Overview

What the Lead Identity Check Zapier integration is for

Lead Identity Check tells you how likely it is that a phone number, an email address or a postal address belongs to the name a lead gave you. On Zapier, that check becomes a step: a lead arrives in another app, the Zap sends its details to Lead Identity Check, and the answer is ready for the steps that follow.

Three results you can build around Verify a Lead. A check on every new lead: each entry from your form tool goes through the verification before anyone calls it, so nobody spends time on a number that does not match the name. A sorted pipeline: add a filter after the check and only the leads that pass go on to your CRM, the others stop there; that makes it a multi-step Zap, so a paid plan. A phone list you can trust a little more: the action also looks at whether the phone number has seen recent activity, which tells you if the line still seems to be in use.

What Zapier does not do for this app: there is no trigger, so Lead Identity Check can never start a Zap by itself. Another app always has to bring the lead in first. There is no search either, so a Zap cannot look up a past verification; each run checks again and counts again.

That also means the speed of the whole Zap depends on the trigger you choose in the other app. If you are still weighing tools, the n8n vs Zapier and Make vs Zapier comparisons are a good next read.

Vocabulary

Zapier vocabulary in one minute

Seven words explain any Zap. Here is each one in a single plain line.

Zap
The automation you build on Zapier: one trigger, then one or more actions that run each time the trigger event happens.
Trigger
The event in an app that starts the Zap. Lead Identity Check has none, so another app always plays that role.
Action
What the Zap does once it starts: the step that writes, sends or checks something for you, like Verify a Lead.
Task
The unit Zapier bills. One task is one action your Zap completes successfully, and your plan counts those.
Polling vs instant
A polling trigger is checked by Zapier on a timer. An instant trigger is reported by its app the moment the event happens.
Filter
A step that lets the Zap go on only when what arrived meets the condition you set, and stops it otherwise.
Search step
A step that looks up something already stored in an app so later steps can use it. Lead Identity Check has none.
Cost

What a Lead Identity Check Zap costs

Every successful Verify a Lead counts as one task. The trigger in the other app costs nothing, however often it fires.

  • Lead Identity Check operations1 action, no trigger
  • Free plan100 tasks a month, two-step Zaps
  • Premium appNo

Each action that succeeds counts on its own: verify a lead, then create a contact, and that is two tasks per lead. A failed action is not counted. Lead Identity Check is not a premium app, so it works on the free plan, with 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps, but only two steps per Zap: one trigger, one action. Add a filter or a second action after the check and you have a multi-step Zap, which needs a paid plan. The interval grid below applies to the polling trigger of the other app, if that is what starts your Zap.

Connect

Connect Lead Identity Check to Zapier in three steps

  1. 01

    Open your apps

    Go to the Apps page of your Zapier account and click + Add connection. A connection is your Lead Identity Check account linked once, then reused by every step that verifies a lead.

  2. 02

    Pick Lead Identity Check

    Search for Lead Identity Check in the dialog, select it and click Add connection. A new tab opens on the Lead Identity Check side, where you identify yourself.

  3. 03

    Sign in and grant access

    Sign in to Lead Identity Check in that tab and allow Zapier to use the account. You need an account on the app, plus access to anything in it you do not own yourself and want the Zap to use.

First Zap

Your first Lead Identity Check Zap

GoalVerify each new lead from your form, then pass only the ones that check out to your CRM.

  1. 01

    Start with the form

    Create a new Zap and pick your form tool, with its new-entry event, as the trigger. Test it: Zapier brings back the three most recent entries, so you work on a real one.

  2. 02

    Add Verify a Lead

    Add Lead Identity Check as the next step and choose Verify a Lead. Fill in Filter Name, then map the name, phone, email or address coming from the form.

  3. 03

    Test the check

    Run the test on that step once and read what came back. That answer is what the filter will look at, so make sure you understand it before going on.

  4. 04

    Add the filter

    Add a Filter step from the plus icon and set its three boxes: the field to look at, the rule, and the value to compare with. The Zap is now multi-step.

  5. 05

    Add the CRM and publish

    Add your CRM with its create-contact action, map the fields, test it, then click Publish. Each verified lead costs one task, each contact created another.

Actions

The Lead Identity Check action on Zapier

Lead Identity Check gives you 1 action. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

1

Verify a Lead

Action

In Zapier“Verifies the likelihood that the phone number, address, or email matches the entity name provided and that the phone number has seen recent activity.”

Sends a lead's name with a phone number, address or email to Lead Identity Check, which estimates how likely they belong together and whether the phone has seen recent activity.

When to use it
new leads arrive from a form and you want them checked before anyone picks up the phone.
Watch out
Filter Name is a required field with no official description, so confirm what it expects at the test. Every successful run counts as a task, even on a lead already checked.
When it breaks

When a Lead Identity Check Zap breaks

Zapier links no help article to Lead Identity Check, so these are the general traps that hit a Zap built this way.

They come from how Zapier works, not from Lead Identity Check. When one does, the Zapier troubleshooting page is the next stop.

  • Old leads are never checked

    A Zap only reacts to what happens after it is switched on. Leads collected before you published are not verified; running them through is a separate job.
  • The Zap feeds itself

    If a later step writes into the very place your trigger watches, the Zap sets itself off again and again, verifying the same leads and burning tasks.
  • A big batch gets held back

    When the trigger app suddenly returns a huge batch, after a bulk import or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold it back.
  • The same item does not start it twice

    On a polling trigger, Zapier keeps track of what it has already seen, so one lead does not start the Zap twice. Sending it again by hand is another story: that is a new check.

FAQ

Lead Identity Check Zapier integration: FAQ

01Is the Lead Identity Check Zapier integration free?
Yes, on Zapier's side. Lead Identity Check is not a premium app, so Verify a Lead works on the free plan. That plan gives 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps, but each Zap is capped at two steps, which here means one trigger in another app and the verification. Add a filter or a second action, such as creating a contact, and it becomes a multi-step Zap that needs a paid plan. Your Lead Identity Check account is a separate matter.
02How many tasks does Lead Identity Check use?
One task for each Verify a Lead that completes successfully. The trigger in the other app is free, however often it fires, and a verification that fails is not counted. Every other action in the same Zap counts on its own, so verify plus create contact costs two tasks per lead. Since there is no search to check whether a lead was already verified, sending the same lead twice means paying for two checks.
03Is Lead Identity Check on Zapier real time?
It depends on the trigger that starts your Zap, because Lead Identity Check has none of its own. If the other app offers an instant trigger, it reports each new lead at once and the check runs straight away. If it is a polling trigger, Zapier looks for new items at your plan's interval: 15 minutes on Free, 2 on Professional, 1 on Team or Enterprise. Once the Zap has started, Verify a Lead runs as the next step.
04What does it take to connect Lead Identity Check to Zapier?
An account on Lead Identity Check, plus access to anything in it you do not own yourself and want the Zap to use. In Zapier, open the Apps page, click + Add connection, search for the app, click Add connection, sign in on the tab that opens and grant access. Verify a Lead then asks for one required field, Filter Name, with no official description: confirm what it expects when you test the step. The connection is reused by every Zap that verifies leads.
05Why can Verify a Lead not be tested?
Check the required Filter Name field first: it has to be filled, and Zapier says nothing more about it than its name, so read what the editor asks and look closely at the test result. Then map the name and the phone, email or address you want checked from the earlier step. If the test still returns nothing useful, look at what the trigger actually sent: an empty name or contact detail gives the check nothing to compare.
06What if the Lead Identity Check operation you want is missing?
Then Zapier cannot do it for this app today. The integration is a single action, Verify a Lead, with no trigger and no search. A Zap cannot start from Lead Identity Check, and it cannot fetch a past result. The working pattern is to let another app bring the lead in, verify it, then do the rest in the apps that follow. Anything beyond that would have to come from Lead Identity Check's own integration.
07Zapier, Make or n8n for Lead Identity Check?
Choose by criteria, not by a winner. On Zapier you get a single verification action that works on the free plan when paired with one trigger. If every lead needs a check, a filter and a CRM step, compare what each tool bills per run, and whether it offers Lead Identity Check at all. If hosting the automation yourself matters, that criterion points elsewhere. Weigh it against your lead volume and who maintains the flow.
