Choose a trigger

A trigger is the event that starts your Zap—like a "New Account" from Basecamp.

Add your action

An action happens after the trigger—such as "Add Labels to Issue" in GitHub.

You’re connected!

Zapier seamlessly connects Basecamp and GitHub, automating your workflow.

Supported triggers and actions

Zapier helps you create workflows that connect your apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and an action is an event a Zap performs.
