In Zapier, you can trigger a Lutra Playbook whenever another step in your Zap completes. For example, when a new row is added in Google Sheets, or a new lead arrives in your CRM.
Prerequisites
A Zapier account.
Your Webhook URL and X-Lutra-Webhook-Token from Lutra (obtained via the Playbook’s “Webhook” button dialog).
Step-by-Step Setup
Create or Edit a Zap
Sign in to Zapier and create a new Zap or edit an existing one.
Choose the app and trigger that should start this workflow (e.g., new spreadsheet row, new email, etc.).
Add a “Code by Zapier” Action
In Zapier, add an Action step.
Choose “Code by Zapier” and set the Event to “Run Javascript.”
Configure Input Data
In the Input Data section, add the fields you want to pass to Lutra’s Playbook. For example,
conditionoruser_email—whatever your Playbook needs.
Paste the JavaScript
In your Lutra webhook dialog, you’ll see a sample block of JavaScript that calls
fetch(...)with the webhook URL and token.It looks like this:
// NOTE: This code will be auto-generated when you create a
// Webhook on Lutra. This is just an example specific to a
// Playbook for adding to a Google sheet.
const requestBody = {
"condition": inputData["condition"],
"destination_sheet": {
"id":"1234567890abcdef",
"mime_type":"application/vnd.google-apps.spreadsheet",
"name":"Heart Attack Clinical Trials"
}
};
const response = await fetch(
"https://lutra.ai/api/webhooks/<WEBHOOK_ID>/runs", {
method: "POST",
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"X-Lutra-Webhook-Token": "<YOUR_TOKEN>"
},
body: JSON.stringify(requestBody),
});
if (!response.ok) {
throw Error(`${response.status}: ${await response.text()}`);
}
output = {
status: response.status,
text: await response.text()
};Replace
<WEBHOOK_ID>with your actual webhook ID and<YOUR_TOKEN>with the token Lutra provided.Adjust the
requestBodyfields to match what your Playbook expects.
Test & Activate
In Zapier, Test Action to ensure it triggers your Lutra Playbook correctly.
Check Lutra logs or your Chat to confirm the run was created.
Activate the Zap once everything looks good.
Note: If your Playbook requires specific property types or inputs, you may need to adjust how you pass the data in the JavaScript. Some advanced parameters might need to be simplified (e.g., passing a string instead of an object).
