Hi there…
That has frustrated me for years. I’ve come to the realization that Zapier will never update this.
So… the workaround is to use Webhooks.
-
When a new membership is created, trigger that Webhook to send a message into Zapier.
-
Zapier receives that with the email address of the newly signed up Member.
-
Zapier sends that newly signed up Members email into your email software.
-
Trigger a broadcast email from your email software to all subscribers for every new blog post.
You can get more detailed with this workflow, that’s just a high-level overview. For example, have a checkbox on Membership signup to join the newsletter. Only add Members that have accepted the invite, etc…
For the Webhooks setup…
-
I’ve got a free tool, the Webflow Webhook Creator that makes it drop dead easy to setup Webhooks.
-
For Zapier, setup a “Webhooks by Zapier” zap, and the URL that they provide is what you stick into the “Destination URL” field for the tool above.
-
Set your “Webflow Webhook Trigger” to membership account added, or whatever works best for you:
- And then grab your API key.
Now every new Membership created will send that info into Zapier for you.
Hope that helps!
