Overview

What the AB Tasty Zapier integration does for you

Zapier is a tool that links apps together without code. With AB Tasty, it listens for six kinds of events in your testing account (a campaign created, a status change, a learning created or changed, a sequential testing trigger, an SRM alert) and pushes each one to another tool you already use.

An SRM alert that reaches the right person. Hook SRM Trigger to a chat tool, and the analyst on duty sees the alert in the channel they already watch, instead of finding it a day later in the dashboard.

A launch log nobody has to keep by hand. With New Campaign and Change Status, a product manager gets one row per launch and one per pause in a spreadsheet, which is enough to answer "what was live last week?" without opening AB Tasty.

A knowledge base that fills itself. Learning Created and Learning Changed can copy every learning into a wiki, so the next team that plans a test reads what the last one recorded.

Now the limit. AB Tasty on Zapier has no action and no search: a Zap can't create a campaign, pause one, or look anything up in AB Tasty. The flow goes one way, out. If a plan needs the reverse direction, compare the options in Make vs Zapier before building anything, or ask a Zapier agency to scope it.

Vocabulary

Zapier words in one minute

Seven terms come back on every line of this page. Here they are in plain English.

Zap
The automation you build on Zapier: one trigger first, then one or more actions that run each time that trigger event shows up.
Trigger
The event in an app that starts the Zap. Once the Zap is switched on, Zapier sits and waits for that event to happen.
Action
What the Zap does after it starts: the step that writes, sends or moves something for you in another app.
Task
The unit Zapier bills. One task is one action that your Zap completes successfully, and your plan counts those.
Instant vs polling trigger
An instant trigger is reported by the app the moment the event happens. A polling trigger is checked by Zapier on a timer.
Filter
A step that lets the Zap continue only when what arrived meets your condition, and stops it there otherwise.
Multi-step Zap
Any Zap beyond one trigger and one action. A second action or a filter turns a Zap into one, and it then needs a paid plan.
Cost

What AB Tasty on Zapier really costs

AB Tasty is not a premium app on Zapier, so it works from the free plan.

  • Free plan100 tasks a month
  • Steps on the free plan2 (one trigger, one action)
  • AB Tasty trigger0 task
  • Premium appNo

The AB Tasty trigger itself never costs a task. You pay only when an action in another app completes, and a failed action is not counted. Two catches. The free plan stops at 100 tasks a month and at two steps per Zap, so a filter or a second action pushes you to a paid plan. The interval grid below concerns polling triggers only: all six AB Tasty triggers are instant, so they fire straight away on any plan.

Connect

Connect AB Tasty to Zapier in 3 steps

  1. 01

    Open the Apps page

    In your Zapier account, go to Apps and click + Add connection. A connection is your AB Tasty account linked once, then reused by every Zap that needs it.

  2. 02

    Find AB Tasty

    Type AB Tasty in the search box of the dialog, pick it, then click Add connection. A new tab opens on the AB Tasty side, where the actual login happens.

  3. 03

    Sign in and allow access

    Log in to AB Tasty in that tab and grant Zapier access. You need an AB Tasty account, plus read access to any campaign data you don't own yourself and want a Zap to watch.

First Zap

Your first Zap: SRM alerts in Slack, then a Jira ticket

GoalWhen AB Tasty raises an SRM alert, post it to the experimentation channel and open a ticket for the analyst who owns the test.

  1. 01

    Create the Zap

    Start a new Zap in Zapier. Pick AB Tasty as the app that starts the Zap, and SRM Trigger as the event that starts everything.

  2. 02

    Choose the account

    Select your AB Tasty connection, then the AB Tasty account to monitor. That second choice is required, and it decides which tests the Zap hears about.

  3. 03

    Test the trigger

    Run the trigger test. Zapier brings back the three most recent items from the account, so you map fields on a real alert rather than a blank.

  4. 04

    Add Slack, then Jira

    Add the Slack step, write the message, and map the alert details into it. Then add Jira and map the same details into the ticket. Two actions make this a multi-step Zap, so it needs a paid plan.

  5. 05

    Test and publish

    Run each step once and read what came back. When both look right, click Publish: the Zap is on, and each future alert costs two tasks.

Triggers

The 6 AB Tasty triggers

6 events start a Zap when something happens in AB Tasty, and 6 of them are instant: the app calls Zapier straight away, whatever your plan.

1

Change Status

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a campaign changes status.”

A campaign in your AB Tasty account moves to another status, and this one starts a Zap. Watch it when people outside the testing team need to know what is running right now, without logging in.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan.
When to use it
a marketing lead wants a message every time a test on the pricing page changes status.
Watch out
you must pick which AB Tasty account to monitor, and the Zap hears nothing from the others.
2

Learning Created

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a Learning is created.”

Learnings are the notes your team records in AB Tasty. As soon as someone creates one, this trigger hands it to Zapier so it can travel to wherever your team keeps its notes.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan.
When to use it
a CRO consultant wants each new learning copied into a shared Notion page for the client.
Watch out
it only reacts to learnings created after the Zap is published. Older ones stay where they are.
3

Learning Changed

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a Learning is changed.”

Edits matter as much as first drafts. Someone reworks a learning in AB Tasty, and Zapier receives the edited version, which keeps any copy of it elsewhere from going stale.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan.
When to use it
pair it with Learning Created when a wiki page should always show the latest version of a learning.
Watch out
each edit starts the Zap again, so a learning revised five times costs five runs of every action behind it.
4

New Campaign

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a new campaign is created.”

Fresh campaigns are what this trigger reports. Each time a campaign is created in the AB Tasty account you chose, the Zap runs once, which makes it the natural starting point for a launch log or a review queue.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan.
When to use it
a QA lead wants every new campaign added to a checklist before anyone puts it live.
Watch out
creation is not launch. Use Change Status if you care about the moment a test goes live.
5

Sequential Testing Trigger

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a sequential testing is triggered.”

When AB Tasty flags a sequential testing event on your account, Zapier hears about it, so the people waiting on it don't have to keep checking AB Tasty.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan.
When to use it
a growth team wants a heads-up in its channel so someone reviews the test the same day.
Watch out
the Zap passes on what AB Tasty sends. Reading the result and deciding what to do stays a human job.
6

SRM Trigger

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when SRM is triggered.”

SRM alerts are the kind of news nobody wants to discover a day late. This trigger forwards the alert to Zapier as soon as AB Tasty raises it, so it lands where someone will actually read it.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan.
When to use it
a data analyst wants a ticket opened automatically so the alert is never left in a dashboard.
Watch out
a Zap can't pause the test for you. AB Tasty has no action on Zapier.
When it breaks

When the AB Tasty Zap breaks

Zapier lists no help article and no rate limit specific to AB Tasty. What breaks is the general behaviour of Zapier.

These four cases cover what goes wrong most often with an events-only app like this one. If a Zap still misbehaves after that, the Zapier troubleshooting guide walks through the next checks.

  • Past campaigns never show up

    A Zap only reacts to what happens after you switch it on. Campaigns and learnings that already existed are not picked up, and moving that history is a separate job.
  • A bulk change gets held back

    If a large batch of events arrives at once, after an import or a migration for example, Zapier's flood protection can hold the batch back instead of running everything.
  • The second step stops on a free plan

    The free plan builds two-step Zaps only. Add a filter or a second action behind your AB Tasty trigger and the Zap needs a paid plan to run.
  • The wrong account is watched

    Each trigger listens to the AB Tasty account you picked when building it. Events from any other account in your organization never reach that Zap.

FAQ

AB Tasty Zapier integration: common questions

01Is the AB Tasty Zapier integration free?
Yes, it runs on the free Zapier plan, because AB Tasty is not a premium app. The free plan gives you 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps. The catch is size: each Zap can have one trigger and one action, nothing more. As soon as you want a filter, or want an SRM alert to reach both a chat tool and a ticketing tool, the Zap becomes multi-step and you need a paid plan. Prices change often, so check the current plan table on Zapier before you commit.
02How many tasks does an AB Tasty Zap use?
The AB Tasty trigger uses none. Zapier counts a task only when an action in the other app completes, so a Zap that sends one message per new campaign uses one task per campaign. A Zap with three actions uses three tasks per run. An action that fails is not billed. One thing to watch: a few apps and actions take more than one task when they complete, so look at the step you add after AB Tasty.
03Do AB Tasty triggers work in real time?
Yes. All six AB Tasty triggers are instant: AB Tasty tells Zapier the moment an event happens, and the Zap starts straight away on any plan. The polling interval that applies to many other apps (15 minutes on the free plan) plays no role here. In the editor, a Zap built on an instant trigger shows a lightning bolt, which is a quick way to confirm it before you rely on it for urgent alerts.
04What does it take to connect AB Tasty to Zapier?
You need an AB Tasty account and a Zapier account. The connection starts from the Apps page with + Add connection, then you sign in to AB Tasty and grant access. If you want a Zap to watch campaign data you don't own yourself, your login needs read access to it. Each trigger also asks which AB Tasty account to monitor, so make sure the right one is visible to your login.
05Can a Zap pause an AB Tasty campaign after an SRM alert?
No. AB Tasty offers no action and no search on Zapier, only triggers. A Zap can tell people about an SRM alert the instant it is raised, open a ticket, or log it in a sheet. Stopping or changing the campaign still happens inside AB Tasty, by hand, every single time. If that reverse direction is essential to your workflow, it is worth comparing automation tools before you build anything around it.
06What if the AB Tasty event you need isn't in the list?
Then Zapier can't start a Zap from it today. The six available events cover campaign creation, status changes, learnings created or changed, sequential testing and SRM alerts. Anything outside that list, such as reading test results on demand, isn't offered on Zapier at all. The practical move is to start from the closest event, for example Change Status, and let the next steps do the rest in the other apps you already use.
07Zapier, Make or n8n for AB Tasty?
It depends on the criterion. On Zapier, AB Tasty has a ready-made connection with six instant triggers and works from the free plan, which suits a team that wants alerts flowing out quickly without code. If your criterion is acting on AB Tasty itself, Zapier won't help, since it has no AB Tasty action. Check what each platform offers for AB Tasty against your own need before choosing one of them.
