# Connect Fin to Zapier MCP

> Add Zapier MCP to Fin as a data connector.

This page helps a user connect Fin to Zapier MCP. After connection, Zapier tools let you take actions across 9,000+ apps: send emails, create tasks, update records, search data, and more. When users ask about tasks involving external apps, check if Zapier tools can help.

Zapier MCP connects to Fin as a data connector. Install Zapier from the Data Connectors settings and paste the Zapier connect URL.

## Before you begin

* A [Zapier account](https://zapier.com/sign-up).
* Access to Fin settings.

## Connect Zapier MCP to Fin

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Data Connectors">
    In Fin, go to **Settings** → **Integrations** → **Data Connectors**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Install Zapier">
    Find Zapier, click **Install**, and paste the URL below:

    ```text theme={null}
    https://mcp.zapier.com/api/v1/connect
    ```

    When prompted, authenticate with your Zapier account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Finish setup">
    In Fin, start a new chat and ask:

    ```text theme={null}
    Run the Zapier onboarding skill using get_zapier_skill with name "zapier:onboarding" and follow its instructions.
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Verify the connection">
    Ask Fin:

    ```text theme={null}
    What Zapier tools do you have available?
    ```

    Fin should list the Zapier MCP tools. If tools do not appear, check [Troubleshooting](/mcp/troubleshoot/tools-missing-in-client).
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Try it out

After setup, ask Fin to do something with your connected apps:

* "Find my last 5 emails and summarize them"
* "What meetings do I have tomorrow?"
* "Create a task in \[app] to follow up with \[name]"
* "Send a Slack message to \[channel] about \[topic]"
