Integrate Zapier Using Webhooks in Lime Appointments
Setting Up A Webhook Trigger in Zapier
Step 1: Log in to your Zapier account or create an account on Zapier
Step 2: Create a New Zap
Once logged in, choose the Create Zap option in your Zapier Dashboard. You’ll be redirected to the Zap Editor screen. You’ll need to select the Webhook app as the trigger; this is what we’ll use to integrate with Zapier on our end.
A zap is an automated task that you want to run repeatedly between two online apps.

When it asks you to Choose App & Event, make sure to choose Catch Hook, this will allow us to receive the Appointment information automatically and organize the fields we pass to it.
Step 4: Customize the Hook for Webhooks
Copy the Custom Webhook URL so that we can paste this back into Lime Appointments.
