Setting Up a Zap
With Zapier you can create customizable actions, or Zaps, that send information of your choosing from one app to another, freeing you from manual data input. In other words, you can automate the integration between Wrike and any other app or service that supports Zapier and get your work done faster.
To use Wrike and Zapier, create a Zapier account. Setting up a Zap with Wrike will connect your Wrike account.
