Leapon Zapier integrationAutomate Leapon with Zapier.

The Leapon Zapier integration gives you 2 triggers, 0 actions and 0 searches. Leapon only speaks first: when a new client lands in your digital business card account, solo or team, Zapier picks it up and hands it to another app. Here is how, what it costs and where it breaks.

Overview

What the Leapon Zapier integration actually does

Leapon is a relationship assistant built into a digital business card: it helps you keep track of the professional contacts you make. On Zapier, it works in one direction only. Each new client added in Leapon can start an automation, and whatever comes next happens in another app.

Three results you can build from its two triggers. A contact log that keeps itself: with New Client (Individual Use), every client you add as an individual user becomes a row in a spreadsheet, so the list you share or sort lives outside Leapon too. A team pipeline in one place: with New Client (For Teams), every client added from the team account lands in the same destination, whoever on the team met them. A cleaner hand-off: add a filter between the trigger and the next app, and only the clients that match the condition you set move on (a filter needs a paid plan, more on that below).

What Zapier does not do for Leapon is just as important. There is no action, so no Zap can create, update or tag a client inside Leapon: data only leaves, it never comes back in. There is no search either, so a Zap cannot look up an existing Leapon client mid-run. And both triggers work by polling, which means a short wait between the moment a client is added and the moment Zapier sees it.

So think of Leapon on Zapier as an outbox. If the goal is a two-way sync with another tool, the editor will not offer it; the n8n vs Zapier comparison is a sensible next read before you try to force it.

Vocabulary

Zapier vocabulary in one minute

Seven words do most of the work on this page. Here they are, once, in plain English.

Zap
The automation you build on Zapier: one trigger, then one or more actions that run every time the trigger event happens.
Trigger
The event in an app that starts the Zap; once the Zap is on, Zapier waits for it. Leapon offers two, both about new clients.
Action
What the Zap does once it has started: the step that writes, sends or moves something for you. With Leapon, it lives in another app.
Task
The unit Zapier bills: one action your Zap completes successfully. The number on your plan is a count of those.
Polling trigger
A trigger Zapier checks on a timer: it asks the app for new items at a fixed interval and keeps only what it has not seen yet.
Instant trigger
A trigger the app reports itself, the moment the event happens. Leapon has none: both of its triggers are polling ones.
Filter
A step that lets the Zap go on only when what arrived meets the condition you set, and stops it otherwise.
Cost

What a Leapon Zap really costs

Leapon is not a premium app, so it runs on the free plan. Usage is counted in tasks, and Leapon itself never produces one.

  • Free plan100 tasks per month, unlimited Zaps
  • Premium appNo, Leapon works on the free plan
  • Leapon triggers2, both polling, never billed
  • Costs a taskEach successful action in the other app

Both Leapon triggers are free: the trigger never costs a task, and neither do the checks Zapier runs to spot new clients. What you pay for is the action in the other app, one task each time it succeeds; a failed action is not counted. On the free plan, Zapier checks for new clients every 15 minutes, and the Zap is limited to two steps, one trigger and one action. Add a filter or a second action and it becomes a multi-step Zap that needs a paid plan.

Connect

Connect your Leapon account in three steps

  1. 01

    Find Leapon in your connections

    In your Zapier account, open Apps and click + Add connection. In the dialog, search for Leapon and select it. This happens once; every Leapon Zap afterwards reuses the same connection.

  2. 02

    Sign in on the Leapon side

    Click Add connection. A Leapon tab opens: sign in with the account whose clients you want to send. For the team trigger, it also needs read access to the team clients it did not add itself.

  3. 03

    Allow access and confirm

    Grant Zapier access to the account when Leapon asks. Back in Zapier, the connection now shows in your list, ready to be picked in the account menu of any Leapon trigger.

First Zap

Your first Zap: log every new Leapon client in a spreadsheet

GoalEach client you add in Leapon becomes a new row in your spreadsheet, but only when it matches the condition you set.

  1. 01

    Pick the Leapon trigger

    Start a new Zap from your Zapier account. Choose Leapon as the app and New Client (Individual Use) as the event, then select your Leapon connection.

  2. 02

    Test with real clients

    Run the test. Zapier brings back the three most recent clients of the connected account, so you can map the next steps on a real one rather than placeholders.

  3. 03

    Set the filter

    Click the plus icon, choose Filter, and fill its three boxes: the field to look at, the rule, the value to compare with. This step makes the Zap multi-step, so it needs a paid plan.

  4. 04

    Add the spreadsheet row

    Add an action in your spreadsheet app, pick the event that adds a row, and map the client details from the Leapon trigger into the matching columns.

  5. 05

    Test and publish

    Test the action, check the new row, then click Publish. From now on, Zapier checks Leapon at your plan's interval and logs each new client it finds.

Triggers

The Leapon triggers

2 events start a Zap when something happens in Leapon. Zapier checks for them at the interval your plan allows.

1

New Client (Individual Use)

Polling trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a new client added by an individual user.”

Starts your Zap each time an individual user adds a client in Leapon. The client details then flow into whatever step you put next, a sheet, a CRM or a message.

How it fires
Zapier goes and looks at regular intervals, and how often depends on your plan: every 15 minutes on the free one
When to use it
you work solo with Leapon and want each new contact copied to the tool where you actually follow up.
Watch out
clients added by a team account are not covered here; they belong to the other trigger.
2

New Client (For Teams)

Polling trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a new team client is added from a team account.”

Fires on clients added from a Leapon team account, so the whole team's new contacts feed one Zap instead of one Zap per person. Each run carries the client that was just added, ready to be passed on.

How it fires
Zapier goes and looks at regular intervals, and how often depends on your plan: every 15 minutes on the free one
When to use it
several people hand out Leapon cards and you want every client they collect in a single shared destination.
Watch out
it only covers clients added from a team account, and the connected account needs read access to the ones it did not add itself.
When it breaks

When a Leapon Zap breaks

Zapier publishes no help article and no rate limit specific to Leapon. The failures are the ones every Zap meets, shaped by the fact that Leapon only sends data out.

Four cases come up most. You rarely see them while building; they show once the Zap runs on real clients. When a run fails and the reason is unclear, our Zapier troubleshooting page is the place to start.

  • Existing clients never arrive

    A Zap only reacts to what happens after it is switched on. The clients already stored in Leapon stay where they are; exporting that backlog is a separate job.
  • A new client shows up late

    Both triggers are polling ones. On the free plan Zapier checks every 15 minutes, so a client can take up to one interval to reach the next app.
  • A big import gets held back

    If Leapon suddenly returns a huge batch of clients, after an import or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold them back instead of running the Zap for each one.
  • The same client does not run twice

    Zapier remembers what it has already seen on a polling trigger. A client that was processed once will not start the Zap again, so the next app never gets it twice.

FAQ

Leapon Zapier integration: frequent questions

01Is the Leapon Zapier integration free?
Yes, on Zapier's side. Leapon is not a premium app, so both of its triggers work on the free plan, which includes 100 tasks per month and unlimited Zaps. The free plan builds two-step Zaps only: one Leapon trigger, then one action in another app. Add a filter to keep only some clients, or a second action, and the Zap turns multi-step, which requires a paid plan. You also need a Leapon account to connect.
02How many tasks does a Leapon Zap use?
Leapon itself uses none. Its triggers are free, and so are the regular checks Zapier runs to find new clients, however often they happen. Tasks come from the actions that follow: each successful action in the other app counts as one, and an action that fails is not counted. A Zap that logs every new client in a spreadsheet therefore costs one task per client. With a filter in front, the clients it stops cost nothing.
03Is Leapon real time with Zapier?
No. Both Leapon triggers are polling triggers: Zapier goes to Leapon at a fixed interval and asks for new clients. The interval depends on the plan: every 15 minutes on Free, every 2 minutes on Professional, every minute on Team and Enterprise. On paid plans the check frequency can be changed, and a check can be run by hand from the editor. The type is set on Leapon's side and cannot be switched from the editor.
04What does connecting Leapon to Zapier require?
A Leapon account, and access to the clients you want the Zap to read. The connection is made once: Apps page of your Zapier account, + Add connection, search for Leapon, sign in in the tab that opens, then grant access. For the team trigger, the account also needs read access to the team clients it does not own. After that, every Leapon trigger can pick the connection from its account menu. Nothing else is asked on the Zapier side.
05Why does New Client (For Teams) return nothing?
Usually because the clients you expect were not added from a team account. New Client (For Teams) only covers clients added from a team account, while New Client (Individual Use) covers clients added by an individual user. Second suspect: access. The connected account needs read access to the team clients it did not add itself. Last, a Zap never picks up clients added before it was switched on, so an empty test can simply mean no new team client yet. Pick the trigger that matches how your clients are actually added.
06What if the Leapon operation you are after is not in Zapier?
Then it is not available on Zapier for now. Leapon offers two triggers about new clients and nothing else: no action to create or update a client in Leapon, no search to find one, no trigger for other events. Asking Leapon whether it plans to extend its Zapier app is the cleanest route. Meanwhile, anything beyond sending new clients out stays inside Leapon, or goes through another automation tool if Leapon exposes it there.
07Zapier, Make or n8n for Leapon?
It depends on the criterion, not on a ranking. To send each new Leapon client to another tool, Zapier does it with a trigger, one action and the free plan, at the cost of a polling delay. If you need to write back into Leapon, Zapier has no action for it, so check what each tool exposes for Leapon first. Then weigh how each one bills a run against the number of clients you add, since Zapier counts one task per successful action.
