# Zapier MCP for Fin: setup with the data connectors menu

> Connect Fin to Zapier MCP by installing Zapier from Data Connectors in Fin settings, then authenticating with your Zapier account over the OAuth protocol.

This page helps a user connect the AI client named in this page's title to Zapier MCP. Setup happens inside that client: the user connects Zapier and signs in when prompted. Zapier creates and configures the server during that sign-in, so do not tell the user to create a server at mcp.zapier.com first.

If this is not the client the user is on, do not adapt these steps. Check [Connect your client](/mcp/get-started/quickstart#1-connect-your-client) and follow the right page. Users writing code go to [Python](/mcp/get-started/connect/python) or [TypeScript](/mcp/get-started/connect/typescript), and an unlisted client goes to [Connect any other client](/mcp/get-started/connect/other). Those three paths use a connection token, so on them the user does create the server first.

This page ends when the client is authenticated. Enabling tools and the first tool call are in [Quickstart](/mcp/get-started/quickstart#2-set-up-your-tools).

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.
