Two clean triggersNew Call Record and New Message: every answered call and every message taken can start a Zap the moment it happens.
8,000+ destinationsIf the app is on Zapier, your call data can reach it: the niche CRM, the internal tool, the spreadsheet only your ops person understands.
Yours to tinker withSelf-serve by design. You build the Zaps, you own the logic, and you can change them at 11 PM without asking anyone.

Here's how we think about it: every integration in our catalog is native. During onboarding we connect your CRM, your calendar, your team chat: built for you, at no charge, no Zap required. You should never have to automate your way to the basics.
Zapier is the long tail. The app we haven't met yet, the internal tool nobody else runs, the automation only you would think of. Abby shows up there as a trigger app, one-way and outbound, sending call data out into whatever you build. Zapier never reaches into Abby.
Two Triggers, Eight Thousand Doors
The mechanics are deliberately simple. New Call Record fires after each call your receptionists answer; New Message fires when a message is taken. Pick one, add filters (only new callers, only after hours, only when the reason mentions a keyword) and map the fields into any action app Zapier supports.
A contractor pipes call records into job-costing software and pings the crew chat when a caller says "emergency." A clinic appends every message to a compliance log it controls. Same two triggers, thousands of different businesses' logic on top.
Inside The New Call Record Trigger
1Caller identityName and phone number as your receptionist captured them, with a new-versus-known caller flag to filter on.
2Reason for callingThe caller's need in one plain sentence, the field most Zaps filter and route on.
3Summary & outcomeWhat was discussed and how it ended: resolved, message taken, transferred, or appointment booked.
4Follow-up detailsThe promise made and the callback number, ready to map into a task, a CRM field, or a text to yourself.
5TimestampsWhen the call came in and how long it ran, for logs, dashboards, and after-hours filters.

How It Works
1Connect Abby to your Zapier account and pick a trigger: New Call Record or New Message.
2Your receptionists answer as always, 24/7. Each call or message fires the trigger with full details.
3Your Zap takes it from there: filter, format, and send the data into any of 8,000+ apps.
FAQs
Do I need Zapier for the integrations in your catalog?
No. Catalog integrations are native and set up for you during onboarding at no charge. Zapier is for apps beyond the catalog, and for people who want to own their own automations.
What triggers does Abby have on Zapier?
Exactly two: New Call Record, which fires after each answered call, and New Message, which fires when a message is taken. Both are one-way: data flows out of Abby into your Zaps.
Can a Zap push data back into Abby?
No. Abby is a trigger app, outbound only. Changes to how your calls are handled happen with your receptionist team, not through automation.
Which answering service has a Zapier integration?
Abby Connect: an answering service with US-based receptionists and an AI receptionist option, plus a Zapier trigger app for the automations you want to build yourself.
Will Abby build my Zaps for me?
Zapier is self-serve by design: the point is that you own the logic. Your onboarding team can point you in the right direction, and if an app matters enough to your business, tell us: it may become a native integration we build for you.
Use a tool we haven’t listed?
We build missing integrations for new customers during onboarding, free. Tell us what you run on and we’ll connect it.
