This page documents all available commands in the Zapier SDK CLI.

Installation

npm install @zapier/zapier-sdk
npm install -D @zapier/zapier-sdk-cli @types/node typescript

Global Options

These options are available for all commands:
OptionShortDescription
--version-VDisplay version number
--help-hDisplay help for command
--credentials <token>Authentication token.
--credentials-client-id <id>OAuth client ID for authentication.
--credentials-client-secret <secret>OAuth client secret for authentication.
--credentials-base-url <url>Override authentication base URL.
--debugEnable debug logging.
--base-url <url>Base URL for Zapier API endpoints.
--tracking-base-url <url>Base URL for Zapier tracking endpoints.
--max-network-retries <count>Max retries for rate-limited requests (default: 3).
--max-network-retry-delay-ms <ms>Max delay in ms to wait for retry (default: 60000).
--max-concurrent-requests <count>Max concurrent in-flight HTTP requests (default: 200, max: 10000).
--approval-timeout-ms <ms>Timeout in ms for approval polling. Default: 600000 (10 min).
--max-approval-retriesMaximum number of sequential approval rounds per request (one per gating policy) before giving up. Default: 2.
--approval-modeApproval flow behavior for manual approvals. “poll” creates the approval, opens it in a browser, polls until resolved, and retries the original request. “throw” creates the manual approval and throws a ZapierApprovalError with the approval URL so the caller can surface it. Server-created auto-mode approvals always poll until they reach a terminal status and retry the original request on approval, even when this option is “throw”. “disabled” throws a ZapierApprovalError on approval-required responses without creating an approval. Resolution order is: explicit option, then ZAPIER_APPROVAL_MODE, then the default behavior (poll for interactive TTY, throw otherwise).
--open-auto-mode-approvals-in-browserBy default, auto-mode approvals do not open in a browser. Enable this option to open the approval URL and watch the approval process. Resolution order is: explicit option, then ZAPIER_OPEN_AUTO_MODE_APPROVALS_IN_BROWSER, then false.
--can-include-shared-connectionsAllow listing shared connections.
--can-include-shared-tablesAllow listing shared tables.
--can-delete-tablesAllow deleting tables.
--jsonOutput raw JSON instead of formatted results

Connections

create-connection

Create a new app connection, end-to-end. Mints the start URL via get-connection-start-url, prints it to stderr, opportunistically opens it in a browser when it looks safe to do so (skipping CI / SSH / headless-Linux by default — pass --browser always to force, --browser never to suppress), then polls via wait-for-new-connection until the user completes OAuth and the new connection appears. Returns the connection. This is the right command for most callers. Reach for the lower-level building blocks when you want either of: (a) hand off the URL and not block on completion — call get-connection-start-url alone, no wait-for-new-connection needed, or (b) do something custom between minting the URL and waiting — call get-connection-start-url, do your work (email or DM the URL, render a QR code, etc.), then wait-for-new-connection. Options:
OptionTypeRequiredDescription
<app>stringYesApp slug (e.g., ‘github’), implementation name (e.g., ‘SlackCLIAPI’), or versioned ID (e.g., ‘github@1.2.3’)
--browserstringNoWhen to auto-open the URL in a browser. auto (default) opens in local sessions and skips opening in CI / SSH / headless-Linux. always forces the open attempt. never skips it. The URL is always printed to stderr regardless — a failed or skipped open degrades gracefully to copy-paste.
--timeout-msnumberNoHow long to wait for the user to complete the connection flow before giving up. Default 5 minutes (300_000).
--poll-interval-msnumberNoDelay before the first poll request, in ms. Default 3 seconds (3_000). Subsequent polling cadence is managed by the SDK’s polling primitive (backoff with sane defaults).
Usage:
npx zapier-sdk create-connection <app> [--browser] [--timeout-ms] [--poll-interval-ms]

find-first-connection

Find the first connection matching the criteria Options:
OptionTypeRequiredDescription
[app]stringNoApp key of connections to list (e.g., ‘SlackCLIAPI’ or slug like ‘github’)
--searchstringNoSearch term to filter connections by title
--titlestringNoFilter connections by exact title match (searches first, then filters locally)
--ownerstringNoFilter by owner, ‘me’ for your own connections or a specific user ID
--accountstringNoAccount to filter by
--include-sharedbooleanNoInclude connections shared with you. By default, only your own connections are returned (owner=me). Set to true to also include shared connections.
--expiredbooleanNoShow only expired connections (default: only non-expired connections are returned)
Usage:
npx zapier-sdk find-first-connection [app] [--search] [--title] [--owner] [--account] [--include-shared] [--expired]

find-unique-connection

Find a unique connection matching the criteria Options:
OptionTypeRequiredDescription
[app]stringNoApp key of connections to list (e.g., ‘SlackCLIAPI’ or slug like ‘github’)
--searchstringNoSearch term to filter connections by title
--titlestringNoFilter connections by exact title match (searches first, then filters locally)
--ownerstringNoFilter by owner, ‘me’ for your own connections or a specific user ID
--accountstringNoAccount to filter by
--include-sharedbooleanNoInclude connections shared with you. By default, only your own connections are returned (owner=me). Set to true to also include shared connections.
--expiredbooleanNoShow only expired connections (default: only non-expired connections are returned)
Usage:
npx zapier-sdk find-unique-connection [app] [--search] [--title] [--owner] [--account] [--include-shared] [--expired]

get-connection

Execute getConnection Options:
OptionTypeRequiredDescription
--connectionstring, numberNoConnection alias or connection ID (UUID or positive integer). Strings that match a key in the connections map are resolved against it; otherwise the value is used as a connection ID directly.
Usage:
npx zapier-sdk get-connection [--connection]

get-connection-start-url

Mint a short-lived URL that begins an SDK-initiated connection flow. The URL is signed by zapier.com and bound to the current user/account — opening it in a different browser session will fail the binding check. Returns the URL as data so the caller decides what to do with it. Use this directly (rather than the higher-level create-connection) when you want either of: (a) hand off the URL and not block waiting for completion — call this alone, skip wait-for-new-connection entirely, or (b) do something custom between minting the URL and waiting for the connection — call this, then email or DM the URL, render it as a QR code for mobile sign-in, etc., then call wait-for-new-connection. For the common case where you’d just print and poll back-to-back, create-connection is one call. Pair with wait-for-new-connection to detect completion: pass the startedAt returned here straight through (it’s the server’s mint time, so polling isn’t affected by client clock skew). Example (JS):
const {
  data: { url, app, startedAt },
} = await zapier.getConnectionStartUrl({ app: "slack" });
// hand `url` off — print it, DM it, email it, render a button, whatever
const { data: conn } = await zapier.waitForNewConnection({ app, startedAt });
Options:
OptionTypeRequiredDescription
<app>stringYesApp slug (e.g., ‘github’), implementation name (e.g., ‘SlackCLIAPI’), or versioned ID (e.g., ‘github@1.2.3’)
Usage:
npx zapier-sdk get-connection-start-url <app>

list-connections

List available connections with optional filtering Options:
OptionTypeRequiredDescription
[app]stringNoApp key of connections to list (e.g., ‘SlackCLIAPI’ or slug like ‘github’)
--searchstringNoSearch term to filter connections by title
--titlestringNoFilter connections by exact title match (searches first, then filters locally)
--ownerstringNoFilter by owner, ‘me’ for your own connections or a specific user ID
--connectionsarrayNoList of connection IDs to filter by
--accountstringNoAccount to filter by
--include-sharedbooleanNoInclude connections shared with you. By default, only your own connections are returned (owner=me). Set to true to also include shared connections.
--expiredbooleanNoShow only expired connections (default: only non-expired connections are returned)
--page-sizenumberNoNumber of connections per page
--max-itemsnumberNoMaximum total items to return across all pages
--cursorstringNoCursor to start from
Usage:
npx zapier-sdk list-connections [app] [--search] [--title] [--owner] [--connections] [--account] [--include-shared] [--expired] [--page-size] [--max-items] [--cursor]

wait-for-new-connection

Wait for a new connection to appear for the given app. Polls /api/v0/connections with server-side ordering=-date until the most recent matching row’s date is at or after the started-at timestamp, then returns it. Pair with get-connection-start-url — that mints the URL the user opens, this waits for the resulting connection to land. Errors with a timeout after the configured timeout (default 5 min). Example (JS):
const {
  data: { url, app, startedAt },
} = await zapier.getConnectionStartUrl({ app: "slack" });
// show `url` to the user via the channel they're reading from
const { data: conn } = await zapier.waitForNewConnection({ app, startedAt });
Options:
OptionTypeRequiredDescription
<app>stringYesApp slug (e.g., ‘github’), implementation name (e.g., ‘SlackCLIAPI’), or versioned ID (e.g., ‘github@1.2.3’)
<started-at>numberYesUnix timestamp (seconds). Only connections whose date is at or after this value count as ‘new’. Prefer the startedAt returned by get-connection-start-url — it’s server-stamped, so the comparison isn’t thrown off by client clock skew. If you mint the timestamp yourself, capture it before showing the start URL so a fast OAuth completion isn’t missed.
--timeout-msnumberNoHow long to wait before giving up. Default 5 minutes (300_000).
--poll-interval-msnumberNoDelay before the first poll request, in ms. Default 3 seconds (3_000). Subsequent polling cadence is managed by the SDK’s polling primitive (backoff with sane defaults).
Usage:
npx zapier-sdk wait-for-new-connection <app> <started-at> [--timeout-ms] [--poll-interval-ms]

watch-trigger-inbox

Continuously consume a trigger inbox: drain currently-available messages via onMessage, then subscribe to SSE notifications for new arrivals until aborted. A periodic safety drain runs every maxDrainIntervalSeconds (default: 300) to guarantee forward progress if SSE events are missed. Resolves cleanly on signal abort or ZapierAbortDrainSignal from a handler. Transient drain failures (5xx, 429, network blips) retry indefinitely with bounded backoff until they succeed or the watch is aborted; it rejects on a fail-fast handler error, an initialization_failure, or a permanent HTTP error. Real-time wake-up health is reported on stderr: a warning when wake-ups pause and the watch falls back to the safety drain, plus (with debug) transient reconnect notices. Persistent drain failures likewise warn once on stderr while bounded-backoff retries continue. stdout (including —json NDJSON) is unaffected. Options:
OptionTypeRequiredDescription
<inbox>stringYesTrigger inbox identifier — UUID or name. Non-UUID values are resolved by name via the inbox list endpoint.
--concurrencynumberNoPer-message handler workers running in parallel. Defaults to leaseLimit, or 1 if neither is set.

--release-on-errorbooleanNoIf true, errors release the message when the drain finishes. If false (default), errors leave it leased until the lease timeout. ZapierReleaseTriggerMessageSignal always releases regardless.
--continue-on-errorbooleanNoIf false (default, fail-fast), the first handler error rejects and stops the drain. If true, handler errors are observed via onError and the drain continues. SDK-level errors (lease / ack / release) reject regardless.
--max-drain-interval-secondsnumberNoMaximum seconds between safety drain attempts (default: 300). The watcher subscribes to SSE notifications for near-real-time wake-ups; this interval is the backstop that guarantees forward progress if SSE events are missed or the connection drops undetected.
--execstringNoRun a binary per message with no shell interpretation. Message JSON is piped to stdin; exit code 0 acks, non-zero records the error per the same rules as a thrown handler. Pass extra argv after -- (e.g. --exec ./handler -- --verbose). Mutually exclusive with —exec-shell and —json.
--exec-shellstringNoRun a shell command per message. Message JSON is piped to the subprocess on stdin; exit code 0 acks, non-zero records the error per the same rules as a thrown handler. Interpreted by the platform’s default shell (sh on POSIX, cmd.exe on Windows). Mutually exclusive with —exec and —json.
--jsonbooleanNoStream each message as JSON to stdout (one record per line, NDJSON), acking as each write completes. Use for piping to other tools. Mutually exclusive with —exec / —exec-shell and the interactive default.
Usage:
npx zapier-sdk watch-trigger-inbox <inbox> [--concurrency] [--lease-limit] [--lease-seconds] [--release-on-error] [--continue-on-error] [--max-drain-interval-seconds] [--exec] [--exec-shell] [--json]
