# Zapier Integration

> Automate workflows by connecting Flashquotes to thousands of apps

Generate an API key from Settings > Integrations to connect Flashquotes with thousands of apps.

## What it does

The Zapier integration allows you to connect Flashquotes with thousands of other apps and create automated workflows. Available for Pro tier subscribers, this integration helps streamline your operations through custom automations.

## Get your API key

<Steps>
  <Step title="Go to integrations">
    Navigate to Settings > Integrations
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate an API key">
    Find the Zapier card and click "Generate API key". On the Scale plan, the card is called "API & Zapier" — the same key also works for the full [REST API](/api-reference/introduction).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Copy API key">
    Copy the generated key for use in Zapier
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect in Zapier">
    Go to Zapier.com, search for Flashquotes, and enter your API key
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Warning>
  Keep your API key secure and never share it publicly.
</Warning>

<Note>
  You'll need a Zapier account and the Flashquotes Pro plan or higher. The full REST API needs Scale — see [API plan access](/api-reference/introduction#plan-access).
