Close + Email by Zapier

Close + Email by Zapier integrations

Add Close leads from emails parsed by Zapier

Trying to track more potential clients via email? Say goodbye to manual labor and empower your processes with some clever automation. During setup, you'll be provided with an email address that will trigger this Zap for each new incoming email; it will then automatically parse through the data and send the results to Close, where a new lead will be created for you, laying the foundation for your continued success.

Note: This is an advanced Zapier function that relies on previously set up Parser mailboxes. You can sign up for Parser and learn more about how it works on the Parser homepage.
