The Powerly Zapier plugin allows you to connect your EV charging operations with thousands of other applications using no-code automation. You can trigger actions, move data, and respond to events in real time using Powerly’s API and webhook infrastructure.
This is ideal for developers, operators, and business teams who need to automate repetitive tasks or integrate Powerly with tools they already use, such as Google Sheets, Airtable, Slack, Notion, and CRMs.
What You Can Automate #
- Log session data into spreadsheets or databases
- Send alerts via email or messaging tools when a session starts or ends
- Sync users and fleet data to your CRM or ticketing system
- Automate invoicing and payment tracking workflows
- Trigger actions based on balance changes, charger status, or user feedback
Available Triggers and Actions #
| Triggers | Actions |
|---|---|
| Charging session started | Create user or fleet record |
| Charging session ended | Send message or email |
| New transaction recorded | Add entry to Google Sheets |

Note: All triggers require a valid API key and webhook setup.
