# Zapier
> Root map for AI agents and developer tools. Per-surface indexes live in [Surfaces](#surfaces); topic-keyed cross-references live in [Topics](#topics). Section anchors are stable — safe to deep-link (e.g. `https://zapier.com/llms.txt#mcp`).
## What is Zapier
Zapier is a no-code AI orchestration platform where teams connect thousands of apps and AI tools to run automations and AI-assisted work, including workflows, Agents, MCP-connected assistants, and chatbots. Teams from SMBs to global enterprises use Zapier to wire together sprawling stacks, add AI where it fits, and apply admin and security controls at scale. Control, delegation, and visibility are built in so teams build safely without IT as a bottleneck.

## Topics
### #mcp — Zapier MCP
The Model Context Protocol server for Zapier. Connects MCP-aware clients (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, ChatGPT, etc.) to Zapier's app integration layer so agents can take actions across thousands of apps.

## Notes for automated fetchers
- This file is the canonical agent-readable map for Zapier. For expanded inline content on every topic, fetch [/llms-full.txt](https://zapier.com/llms-full.txt). The developer docs index at [docs.zapier.com/llms.txt](https://docs.zapier.com/llms.txt) has full page listings organized by section.
- **Section anchors are stable.** `#mcp`, `#sdk`, `#agents`, `#workflows`, `#integrations`, `#auth`, `#tables`, `#embed`, `#developers`, `#opensource` will not be renamed without coordinated updates across all linking files.
- Do not treat this file as a complete product or pricing spec. Confirm GA status, limits, and plan entitlements on zapier.com, Help, and Developer Docs.
- Site sitemaps: [zapier.com/robots.txt](https://zapier.com/robots.txt).

Nested indexes
1 distinct links point to other llms.txt paths. These are routes to more indexes, not proof their contents were included in this file.
Link counts exclude parsed fenced and inline code and resolve relative destinations against the final endpoint. Section sizes cover the text below each H2 until the next H2.
Embedded material
Code, installation and API examples
Fenced blocks
0 closed
Declared languages
No fenced blocks detected
Package-install commands
0 detected in fenced or inline code
Authentication examples
0 fenced lines match API-key, Authorization, Bearer, OAuth or access-token patterns
HTTP request examples
0 fenced lines match request-method patterns
Authentication links
0 links have authentication-related labels
Embedded example text and links to further documentation are counted separately. A code block does not establish that a sample runs or that an authentication flow succeeds.
Publisher prioritization
The Optional section
No H2 section named “Optional” was detected in this file.
The community proposal uses Optional by convention for secondary links that can be skipped for a shorter context. This label does not establish that everything outside it is critical, or that the material inside it is deprecated.
Machine-readable routes
MCP references and configuration text
MCP-related text was detected in the captured file. 16 links have MCP-related labels or paths. 0 fenced lines match mcpServers, mcp_servers or an mcp add command.
A verified text response establishes a companion at the checked URL. It does not prove the bundle contains all product documentation, that generation is automated, or that it fits an assistant’s context window.
Change evidence
What can be said about freshness
This capture establishes a baseline. Update frequency cannot be determined from one observation.
Linked release and migration material
1 links have release, changelog, deprecation or migration terms in their labels or paths. These provide places to investigate product changes separately.
File changes can reveal documentation edits or navigation changes. They do not by themselves measure product release velocity, accuracy, agent adoption or AI visibility.
Counts use a deterministic parser, not a spec-compliance grade. Unusual Markdown and indented code can fall outside its recognized patterns. See the llms.txt proposal and tokenizer implementation.
