# Ravn in Zapier, with Webhooks by Zapier

Add a Webhooks by Zapier action with the POST event, send the email as JSON to https://api.askravn.com/v1/tools/validate_email with an Authorization header, then add a Filter so only valid addresses continue. This needs a Zapier plan that includes Webhooks.

Setup
## Build the webhook step

- / 01
### Add the action
After your trigger, add an action and choose Webhooks by Zapier, event POST.
- / 02
### Set URL and payload type
URL `https://api.askravn.com/v1/tools/validate_email`. Payload Type `json`.
- / 03
### Map the data
Under Data, add the key `email` and map the email field from your trigger as the value.
- / 04
### Add headers
Under Headers add `Authorization` = `Bearer rw_live_…` and `Content-Type` = `application/json`.
- / 05
### Test and filter
Test the step. Then add a Filter: continue only if the result Status is `ok` and the result Results Status is `valid`.
Config
## What the step sends and gets back
Zapier flattens the response, so nested fields show up as separate values you can map in later steps.
```
POST https://api.askravn.com/v1/tools/validate_email
Authorization: Bearer rw_live_…
Content-Type: application/json

{ "email": "jane@acme.com" }

→ 200
{
"status": "ok",
"results": {
"email": "jane@acme.com",
"status": "valid",
"risk_score": "A",
"reason": "mailbox_exists",
"disposable": false,
"role_account": false,
"catch_all": false
},
"metadata": { "lookups_used": 1 }
}
```

## Zaps worth building

- / 01
### Stop junk form fills
Form submission → Ravn verify → Filter on `valid` → add to your email tool. Disposable and mistyped addresses never reach your list.
- / 02
### Find the email for a new deal
New CRM deal with a contact name and company domain → POST to `search_business_email_by_name` with keys `name` and `company` → update the contact. See [the email finder API](https://askravn.com/features/email-finder-api).
- / 03
### Route by company size
New lead → POST to `domain_to_company` → Paths by `employee_count`. It runs on your own provider key (People Data Labs), one lookup per company found; see [pricing](https://askravn.com/pricing).
Good to know
## Keeping Zaps cheap and predictable
Put the Ravn step after any Filter that already drops rows you don’t care about, so you only spend lookups on records that matter. Every tool is one lookup, and a miss is free. Our own checks (verify, find email, website, phone validation, IP) need no key; people and company lookups run on your own provider key (People Data Labs), which bills you for the records.
Use the free `get_usage` tool in a scheduled Zap if you want a daily note of what was used. If a Zap starts returning 429, you have hit a rate limit or your monthly spending cap (429 spend_cap_reached); see [how fair use works](https://askravn.com/fair-use). To try a verdict before building anything, use [the free email verifier](https://askravn.com/tools/email-verifier).
FAQ
## Common questions.
[All questions →](https://askravn.com/faq)Can I use Ravn on a free Zapier plan?Webhooks by Zapier is only available on Zapier plans that include it. On other plans, run list jobs with [the CSV command](https://askravn.com/integrations/csv) or use [Make](https://askravn.com/integrations/make) or [n8n](https://askravn.com/integrations/n8n) instead.Is there a Ravn app in the Zapier directory?No. Webhooks by Zapier calls our REST API directly, which gives you every tool rather than a fixed list of actions.What happens in the Zap when no email is found?The step still succeeds with HTTP 200 and `status: not_found`, and the lookup is given back. Your Filter stops the run there, so nothing downstream gets an empty value.My Zap step errors with 403 provider_key_required. What does it mean?You called a people, company or carrier tool without your own provider key connected. Add one with `ravn keys add pdl` (or `twilio`), or on the account page, then retry. Our own checks such as verification need no key; details are on [the pricing page](https://askravn.com/pricing).
