What the Datagma Zapier integration is for
Datagma is a data service that fills in the gaps on people and companies. On Zapier it only exposes searches: steps that look up information and hand it to the next step. You bring a name, a company, an email or a LinkedIn URL; Datagma brings back what it knows.
Three typical results. A verified work email for a prospect you only know by name and company, with Find Email Address. A list of people holding a given job title at a target company, with Find Employees, when an outbound campaign needs names. A heads-up that a customer contact has moved on, with Detect a Job Change, which returns the new company and the new title.
The broadest of the five is Enrich Person or Company: give it an email or a LinkedIn profile and it describes the person and their company; give it a company name, a domain or a SIREN number and it describes the company alone.
What Zapier does not do for Datagma: start a Zap or save the result somewhere. There is no trigger and no action, only searches. Whatever Datagma finds has to be written by another app's action. And because a search turns any Zap into a multi-step Zap, Datagma on Zapier means a paid plan.
The same app also has a Datagma Make integration page, if you want to compare how both platforms handle it.
Zapier vocabulary in one minute
Seven terms carry the rest of this page.
- Zap
- The automation you build on Zapier: one trigger, then one or more steps that run every time the trigger event happens.
- Trigger
- The event in an app that starts the Zap. Zapier waits for it once the Zap is on. Datagma has none, so it comes from your CRM or form tool.
- Action
- The step that writes, sends or moves something for you. Datagma has no action, so writing its results is another app's job.
- Search step
- A step that looks up something that already exists and passes what it found to the next steps. All five Datagma operations are searches.
- Task
- The unit Zapier bills: one action your Zap completes successfully. Your plan allowance is counted in tasks.
- Polling vs instant
- A polling trigger is checked by Zapier on a timer; an instant trigger is pushed by the app as soon as the event happens. It depends on your starting app.
- Multi-step Zap
- Any Zap beyond one trigger and one action. A search, a filter or a second action makes one, and it requires a paid plan.
What a Datagma Zap costs on Zapier
Datagma is not a premium app. But since its only operations are searches, every Datagma Zap is multi-step, and multi-step Zaps need a paid Zapier plan.
- Free plan100 tasks per month, two steps maximum
- Datagma ZapAlways multi-step, paid plan
- Trigger and checksNever billed
- Premium appNo
The trigger never costs a task, and Zapier checking for new data is free too. What the plan bills is each action that succeeds, so the CRM update that writes the Datagma result counts as one task per run; a failed action is not counted. The free plan, with its 100 tasks a month, stops at a trigger plus one action: fine for testing, not for Datagma. Size a paid plan on the number of actions that follow the search, multiplied by the contacts you expect each month.
Connect Datagma to Zapier in 3 steps
- 01
Go to the Apps page
Have a Datagma account ready. In Zapier, open Apps and click + Add connection. A connection is your Datagma account linked once, then reused by every Datagma step in every Zap.
- 02
Pick Datagma
Search for Datagma in the dialog, select it and click Add connection. Zapier then opens a new tab where you sign in to your Datagma account to continue.
- 03
Allow access
Sign in and grant Zapier access to the account. If the records you want to enrich belong to a teammate's workspace in the starting app, check you can read them there too.
Your first Zap: work emails for new CRM contacts
GoalWhen a contact lands in your CRM with a name and a company but no email, find the verified work email and write it back on the contact.
- 01
Build: set the trigger
Click Build and pick your CRM with its new contact event. Click Test: Zapier pulls the three most recent contacts so you work on a real record.
- 02
Check the test contact
Open the test record and confirm it carries a full name and a company or domain. Those two values are the only inputs Find Email Address works from.
- 03
Add Find Email Address
Choose Datagma, then Find Email Address under SEARCH in the Action event list. Map the full name and the company or domain from the trigger.
- 04
Write the result back
Add your CRM's update step, point it at the same contact and drop the email Datagma found into the email field. This is the step that costs a task.
- 05
Test and publish
Test each step and read what came back. When the email lands on the test contact, click Publish. With a search inside, this Zap needs a paid plan.
The 5 Datagma searches
5 search steps look for data that already exists in Datagma, so a later step can use it.
A search is listed at the bottom of the action-event menu, under SEARCH. Some action fields also show a + Add search step button that inserts one just before the step and wires the result in for you. Three settings decide what happens when the search does not return a single clean match.
Detect a Job Change
SearchIn Zapier“Detect a job change, and give you in response the new company and job title of your prospect”
Tells you whether someone has left the company you have on file, and if so returns their new employer and job title.
Find Email Address
SearchIn Zapier“Finds a work verified Email address”
Looks for a verified work email from a full name and a domain or company name. This is the classic gap-filler for leads that came in without an address.
Find Employees
SearchIn Zapier“List employees with a specific job title in a company”
Lists people at a company who hold a given job title. You can name the company or paste its LinkedIn company page URL.
Enrich Person or Company
SearchIn Zapier“Enrich an email address, a LinkedIn profile, to get info about the person and his company or send a company name, domain, or SIREN number to get only company info.”
The widest lookup. An email or a LinkedIn profile returns details on the person and their company; a company name, website or SIREN number returns the company only.
Find Mobile Phone Number
SearchIn Zapier“Finds a mobile phone number”
Returns a mobile number for the person you describe. It is the step to add when a sales call matters more than an email.
The three settings every search exposes
- Successful if no search results are found?Left as is, a search that finds nothing stops the Zap and skips the steps that depended on it. Switch it on and the Zap carries on without the value.
- Create X if it doesn't exist yet?This box only appears on apps with a find-or-create variant. Datagma has none: its searches look up data, they never create anything.
- If multiple search results are found?Three ways out: keep the first match, which is the default, stop the Zap, or pass every match on at once.
When a Datagma Zap breaks
Zapier links no help article and no documented limit to Datagma. The breakdowns come from the searches themselves and from how every Zap works.
Four cases to keep in mind. For a run that fails without an obvious reason, see our Zapier troubleshooting page.
The search finds nothing and the Zap stops
By default an empty search halts the run and skips the update step. If that is not what you want, switch on the setting that lets the Zap carry on.Old contacts are never enriched
A Zap only reacts to what happens after it is published. Contacts already in your CRM are left untouched; enriching the backlog is a separate job.The update sets the Zap off again
If your trigger watches updated contacts, writing the Datagma result back starts the Zap again, in a loop, and eats tasks. Trigger on new contacts.A big import gets held back
When the starting app suddenly returns a huge batch, after a bulk import or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold those runs back.
