Trigger Zapier Zaps from Couchdrop file uploads and events

Couchdrop connects to Zapier as an outbound connection, allowing files received through Couchdrop to start a Zap automatically.

You link a Couchdrop folder to a Zapier webhook trigger. When a file is uploaded into that folder, Couchdrop sends the file to the webhook URL generated by Zapier, which then starts the Zap you have configured.

This gives Zapier users a secure managed file transfer layer for receiving files over SFTP, FTP, and other supported transfer methods before passing those files into no-code workflows for routing, notifications, app updates, or internal processing.

Zapier requires a Pro subscription or higher to use webhook triggers, and Zapier will not process files larger than 5 MB.
