Transfer allows Zapier users to move data in bulk from one app to another, making it easy to transfer critical data such as leads, sales, and customer records between apps. During the beta period, users can pick and choose which data to move — including historical data — and transfer it to any of the apps Zapier supports.
“Since Zapier began, customers have shared they want an easier way to work with bulk data. Starting today, all customers can use the beta experience of Transfer to move data in bulk and on demand,” said Knoop at ZapConnect. “This launch is a signal of our ongoing commitment to listening and building for our global community of automation heroes.”
