Add the API action. Add APIVerve as the action, select the Website Screenshot API, and map your trigger data to the request.
- 3
Send it back. Add a second Zendesk action for "Create ticket" and map the returned fields (like width) into it.
- 4
Test & turn on. Test the Zap with real data to confirm the mapping, then turn it on.
Set up with Make

Add the trigger. Create a scenario and add a Zendesk module set to "New ticket". Authenticate your account.
