Step 14 – Choose your Action type
You can send your data anywhere Zapier supports — but for now, try using the Code by Zapier action.
This lets you see your form data clearly.
Later, you could replace it with something like Google Sheets, Notion, Mailchimp, etc.
Step 15 – Map your incoming data from famous.ai
You should see a request in the Configure tab. Select it and start mapping your data.
For action type Code you can click Generate with AI. This will produce some simply code to see your data appearing.
Step 16 – Save the Action
Once done click Continue and you can Test it on the final tab.
Step 17 – Publish the Zap
In the top-right corner of the screen:
Toggle the switch to Publish the Zap
Your zap is now live and ready to handle real submissions.
Step 18 – Do a Final End-to-End Test
Go back to your Famous.ai app, fill out the form one more time with test data, and submit it.
Then return to your Zap in Zapier:
Select
Zap Runson the left and check it is appears
🎉 Congratulations! You should now all incoming data from your famous.ai app in your Zap. You can now select any Action you like to integrate this data with any of the third-party platforms available in Zapier.
