Connect Zapier and Expertise can run whatever actions you’ve configured on your Zapier MCP server, from posting a Slack message to updating a row in a spreadsheet to creating a record in almost any app Zapier supports. Reads are instant; anything that changes or sends something pauses for your approval first.

​
What you can ask

“What Zapier actions do I have available?”
“Look up the customer record for jane@acme.com.”
“Add a row to my leads sheet for this new signup.” (asks for approval before running)
“Post a summary of today’s demo to the #sales Slack channel.” (asks for approval before running)

​
Connecting

  1. Go to mcp.zapier.com and open (or create) your Zapier MCP server, then add the actions you want Expertise to be able to run.
  2. Click Connect on that server and choose the Other client to get your server URL, it looks like https://mcp.zapier.com/api/mcp/s/…/mcp.
  3. Open Connections in the dashboard, click Zapier → Connect, and paste that URL in.
  4. Ask Expertise what Zapier actions are available to confirm it’s live.

Tools

​
Good to know

  • The action list is yours. Expertise can only run actions you’ve added to your Zapier MCP server, to make a new one available, add it at mcp.zapier.com and Expertise picks it up automatically, no reconnect needed.
  • Each run costs Zapier tasks. A successful action uses 2 tasks from your Zapier plan, so Expertise won’t loop through calls you didn’t ask for.
  • Every write pauses for your approval, the approval card shows exactly which action is about to run before anything happens.

​
Troubleshooting

It can only see actions you’ve added to your Zapier MCP server, add the action at mcp.zapier.com, then ask again.
Reconnect from the Connections tile with a fresh server URL, the one pasted in may be stale or point at the wrong server.
