Find actions in an app

Find actions in an app

Returns the actions Zapier can run in an app, such as sending a message or finding a record, so the right one can be enabled and run.

Note: Over MCP, enable the action you need as a tool with enable_zapier_action before running it. Discover app and action keys at runtime rather than hardcoding them.

Set up

Use the first option your agent supports.

MCP (official, remote)

Add this server to your agent's MCP settings, then sign in when asked.

{ "mcpServers": { "zapier": { "url": "https://mcp.zapier.com/api/v1/connect" } } }

Call the MCP tool discover_zapier_actions.

Server URL: https://mcp.zapier.com/api/v1/connect

CLI (official)

Install the command and sign in with it, then confirm it runs.

npm install -g @zapier/zapier-sdk-cli
zapier-sdk --version

Run zapier-sdk list-actions.

Before anything else, confirm access with the cheapest read-only call, like a list or a search. Never send or change anything to test access.

Rules

• Ask the user before anything that sends messages, costs money, or changes data, and say how many records it touches. One approval covers a batch the user has seen.
• Never print API keys.
