1.Detects button click on record
Integrate Zapier Tables to capture record identifiers and instance identifiers from the button click to trigger the lookup.
Write cloud instance state back to record after check
Automatically watches Zapier Tables button clicks across Zapier Tables and Amazon EC2. Create and update when status refresh is requested, instance identifier is provided, or availability changes—so you can update instance state, record availability, and keep data current without manual updates.
How this automation updates live instance records
When a status refresh button is clicked, stale infrastructure records can cause slow troubleshooting and missed incidents. This automation looks up instance state and updates your originating record in real time—so your team can act on the latest server truth.

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.
