What the NeetoKB Zapier integration is for
It links your NeetoKB knowledge base to Zapier so that publishing an article can start a Zap: an automation that runs on its own once you switch it on. NeetoKB gives the signal, and your other tools do something with it. The flow goes one way; nothing is written back into NeetoKB.
Three results you can build from that one event. An announcement in your team chat: New Published Article posts a message in the channel you pick, so everyone sees a fresh article without checking the knowledge base. A running list of what went live: the same trigger adds a row to a spreadsheet for each publication, which gives you a simple record of your knowledge base over time. A ready-to-send heads-up: it can also prepare a message in your email tool, so telling readers about a new article no longer depends on someone remembering.
What Zapier does not do with NeetoKB: write into it. The app has no action and no search on Zapier. A Zap will never create an article, edit one, unpublish one or look up an existing page in NeetoKB. Publishing itself still happens in NeetoKB, by hand. The Zap only takes over once the article is live.

Zapier vocabulary, the short version
Eight terms you will see in the editor, in plain words.
- Zap
- Your automation on Zapier: one trigger, then one or more actions that run every time that trigger event happens.
- Trigger
- The event in an app that starts the Zap. With NeetoKB there is only one: an article gets published.
- Action
- What the Zap does once it has started: the step that writes, sends or moves something for you in another tool.
- Task
- What Zapier bills: one action that your Zap completes successfully. The number on your plan counts these.
- Instant trigger
- A trigger the app reports itself: it calls Zapier the moment the event happens. The NeetoKB trigger works this way.
- Polling trigger
- A trigger Zapier checks on a timer, asking the app for new items at a fixed interval. NeetoKB has none.
- Filter
- A step that lets the Zap go on only when what arrived meets your condition, and stops it there otherwise.
- Multi-step Zap
- Any Zap beyond one trigger and one action. A filter or a second action makes it one, and it then needs a paid plan.
What NeetoKB costs you on Zapier
NeetoKB is not a premium app, so it runs on the free plan. Its trigger never costs a task. Each action that succeeds counts as one; an action that fails is not counted.
- Premium appNo, works on the free plan
- Free plan100 tasks a month, two-step Zaps
- TriggerCosts no task
- Failed actionNot counted
The free plan gives you 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps, each one limited to two steps. A filter or a second action makes the Zap multi-step, and that needs a paid plan. A Zap that announces each article in chat and logs it in a spreadsheet spends two tasks per article, so count your actions before you build. The grid below shows the polling interval per plan; it does not apply to NeetoKB, whose only trigger is instant.
Connect NeetoKB to Zapier in three steps
- 01
Start from the Apps page
In your Zapier account, open the Apps page and click + Add connection. A connection is your NeetoKB account linked to Zapier once, then reused by every step that needs NeetoKB.
- 02
Find NeetoKB
Search for NeetoKB by name in the dialog, pick it, then click Add connection. A new tab opens for the sign-in, so keep your NeetoKB login details close by.
- 03
Sign in and allow access
Sign in to NeetoKB in that tab and grant Zapier access to the account. You need an account on the app, plus read or write access on anything you do not own yourself and want the Zap to touch.
Your first Zap: a chat message for the articles that matter
GoalPost a message in your team chat when a NeetoKB article is published and meets a condition you choose.
- 01
Set the trigger
Create a Zap, choose NeetoKB as the app that starts it and New Published Article as the event, then select the connection you made above.
- 02
Test on real articles
Run the test. Zapier brings back the three most recent articles of the connected account, so you map the next steps on a real one and see exactly what it carries.
- 03
Add the filter
Click the plus icon, add a Filter and fill its three boxes: the field to look at, the rule, the value to compare with. A filter needs a paid plan.
- 04
Write the chat message
Add your chat tool as the action, pick the channel and write the message, slotting in the article details you saw during the test where they belong.
- 05
Test, then publish
Test the action once and read what came back. When it looks right, click Publish: the Zap is on and waits for the next article.
NeetoKB trigger
1 event starts a Zap when something happens in NeetoKB, and one of them is instant: the app calls Zapier straight away, whatever your plan.
New Published Article
Instant triggerIn Zapier“Triggers when a new article is published.”
Publishing an article in NeetoKB starts the Zap once, and the test shows what arrives with it, so the rest of your tools hear about it without anyone copying a link around.
When a NeetoKB Zap does not do what you expect
Zapier attaches no help article and no rate limit of its own to NeetoKB. What applies are the general limits every Zap lives with.
Four cases worth knowing before you count on this trigger. If a Zap stops behaving, see our Zapier troubleshooting guide.
Articles already live are skipped
A Zap only reacts to what happens after it is switched on. Articles published before that never reach it; moving that history is a separate job.A mass import can be held back
When a trigger suddenly returns a huge batch, after a bulk import or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold it back. Keep it in mind before importing many articles.Content you do not own
The connection needs an account on NeetoKB, plus read or write access on anything you do not own yourself and want the Zap to touch.One more step means a paid plan
The free plan builds Zaps of one trigger and one action. A filter, a second action or a search makes the Zap multi-step, which needs a paid plan.
