Plugin Compatibility
With thousands of WooCommerce extensions, addons and plugins available for WooCommerce, it can be difficult to know if they are compatible with WooCommerce Zapier.
Below is a list of WooCommerce Extensions that we have tested with WooCommerce Zapier.
Note
If a plugin that you are using isn’t listed below, it doesn’t necessarily mean it is or isn’t compatible. You can always purchase the WooCommerce Zapier extension and use the 30-day money back guarantee to try it for yourself.
Compatible Plugins¶
Below is a list of WooCommerce extensions that are compatible with WooCommerce Zapier.
WooCommerce Subscriptions¶
Compatibility with the WooCommerce Subscriptions plugin was added in version 1.6 of WooCommerce Zapier. You must be running at WooCommerce Subscriptions version 2.4.3 or later.
If you have WooCommerce Subscriptions installed, you can use Subscriptions data in your Zaps (Triggers and Actions).
You may also wish to view the WooCommerce Subscriptions documentation.
Checkout Field Editor¶
Compatibility with the WooCommerce Checkout Field Editor plugin was added in version 1.1 of WooCommerce Zapier.
Any additional checkout fields added to your store by the WooCommerce Checkout Field Editor plugin will be sent to Zapier , allowing you to use your custom checkout fields in your Zaps that use any Order trigger events.
You may also wish to view the Checkout Field Editor documentation.
Sequential Order Numbers Pro¶
Compatibility with the WooCommerce Sequential Order Numbers Pro plugin was added in version 1.1 of the Zapier Integration plugin.
If using the WooCommerce Sequential Order Numbers Pro plugin, we recommend using the number
data field (not the id
data field) in your Zap Triggers. See the Order Data Fields documentation for full details on the number
field.
You may also wish to view the Sequential Order Numbers Pro documentation.
WooCommerce Order Status Manager¶
Custom order statuses are supported, including ones created with the Order Status Manager extension.
We’d recommend using the Order status changed trigger rule, which triggers every time an order changes status (including changing to or from a custom order status).
WooCommerce Pre-Orders¶
Compatibility with the WooCommerce Pre-Orders plugin is included.
You typically need to use the Order status changed trigger rule, which will fire whenever an order changes status.
You can use this together with a filter to act only when an order changes status to pre-ordered
:
See the documentation on filters for more information.

Groups for WooCommerce¶
Whilst we haven’t extensively tested these plugins together, we do know of users that are using them successfully.
If you are encountering memory exhausted errors when using WooCommerce Zapier and Groups for WooCommerce, please update to version 1.7.3 which includes a fix that prevents an infinite recursion bug in WooCommerce core.
You may also wish to view the Groups for WooCommerce documentation.
WooCommerce Gravity Forms Add-Ons¶
WooCommerce Zapier includes support for the Gravity Forms Add-Ons extension.
The Gravity Forms Add-Ons data is sent to Zapier as part of the line_items
meta_data
field, allowing it to be used in Zap filters.
Note
Please keep in mind that the Zapier Zap editor won’t be aware of your additional Gravity Forms product fields up until an order is placed on your WooCommerce store for that product. After that, you can open the Zap Editor and you should see your Gravity Forms fields along with the standard fields.
URL Coupons¶
WooCommerce Zapier lets you create new Coupons in Zaps (using the Create Coupon action).
If you are using the URL Coupons Extension, you can automatically configure the URL Coupons settings (such as Unique URL and Page Redirect) for the coupon when it is created via a Zap:
To achieve this, in your Zap’s Create Coupon action, use the Meta Data List field to add a new the _wc_url_coupons_unique_url
metadata record. You would typically set the value of this field to the Slug output from the suggested Code by Zapier step:
Important
Please be sure to read the URL Coupons documentation which describes important things to consider when setting Coupon URLs.
If you would also like to set the Page Redirect attribute for the coupon, you can do so by adding two additional meta data records to your create coupon action:
_wc_url_coupons_redirect_page_type
set topage
._wc_url_coupons_redirect_page
set to the page ID of your choice.
The end result is a newly created coupon in WooCommerce with all three URL coupon settings automatically configured:
Partially Compatible Plugins¶
Below is a list of plugins that are partially compatible with WooCommerce Zapier.
WooCommerce Product Add-Ons¶
WooCommerce Zapier includes support for the Product Add-Ons extension.
The Product Add-Ons data is sent to Zapier as part of the line_items
and meta_data
fields, allowing them to be used in Zap filters.
We don’t recommend using the Product Add-Ons data in Zap templates, unless all of your products have the same add-on fields available. This is because a Zap requires a predictable set of data fields coming through for each and every order line item.
Warning
The Product Add-Ons extension stores addon price information in the meta key
field, which can result in a different key
value from order to order, making the key
name unpredictable and difficult to use in Zap actions.
Fancy Product Designer¶
Some WooCommerce Zapier users have reported success when using the Fancy Product Designer plugin, whereas others have encountered issues.
The Fancy Product Designer data is sent to Zapier as part of the line_items
→ meta_data
fields, allowing them to be used in Zaps.
Warning
This plugin is prone to store vast amounts of information, which can lead to the data exceeding the current limitation of Zapier platform (6MB) for Order or Product triggers. When this happens, you may be unable to create a Zap, or the corresponding task will fail.
One possible solution for preventing this to happen that filtering out the outgoing data in WooCommerce, as described in the Modifying or Extending Data and Fields chapter.
JWT Auth¶
The JWT Auth plugin forces its authentication method to all REST API requests (including WooCommerce Zapier). This interferes with the WooCommerce Zapier’s Actions functionality. It also prevents Trigger sample data from working.
The solution is to add WooCommerce Zapier’s endpoints to the JWT Auth plugin’s whitelist so that JWT authentication is not applied to WooCommerce Zapier’s endpoints.
Whitelist Example
add_filter( 'jwt_auth_whitelist', function ( $endpoints ) {
return array(
'/wc-zapier-auth/*',
'/wp-json/wc-zapier/*',
);
} );

Conflicting Plugins¶
Below is a list of plugins that our users have reported having conflicts or issues with when using them with WooCommerce Zapier.

The majority of the Jetpack plugin features are compatible with WooCommerce Zapier, but there are areas where you need to configure or disable functions to make the two plugins works together.
If you are using the Jetpack Protect feature, please consult the Jetpack Protect documentation for assistance.
If you are using the WordPress.com Secure Sign On feature, please see here for details on how to successfully authenticate.
Wordfence Security¶
To use Wordfence with Zapier Integration you will likely need to whitelist the WooCommerce Zapier REST API endpoints. You can find the list of the plugin endpoints inside our Developer Documentation.
In order to successfully authenticate, it is necessary to disable two factor authentication for the user account that you are authenticating WooCommerce Zapier with. Please ensure that the account has a very complex password to help improve security as much as possible. unfortunately, Wordfence Security’s Two Factor Authentication feature does not currently support application specific passwords.
You may experience difficulties authenticating if you are using Wordfence’s Brute Force Protection.
To see if Wordfence interfering with the communication, please go to WordPress Dashboard → Side Menu → Wordfence → Tools → Live Traffic and review the live traffic logs to identify the specific reason for the failure.
Tip
For busy stores, you may need to use the Show Advanced Filters -> User Agent = Zapier
option in order to only see Zapier authentication logs.

iThemes Security supports using application specific passwords, so when authenticating, please ensure that you use an application specific password rather than your usual password.
