❗ATTENTION: Our Support Team can now set up Carrot to REISift Zaps for you.
Don’t have a paid Zapier plan? We can add the Zap to our account—just let us know in the form below.
Have your own Zapier account? Fill out the integration request form and include your Carrot and Zapier login details. We’ll set everything up and let you know when it’s ready.
Prefer to do it yourself? No problem! Instructions are below.
*Note: You’ll need a paid Zapier plan—Carrot uses webhooks, which aren’t available on Zapier’s free tier.
If you have not integrated your REISift account with Zapier, check out the Zapier Integration article.
Note: Zapier access is by private invite link located in the article above.
You will need the following tools:
Carrot account
REISift account
Zapier
Step 1: Set Up Zapier for Carrot to REISift Integration
Open Zapier: Log in to your Zapier account or create one if you don't have it. Ensure you have a paid Zapier plan, as free trials may not support web hooks.
Create a New Zap: Click on "Make a Zap" or "Create a New Zap" to start the integration process.
Name Your Zap: Give your Zap a name, such as "Carrot to REI Sift - Step 1."
Choose a Trigger App: Search for "Webhooks by Zapier" and select it as the trigger app.
Select a Trigger Event: Choose "Catch Hook" as the trigger event.
Copy Webhook URL: Once you've selected "Catch Hook," Zapier will provide you with a custom webhook URL. Copy this URL as you'll need it later.
Step 2: Configure Carrot Integration
Access Your Carrot Account: Log in to your Carrot account.
Find Your Form: Navigate to the form on your Carrot website that collects lead information. In the video, it's referred to as "What do you have to lose? Get started now."
Access Form Settings: Click on "Content," then "Forms," and find the form you want to integrate (e.g., "What do you have to lose? Get started now").
Configure Zapier Integration: Click on "Edit" for the chosen form and hover over "Settings." Select "Zapier" to set up the integration.
Add New Zapier Feed: Click on "Add New" and name it something like "Carrot to REI Sift - Step 1." Ensure it's active.
Paste Webhook URL: Paste the webhook URL you copied from Zapier into the appropriate field.
Save Zapier Feed: Click "Save Zapier Feed" to save your settings.
Step 3: Return to Zapier
Continue in Zapier: Go back to your Zapier setup and click "Continue."
Access REI Sift Account: Log in to your REI Sift account.
Configure REISift Integration: Set up the integration with REISift using the Zapier Integration Private Invite Link, for more information please see the Zapier Integration Article
Select the latest version of Zapier (will have the Latest flag next to the newest version).Choose Action Event: Select the trigger event, such as "Create Update Property."
Map Fields: Map the fields from Carrot to REISift as per your requirements. Include property address (street), city, state, zip code, status (set as "Lead"), and assign it to a team member if you choose (enter email). You can also select to send to a new Carrot list and tag as Carrot Step 1. To send with the status New Lead, select Custom Status and type in new_lead.
Test the Trigger: Test the trigger to ensure it's working correctly.
Skip Test: Since this is a test and not an actual lead, you can skip the test.
Turn On Zap: Turn on your Zap to enable the integration.
*Note: version 1.0.17 of REISift in Zapier has New Lead available to select under Property Status. For previous versions, you will need to select Custom and type in new_lead
If you are wanting to trigger a sequence by this property status, do not update the property status in this create/update event.
Instead, click the plus sign under the create/update event and add a new event to Add Status to Property, select the property status and map the property address fields. Then save and test your zap.
Changing the status in a separate event allows the status to be be changed AFTER the property record is created so the sequence can be triggered.
See a video example here.
Step 4: Set Up Step 2 Integration (Optional)
If you have a second step in your Carrot form (e.g., "Step 2"), you can repeat the process to create a second Zap for that step. Follow the same steps but name it "Carrot to REISift - Step 2" and make sure to use the correct webhook URL and field mappings for Step 2.
Step 5: Test the Integration
Go back to your Carrot website and submit a lead through your integrated form.
Check your REISift account to ensure that the lead information is correctly added to your records.
Verify that the integration works as expected by checking if the lead data is correctly mapped to the corresponding fields in REISift.
Note: These records will be located under the Incomplete tab because they do not have owner information (mailing address). Please be sure to select the "Incomplete" tab on the records page when searching for the new Carrot leads.
By following these steps, you can connect your Carrot.com website to REISift using Zapier and automate the process of getting leads from your online marketing efforts into your REISift account.
