API KEY

AUTOMATION

Automation

Every zap, workflow, and automation your team runs lives in Zapier. Zapier MCP gives your agent authenticated access to automation infrastructure scoped to the user who authorized it.

  • Acts as the user: Access and write actions stay tied to the Zapier MCP account that authorized the agent.
  • Credentials stay vaulted: AES-256, resolved at request time, never in LLM context.
  • Scoped before every call: Permissions enforced. 90-day audit trail.

SEE HOW AUTH WORKS
Users authorize Zapier MCP once. Their credentials stay vaulted, every call is checked, and every action is logged.
1
Authorize
Your user connects
Zapier MCP
once. We tie it to their identity and the meetings they approved — no shared bot account, no org-wide access
Who:
user ‘A’
when:
Once per user
access:
Limited to user
2
Store
Their
Zapier MCP
token lives in a vault scoped to them. User A's meetings are never reachable by an agent acting for user B, even on the same connection
vault:
encrypted
scope:
per-user
tokens:
auto-refreshed
3
Resolve
When your agent calls a
Zapier MCP
tool, we fetch the right token server-side. It never touches your agent, never appears in the LLM context, never shows up in your logs
speed:
~40ms
check:
before every call
seen by:
nobody
4
Audit
Every
Zapier MCP
tool call is logged — who triggered it, which meeting was fetched, what came back. 90 days of history, tied to the user who authorized it
history:
90 days
export:
SIEM-ready
logged:
every call

Why Scalekit
Secure your agent's access. Connectors ship in minutes
Other connector libraries treat auth as a demo afterthought. Scalekit starts with user identity, scope enforcement, and audit.
01.
Shared tokens break per-user analytics
A shared token looks fine in a demo. In production every call looks like a service account. Scalekit resolves the real user credential so attribution, audit, and scope stay accurate.
// shared token
 audit → bot_service_account
 user_filter → broken

 // scalekit
 audit → user_abc
 scope → enforced ✓
02.
Authentication is not authorization
03.
Multi-tenancy is architectural
04.
Zapier MCP today. Others tomorrow.
“Our agents act across Salesforce, Gong, Google Drive, and more, on behalf of every customer. Scalekit behind the scenes meant we can keep adding tools without ever rebuilding how credentials or tool calling work.”

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the agent access Zapier MCP as the user or as a shared key?
As the user. Each workspace member authorizes once and Scalekit resolves their credential at request time. Audit logs attribute every action to that user, not a shared service account.
Where is the Zapier MCP api key stored?
In Scalekit's managed AES-256 token vault, namespaced per tenant. Refresh is automatic. Revocation is a single dashboard action. Tokens never appear in prompts, logs, or LLM context.
Can I limit what the agent is allowed to do in Zapier MCP?
Yes. Pass a tool name filter to listScopedTools so the automation agent only sees the subset you authorize. Pre-API-call scope checks block out-of-policy actions before the request reaches Zapier MCP.
What happens when a user revokes Zapier MCP access?
The connection is invalidated on the next tool call. Subsequent requests for that user fail closed with a clear error. Other users in the tenant remain unaffected. The event is logged for audit.
Can the agent trigger zaps owned by other team members?
Only zaps accessible under the authorizing user's API key. Zapier keys are account-scoped. Team-shared zaps are accessible if the key has team-level access configured in Zapier settings.
