By integrating Zapier with Social Snowball, you can easily connect Social Snowball to thousands of apps with just a few clicks! Events that happen in your Social Snowball account can now trigger action events to occur in 3rd party apps (and vice versa)!

As of right now, the following actions and triggers can be used in a Zapier automation:

Trigger

Definition

Social Snowball - Signed up as an affiliate via manual creation

Triggers when an affiliate is added to a program via manual creation

Social Snowball - Signed up as an affiliate via manual upload

Triggers when an affiliate is added to a program via CSV upload

Social Snowball - Signed up as an affiliate via sign up form

Triggers when an affiliate signs up for a program from a sign up form

Enrolled in Social Snowball through purchase

Triggers when an affiliate is added to a program from completing a purchase on your store

Social Snowball - New referral sale

Triggers when an affiliate drives a successful referral and any fraud filters are cleared

Examples of Zaps you can make:

  • Add emails of new Social Snowball affiliates to Facebook Custom Audiences

  • Add new Social Snowball affiliates to Attentive, Omnisend, or any other tool's subscriber lists

  • Create Social Snowball affiliates from new Privy sign-ups

  • Create new Social Snowball affiliates from Google Sheets rows, store popups, product reviewers, recurring customers, etc., and add them to your preferred program.

The possibilities are endless here!

Here's how to do it:

If you don't already have a Zapier account, you'll first need to make a free account.

Type the name of the app you want to integrate with into the search bar, or choose from some prebuilt templates shown below!

Once you've selected the app you want to integrate with, use the arrows to make sure the correct trigger and action events are set, and then click the Connect button.

When connecting Zapier to Social Snowball, you'll be asked you to login to your account and an OAuth screen asking you to approve the connection.

If you are not logged in, you may have to click the connect button twice (once again after you login) to see the OAuth approval screen.

Once you approve the connection, you'll be able to continue with building the Zap.

You'll have to do this same approval process for the 3rd party app you are connecting Social Snowball as well.

While building the Zap, you'll be asked to pair custom properties from Social Snowball into their respective fields in the other app (or vice versa). Make sure you fill these in accurately!

Here's a list of commonly used custom properties from Social Snowball that you can use with Zapier:
