Overview

What the Mylance Zapier integration does for your pipeline

Mylance is a lead generation tool built for fractional businesses. On Zapier it works in one direction only: when you export a contact or a company from Mylance, Zapier receives it and your Zap passes it on to the tool where you actually work those prospects, such as your CRM, a spreadsheet or your team chat.

Contacts that reach your CRM without a CSV. Contact Exported hands each exported person to the next step of your Zap, so your CRM gets the record without a download and an upload in between. You decide what leaves Mylance by deciding what to export.

A company list that keeps itself. Lead Exported fires when a company is exported. Pointed at a spreadsheet, it builds the list of accounts you are targeting, one row per export, with the fields Mylance sends filled in.

A team that knows who is new. Either trigger can post in your team chat, so your team sees the new prospect without asking.

What Zapier does not do here: Mylance has no action and no search on Zapier. A Zap cannot create, update or look up anything inside Mylance; it can only react to your exports and carry them elsewhere. Exports made before the Zap is switched on are not sent either.

Vocabulary

Zapier words, in one minute

Seven terms come back on 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 your Zap. Once the Zap is switched on, Zapier waits for that event and nothing else.
Action
What the Zap does once it has started: the step that writes, sends or creates something for you in an app.
Task
The unit Zapier bills you for: one action your Zap completes successfully. Your plan allowance is a count of those.
Instant vs polling
An instant trigger is reported by the app itself the moment the event happens. A polling trigger is checked by Zapier on a timer.
Filter
A step that lets the Zap carry on only when what arrived meets the condition you set, and stops it otherwise.
Connection
Your Mylance account linked to Zapier once, then reused by every Zap that starts from a Mylance export.
Cost

What a Mylance Zap really costs

Mylance is not a premium app, so it works from the free plan. You pay in tasks, and only completed actions count, which here means actions in your other apps.

  • Mylance triggerFree, never counted
  • Each successful action1 task
  • Free plan100 tasks a month, unlimited two-step Zaps
  • Filter or second actionMulti-step Zap, paid plan

The Mylance trigger never costs a task, however many contacts you export. Each action that goes through in the next app is one task: a Zap that adds a CRM contact and posts in chat uses two per export. A failed action is not counted. The free plan gives you 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps, each limited to two steps: one trigger, one action. A second action or a filter makes it a multi-step Zap, which needs a paid plan.

The grid below is how often Zapier checks a polling trigger on each plan. Both Mylance triggers are instant, so it does not apply to them.

Connect

Connect your Mylance account to Zapier

  1. 01

    Open Apps and add a connection

    In your Zapier account, open the Apps page and click + Add connection. You need a Mylance account, plus read or write access on anything you do not own yourself and want the Zap to touch.

  2. 02

    Find Mylance and confirm

    Type Mylance in the search box of the dialog, pick it from the results, then click Add connection. A new browser tab opens on the Mylance side, where the setup finishes.

  3. 03

    Sign in and grant access

    Sign in to Mylance in that tab and grant Zapier access to the account. Every Zap that starts from a Mylance export, now or later, reuses that single connection.

First Zap

Your first Mylance Zap: exported contacts into your CRM

GoalEach time you export a contact from Mylance, create it in your CRM and tell the team in chat who has just been added.

  1. 01

    Create the Zap and pick the trigger

    Create a new Zap, choose Mylance as the app and Contact Exported as the event, then select the Mylance connection you added earlier.

  2. 02

    Test the trigger

    Run the test: Zapier brings back the three most recent items from your Mylance account, so you map fields from a real exported contact, not a blank sample.

  3. 03

    Add the CRM contact

    Add an action with your CRM and its create contact event. Put each field from the Mylance step in the CRM field that matches it.

  4. 04

    Add the chat message

    Add a second action for your team chat. That makes it a multi-step Zap, which needs a paid plan. On the free plan, keep only the CRM step.

  5. 05

    Test each step, then publish

    Run each action once and check the new CRM record and the chat message. When both look right, click Publish to switch the Zap on.

Triggers

Mylance triggers: two exports, both instant

2 events start a Zap when something happens in Mylance, and 2 of them are instant: the app calls Zapier straight away, whatever your plan.

1

Contact Exported

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a contact is exported from Mylance.”

Starts your Zap each time you export a contact, meaning a person, from Mylance. Your export becomes the signal, so nothing leaves Mylance unless you decide it should.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan.
When to use it
create the person in your CRM, or add them to the email tool you use for outreach, without a file in between.
Watch out
run the test to see which fields an exported contact brings back before mapping them into another tool.
2

Lead Exported

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a company is exported from Mylance.”

Fires when you export a company from Mylance. Despite the name, what comes through is an organisation, not a person, so it pairs with company records rather than contacts.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan.
When to use it
add each exported company to the spreadsheet or CRM list of accounts you are working.
Watch out
companies exported before the Zap was switched on are not sent; only the next exports count.
When it breaks

When a Mylance Zap breaks

Zapier attaches no help article to Mylance and lists no limit of its own for it. What can go wrong comes from how Zaps work in general, and from the one-way nature of this integration.

  • Earlier exports never arrive

    A Zap only reacts to what happens after it is switched on. Contacts and companies exported before that stay where they are; sending them is a separate job.
  • A big batch held back

    If a trigger suddenly sends a huge batch, after a bulk import or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold those runs back.
  • Nothing goes back into Mylance

    Mylance has no action on Zapier. A Zap can carry exports out, but it cannot update, tag or create anything inside Mylance.

FAQ

Mylance Zapier integration: your questions

01Is the Mylance Zapier integration free?
Yes, it works on the free plan, because Zapier does not class Mylance as a premium app. The free plan gives you 100 tasks a month and an unlimited number of Zaps, each limited to two steps: one trigger and one action. So an exported company that becomes a spreadsheet row fits. The same Zap that also posts in chat has a second action, which makes it a multi-step Zap and puts it on a paid plan.
02How many tasks does a Mylance Zap use?
One per action that completes in your other apps, and nothing for the Mylance trigger. Since Mylance has no action of its own on Zapier, every task you spend is on the tools that receive your exports. Export ten contacts into a Zap with one CRM step and you use ten tasks; add a chat message and it is twenty. An action that fails is not counted against your plan. Check the test result before you publish.
03Does Mylance trigger Zaps in real time?
Yes. Both Mylance triggers are instant: Mylance tells Zapier the moment you export a contact or a company, so the Zap starts right away on any plan, free included. The interval grid that decides how often Zapier checks an app applies only to polling triggers, and Mylance has none. In the editor, a Zap built on an instant trigger shows a lightning bolt. So on speed, a paid plan adds nothing for Mylance.
04What does it take to connect Mylance to Zapier?
A Mylance account, plus read or write access on anything you do not own yourself and want the Zap to touch. Then open Apps in Zapier, click + Add connection, search for Mylance, click Add connection, sign in to Mylance in the new tab and grant Zapier access. You do it once, and every Zap that starts from a Mylance export reuses that connection. Publish the Zap before your next export, so it catches it.
05What is the difference between Contact Exported and Lead Exported?
Contact Exported fires when you export a person from Mylance. Lead Exported fires when you export a company, despite its name. Mixing them up puts company names in a people list, or people where you expected accounts. Pick the trigger that matches the record type in the destination tool, then run the test to see which fields each one brings back before you map anything. Both are instant, so the choice is about content, not speed.
06What if the Mylance operation you want is not available?
Then the Zap cannot do it directly. Mylance currently offers two triggers on Zapier, both based on exports, and no action or search: nothing can be written into Mylance or looked up there from a Zap. The Mylance page on zapier.com shows the current list of operations, so check it before planning a workaround. For now, the integration is a way to move what you export out of Mylance, not to manage it.
07Zapier, Make or n8n for Mylance?
Choose on criteria, not on a ranking. Coverage first: on Zapier, Mylance only sends exports out, so check that a one-way flow is what you need. Then steps: a Zap beyond one trigger and one action needs a paid Zapier plan, so sending each export to two tools changes the budget. Then upkeep: pick the tool your team already knows and can fix without help when a destination field changes.
