Built with

The You.com Zapier integration connects the Search, Content, and News APIs to more than 8,000 apps — no code required. Build automated workflows that pull real-time web data and route results to Slack, Google Sheets, Notion, Airtable, Gmail, or anywhere else you work.


Getting Started

1

Go to the You.com Zapier integration

Visit zapier.com/apps/youcom/integrations and click Connect You.com.

2

Authenticate with your API key

When prompted, enter your You.com API key. Get one at you.com/platform.

3

Create a Zap

Choose a trigger (any Zapier-supported app or schedule) and add a You.com action step. Configure your query and map the results to your destination app.


Available Actions

ActionWhat It Does
Web SearchRuns a query against the You.com Search API and returns structured web results
Content ExtractionFetches the full text of one or more URLs as clean Markdown or HTML
News SearchReturns breaking news articles from hundreds of publishers matching your query

Example Workflows

Research digest to Slack

Trigger on a daily schedule → run a You.com web search → format results → post to a Slack channel. Useful for morning briefings, competitive monitoring, or staying current on a fast-moving topic.

Competitor pricing monitor

Trigger on a weekly schedule → use Content Extraction to fetch competitor pricing pages → send the Markdown output to an LLM step → post a summary to Notion or Google Docs.

News alert to email

Trigger on a schedule → run a You.com News Search for your topic → filter results → send matching articles as a formatted email digest via Gmail.

Form-to-research pipeline

Trigger when a new row appears in a Google Sheet → run a You.com search for each entry → append the top results back into the sheet. Useful for sales research, lead enrichment, or content sourcing.
