Integrations are available on paid plans, so a free trial cannot create a Zapier key. - The Owner or Admin role in Truffle. Only admins can create, rotate, or revoke keys. - A Zapier account. ## Steps ### 1. Open the Zapier card Open **Settings** and choose **Integrations & API** under WORKSPACE. On the **Integrations** tab, find **Zapier** under Available and choose **Set up**. ### 2. Read the Zapier page The Zapier page opens, under **Integrations** in the breadcrumb. **Connecting Truffle + Zapier** holds your key. **Quick Start** lists the four steps: create a Zapier API key once, pick a template or build your own, choose **Truffle (API Key)** in Zapier and paste your key, then map fields, test and turn the Zap on. > Note: The left of the page loads Zapier's own template browser. If your browser blocks Zapier, that panel shows a message instead. Your key and your Zaps are unaffected. ### 3. Create the Zapier key Choose **Create Zapier Key**. **Create API key** asks for a **Name**, such as Zapier Integration, and an optional **Description**. Type the name and press Enter to create the key. ### 4. Paste the key into Zapier Truffle copies the new key to your clipboard and opens Zapier's Truffle page in a new tab. Paste the key there when Zapier asks for **Truffle (API Key)**. Back in Truffle, the card now reads **Zapier Integration** and shows only the start of the key, with **Manage Key** and **Disconnect**. > Note: Paste the key into Zapier straight away. Truffle shows only a masked version afterwards. ### 5. Build a Zap This step happens in Zapier. Truffle offers two building blocks. **Invite Candidate** pushes a candidate from another tool, such as your ATS or a form, into Truffle. **Interview Completed** triggers when a candidate finishes their interview, so you can send the result to Slack, a spreadsheet or your CRM. Map the fields you need, test, and turn the Zap on. > Note: Truffle's own spreadsheet recipe on the Zapier page uses the trigger "Screening Completed" with Create Spreadsheet Row in Google Sheets or Create Record in Airtable. ### 6. Disconnect Zapier **Disconnect** opens **Disconnect Zapier**. Type **Zapier Integration** to confirm, then choose **Disconnect Zapier**. The key stops working at once and Zapier's webhooks for your workspace are removed, so every Zap using the key stops until you create a new key. Manage the Zaps themselves in Zapier. ## FAQ **I lost the key. Can Truffle show it again?** No. Truffle shows only the start of the key after you create it. Disconnect, then create a new key and paste it into Zapier. **What can a Zap do with Truffle?** Invite Candidate pushes a candidate into Truffle from another tool. Interview Completed triggers when a candidate finishes their interview. **My ATS has no native connection. Can I use Zapier?** Yes. If your ATS is on Zapier, Invite Candidate can push its candidates into Truffle and Interview Completed can send results back. **Does disconnecting delete my Zaps?** No. It revokes the key and removes Zapier's webhooks for your workspace, so the Zaps stop running. You manage or delete the Zaps in Zapier. ## Exact labels in the product These strings are captured from the live product and verified automatically, so they can be quoted directly: `Integrations & API` · `WORKSPACE` · `Zapier` · `Set up` · `Connecting Truffle + Zapier` · `Create a Zapier API key to connect with Zapier.

AI surfaces the evidence and you make every decision. Scores never reject a candidate; the only automatic rejection is a qualification rule the employer writes. https://www.hiretruffle.com
