What is ERPNext Zapier / Make Connector?

A build-to-order Zapier and Make integration app that exposes ERPNext DocType events as no-code triggers and whitelisted methods as actions. ECOSIRE scopes, builds, installs, and supports it — it is not an off-the-shelf Marketplace download. Built to order by ECOSIRE for ERPNext v15, v16 — indicative price from $999.00 USD; request a quote for a scoped proposal.

Key Features

Proper Frappe app packaging (own module, `hooks.py`, fixtures) installable via `bench get-app` / `bench install-app` on v15 and v16
Outbound triggers driven by `doc_events` doc hooks: `after_insert`, `on_update`, `on_submit`, `on_cancel`, `on_trash` per configured DocType
Published (or private) Zapier app and Make app so 'ERPNext' appears as a selectable app with branded auth screens
Actions backed by `@frappe.whitelist()` methods with argument validation — never raw, unguarded REST writes
OAuth2 and API key/secret authentication handled end-to-end, with token refresh and per-user scoping
HMAC-signed payloads plus a delivery-log DocType recording every attempt, response code, and retry
Background enqueue via Frappe's job queue so web workers never block on outbound HTTP
Automatic retry with backoff and a scheduler event that reconciles missed or failed deliveries
Permission-aware: every trigger and action runs as a dedicated integration user under a scoped Role Profile
Field mapping that surfaces custom fields and flattens child tables predictably for Zapier/Make UIs
Configurable trigger filters (e.g. only Sales Orders above a value, only a given workflow state) via a settings DocType
Dynamic dropdowns in Zapier/Make populated live from your ERPNext link fields and select options
De-duplication and idempotency keys so retries and platform re-polls never create duplicate records
Optional polling triggers (REST-based) for platforms or events where webhooks are impractical

About this Product

Most teams running ERPNext eventually hit the same wall: the business lives across dozens of SaaS tools — CRMs, email platforms, spreadsheets, form builders, Slack, accounting add-ons — and ERPNext has no first-class presence inside no-code automation platforms. You can hand-roll individual webhooks from ERPNext's built-in Webhook DocType, but they are one-directional, fire per-doctype-event only, carry no structured auth story for Zapier or Make, and give business users nothing to configure without a developer. There is no polished "ERPNext" app in the Zapier or Make directories that a marketer or ops lead can pick from a dropdown. That gap is exactly where ERPNext native runs out of road.

ECOSIRE builds a proper Frappe app — a versioned module with its own DocTypes, hooks.py doc events, whitelisted API methods, and a dedicated integration user with a scoped Role Profile — plus the matching published (or private/embedded) app on the Zapier and Make sides. On the ERPNext side, doc_events hooks (after_insert, on_update, on_submit, on_cancel, on_trash) enqueue outbound payloads through a background job so your web workers never block, with retry, HMAC signing, and a delivery log DocType for full auditability. On the platform side, the connector authenticates via API key/secret or OAuth2, polls or subscribes to your triggers, and exposes ERPNext create/update/submit operations as clean, field-mapped actions backed by whitelisted @frappe.whitelist() methods — never raw, unguarded endpoints.

The result is that a business user opens Zapier or Make, picks "ERPNext" from the app list, authenticates once, and wires triggers like "New Sales Order", "Customer Updated", or "Payment Entry Submitted" to any of 5000+ downstream apps — and actions like "Create Lead" or "Update Stock Entry" from inbound automations — with no code. Field mapping honors your custom fields, child tables are flattened predictably, and every trigger respects ERPNext permissions so an automation can never read or write past the integration user's Role Profile. Scheduler events keep polling triggers fresh and reconcile any missed webhooks.

Because this is a build-to-order engagement, we tailor the app to your actual DocTypes, custom fields, and workflow states rather than shipping a lowest-common-denominator marketplace plugin. Delivery is typically one working week from confirmed scope: we start with a short scoping call, agree the exact triggers, actions, and field mappings, build against your v15 or v16 instance, validate on a staging bench, then install on production with a rollback plan. You receive the full source, docs, and a support window — you are never locked out of your own integration.

What you get

  • Installable source code for your version — a versioned Frappe app scoped to your v15 or v16 instance
  • Installation and configuration on your staging and production benches, including the integration user and Role Profile
  • The published/private Zapier app and Make scenario package with auth and trigger/action definitions
  • Technical documentation: architecture, hook map, whitelisted methods, payload schemas, and env/config reference
  • End-user guide plus a live training session for the team who will build Zaps/Scenarios
  • UAT on a staging bench with an agreed test plan and a documented rollback procedure
  • Post-go-live support window for defect fixes and configuration adjustments
  • Git repository handover with full commit history so you own and can extend the codebase

Who this is for

Operations lead running ERPNext

Owns day-to-day ERPNext and needs sales orders, payments, and stock events to flow into the team's other tools without filing a developer ticket for every new automation. Wants business users to self-serve in Zapier or Make.

RevOps / marketing automation manager

Lives in Zapier/Make and a CRM or email platform, and needs ERPNext as a reliable trigger and action source — new Leads and Customers in, order and invoice events out — with correct field mapping to custom fields.

Fractional CTO / systems integrator

Responsible for a client's ERPNext stack and wants a maintainable, permission-scoped integration app with source handover and docs, not a brittle pile of raw webhooks that no one can safely change later.

Finance / order-ops manager

Needs submitted Payment Entries and Sales Invoices to reliably notify downstream approval, reconciliation, or notification workflows, with an auditable delivery log proving every event fired.

Frequently Asked Questions about ERPNext Zapier / Make Connector

Is this a ready-to-download app on the Frappe or Zapier marketplace?

No. This is a build-to-order engagement. ECOSIRE scopes, builds, installs, and supports a Frappe app plus the matching Zapier and Make apps tailored to your DocTypes and workflows. There is no instant download — you receive the source and a running integration on your own benches.

How long does delivery take?

Typically one working week from confirmed scope. Timing depends on the number of triggers, actions, and custom field mappings agreed on the scoping call. We build against your v15 or v16 instance, validate on staging, then install on production with a rollback plan.

What ERPNext and Frappe versions are supported?

Frappe/ERPNext v15 and v16. The app is a proper Frappe app using `hooks.py` doc events, whitelisted methods, and the REST API, so it upgrades cleanly with your bench. Older versions can be quoted separately if needed.

How are triggers and actions actually implemented under the hood?

Triggers use `doc_events` hooks (`after_insert`, `on_update`, `on_submit`, etc.) that enqueue signed, background-processed payloads to Zapier/Make. Actions are `@frappe.whitelist()` methods with validation, called via API key/secret or OAuth2. Everything runs as a scoped integration user, so ERPNext permissions are always enforced.

What about support and updates after go-live?

Every engagement includes a post-go-live support window for defect fixes and configuration adjustments. Because you receive the full git repository and documentation, your own team can also extend it. Longer-term maintenance or new triggers/actions can be arranged as a follow-on.

Will it respect our permissions and custom fields?

Yes. The integration runs under a dedicated user with a scoped Role Profile, so automations can never read or write beyond what that role allows. Custom fields and child tables are included in the field mapping and surfaced in the Zapier/Make interfaces.

How do you prevent duplicate records from retries or re-polls?

Payloads carry idempotency keys and the app de-duplicates on the ERPNext side, so background retries, platform re-polls, or replayed webhooks never create duplicate documents. A delivery-log DocType records every attempt for auditing.
