Actions

In Zapier, data flows into an Action from a Trigger (or other Action), which then (typically) performs a corresponding action on an outside service.

The Files.com Zapier application supports several Actions that will perform corresponding actions on Files.com.

Because Zapier will not allow Files.com to publish Actions until a customer actually uses them, we are unable to present a full compliment of available actions like we do on other iPaaS tools.

If you have a need for additional actions, please reach out to us. We would be happy to add support for anything you require.

To initiate a support conversation, you can send an Authenticated Support Request or simply send an E-Mail to support@files.com.
