How do I send a notification to my phone from Zapier?

Add a "Webhooks by Zapier" POST step pointed at Lert. Paste your Lert link as the URL, set a title and body, and every time the zap runs your phone buzzes. No code, no account, no keys.

Zapier already connects thousands of apps — new rows, new leads, new emails, calendar events. The one thing it isn't great at is putting a real, instant buzz on your phone. Lert fills that gap with a single webhook step. There's no Zapier app to search for and no key to paste, because your Lert link is the credential — you just POST to it.

Set it up in under 30 seconds

  1. Download the app. Open it once — there's no account to create. Your private link is on screen.
  2. Copy your link. One tap copies https://lert.dev/p/your-id.
  3. Add a Webhooks by Zapier action. Choose POST, paste your link as the URL, and map title and body from the previous step.

Turn the zap on and the next trigger buzzes your phone.

Example: the Webhooks by Zapier "POST" step

zapier · webhooks POST
# Action: Webhooks by Zapier → POST
URL          https://lert.dev/p/your-id
Payload Type json
Data
  title  New lead 🎯
  body   {{1. Full Name}} from {{1. Company}}
  tag    leads

The {{...}} fields are Zapier's dynamic values from your trigger step — click the field and pick them from the dropdown. No headers to add, no auth to configure; Zapier sends JSON to your link and Lert does the rest.

No-code all the way: this same webhook step works from Make, n8n, IFTTT, or any tool that can send an HTTP POST. If it can hit a URL, it can buzz your phone through Lert.
