1.Captures new push payload
Integrate Zapier Chrome extension and browser push tools to capture push payload fields and map to instance selection metadata.
Start multiple cloud instances with a single browser push
Automatically capture New Push payloads across Zapier Chrome extension and map them to instance selection metadata. Instantly start your EC2 instances in sequence when push payloads arrive, environment group fields are set, or instance references are present—so you can protect against manual console work.
How this automation starts your EC2 instances reliably
When browser pushes trigger cloud changes manually, teams waste time clicking consoles and can miss initialization order. This automation captures push payloads and starts EC2 instances and delays sequencing—so your team can bring environments online fast.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism — I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier helps us close far above 50% more deals than we would without it. It is a key element of our overall strategy and, therefore, of our sales pitch.
Raphael Bochner, Founder and CIO
Zapier gives us unlimited flexibility and creativity. With Zapier, you're like an artist with a blank canvas. I don't know what we'd do without it.
