Overview

What the MyRouteOnline Zapier integration does for your deliveries

Last Mile Delivery Planner by MyRouteOnline plans routes for local deliveries, then helps drivers navigate and track them. Its Zapier integration feeds that planner from your other tools, without code: orders, bookings or spreadsheet rows turn into stops, and Zapier fetches the link to the optimized route.

Three results cover what the integration can do. First, a stop list that fills itself: each new order in your shop or each row of a delivery sheet runs Add Address, with a title and the full address or coordinates. Second, a route link ready to share: Get Optimization Url returns the planner URL for the addresses loaded so far, which another step can send to a driver by email or chat. Third, a clean start for each new round: Clear Addresses List empties the uploaded list so old stops do not end up on the next route.

Now the limits. The app has no trigger, so nothing in the planner can start a Zap; every Zap begins in another app. It has no search either, and no action to edit or remove a single address: the only way to fix the list is to clear it whole with Clear Addresses List and reload it from the source app.

Vocabulary

Zapier words in one minute

Seven words come back throughout this page. Here they are once, in plain English.

Zap
The automation you build in Zapier: one trigger, then one or more actions that run each time that trigger event happens.
Trigger
The event in an app that starts the Zap. With this planner, the trigger always comes from another app, such as your shop.
Action
What the Zap does after it starts: the step that writes, sends or moves something in an app for you.
Task
The unit Zapier bills. One task is one action your Zap completes successfully; your plan counts those and nothing else.
Polling vs instant
A polling trigger is checked by Zapier on a timer set by your plan. An instant trigger is pushed by its app the moment it happens.
Filter
A step that lets the Zap continue only when incoming data meets your condition, for example an address that is not empty.
Connection
Your planner account linked to Zapier once, then reused by every step that writes to it or reads from it.
Cost

What a delivery-planning Zap really costs

The planner is not a premium app, so it works on the Free plan. Zapier bills tasks, and only actions that succeed count.

  • Free plan100 tasks per month, unlimited Zaps
  • Zap size on FreeTwo steps: one trigger, one action
  • Planner triggersNone, start from another app
  • Premium appNo

The trigger from your other app never costs a task. Each successful action counts once, so loading one stop costs one task, and a Zap that adds the stop and then fetches the route link costs two. Failed actions are free. The Free plan only builds two-step Zaps: a filter or a second action needs a paid plan. And since the trigger lives in another app, its speed depends on that app: a polling trigger waits for the interval of your plan.

Connect

Connect your planner account in three steps

  1. 01

    Open the Apps page

    In your Zapier account, open Apps and click + Add connection. A connection is your planner account linked to Zapier once, then reused by every step that touches it.

  2. 02

    Pick the planner in the dialog

    Type Last Mile Delivery Planner in the dialog's search box, select it and click Add connection. A new tab opens on the planner's sign-in page. Use the account that holds the address list your drivers work from.

  3. 03

    Sign in and grant access

    Log in to the planner in that tab and allow Zapier into the account. The Zap then writes to that account's address list, so a teammate's list stays out of reach unless you share access.

First Zap

Your first Zap: turn delivery rows into route stops

GoalEach delivery added to your shared spreadsheet becomes a stop in the planner, ready for the next route.

  1. 01

    Create the Zap

    Start a new Zap. It reads top to bottom: the app and event that start it, then the steps that follow, with fields mapped between them.

  2. 02

    Set the trigger in your sheet

    The planner has no trigger, so the Zap starts in your spreadsheet app. Pick the sheet that holds the deliveries and test it to pull in a recent row.

  3. 03

    Add the filter

    Click the plus icon, add Filter and set the condition a row must meet, such as having an address. The filter makes the Zap multi-step, so it needs a paid plan.

  4. 04

    Add the planner action

    Choose Add Address. Map the customer name to the title, and the full address, or the coordinates, to the address field.

  5. 05

    Test and publish

    Run each step once and check that the stop appears in the planner. Then click Publish to switch the Zap on for every new row.

Actions

Planner actions: what the Zap writes

Last Mile Delivery Planner by MyRouteOnline gives you 3 actions. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

1

Add Address

Action

In Zapier“Add an address to my input addresses list”

Puts one more stop on your input address list, with a title and the address written out in full or as coordinates.

When to use it
every paid order, booked pickup or new delivery row should become a stop without anyone retyping it.
Watch out
each stop is one task, so a busy day of orders adds up quickly on the Free plan's monthly count.
2

Clear Addresses List

Action

In Zapier“Clears the uploaded addresses list”

Wipes the uploaded address list so the planner starts again from an empty set of stops.

When to use it
once the current routes are done, before the next batch of deliveries starts arriving.
Watch out
it removes every address, not just old ones, so run it before loading new stops, never after.
3

Get Optimization Url

Action

In Zapier“Get the route planner url for my added addresses list”

Hands back the planner link built from the addresses you have loaded, so a later step can send it on.

When to use it
emailing or messaging the route link to a driver once all the stops are in.
Watch out
the step has one extra setting, Return Route, a true or false choice that Zapier does not explain further; test both values on a sample list before relying on it.
When it breaks

When a delivery-planning Zap breaks

Zapier attaches no help article to this planner and lists no app-specific rate limit. What goes wrong comes from the way the address list works and from Zapier's general rules.

  • Yesterday's stops are still on the route

    Add Address only adds. Until Clear Addresses List runs, earlier stops stay in the list and end up in the next route link.

  • Orders placed before the Zap are missing

    A Zap only reacts to what happens after it is switched on. Earlier orders or rows are never picked up; loading them is a separate job.

  • A bulk import was held back

    When the trigger app suddenly returns a huge batch, after an import or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold the runs back.

  • The task count ran out mid-month

    Every stop added is one successful action, so one task. A high-volume day can drain the 100 monthly tasks of the Free plan fast.

FAQ

Delivery planner and Zapier: common questions

01Is the MyRouteOnline Zapier integration free?
Yes, within the Free plan limits. The planner is not a premium app, so it works on Free, which offers 100 tasks per month and unlimited Zaps. The constraint is size: a Free Zap holds one trigger and one action. A Zap that sends each new order to Add Address fits. Adding a filter on empty addresses, or chaining Get Optimization Url after it, makes the Zap multi-step and requires a paid plan.
02How many tasks does a delivery-planning Zap use?
One task per successful action, and nothing for the trigger. Loading one stop with Add Address costs one task. A Zap that adds the stop and then fetches the route link costs two per run. Each run of Clear Addresses List costs one more. Failed actions are not counted. Since each delivery is a run, the monthly volume follows your order volume, which matters on the 100 tasks of the Free plan.
03Is the planner integration real time?
It depends on the app that starts the Zap, because the planner has no trigger of its own. If your shop or form tool reports orders instantly, the stop reaches the planner right away. If its trigger polls, Zapier checks on a timer: every 15 minutes on Free, every 2 minutes on Professional, every minute on Team and Enterprise. The planner actions themselves run as soon as the Zap reaches them.
04What does connecting the planner to Zapier require?
An account on the planner, plus access to any address list you do not own but want the Zap to fill. The connection takes three moves: add it from the Apps page in Zapier, sign in to the planner in the tab that opens, and grant access. After that, every step of every Zap reuses the same connection. Each stop then needs a title and an address, mapped from the app that starts the Zap.
05Why do old stops show up in the new route?
Because Add Address only adds to the list and nothing removes stops automatically. The route link from Get Optimization Url covers everything currently loaded, including yesterday's deliveries. The fix is Clear Addresses List, run at the start of each planning cycle before new stops come in. There is no action to remove a single address, so a single wrong stop also means clearing the whole list and loading it again.
06What if the planner operation you need is missing?
Work around it with the three actions and another app. There is no trigger, so a finished route cannot start a Zap, and no search or edit action. Start from the app where the order lives, add the stops, then fetch the route link and send it with an email or chat step. For corrections, clear the list and reload it. Anything beyond that falls outside what Zapier offers for this planner.
07Zapier, Make or n8n for the delivery planner?
Judge it on criteria rather than a ranking. Coverage: Zapier offers three actions and no trigger, which covers loading stops and sharing a route link. Cost model: Zapier bills one task per stop added, so volume tracks your order count. Flexibility: if you need to edit single stops or react to finished routes, check what the other platforms expose for this planner before choosing. Compare those points against your daily delivery volume.
