Set up real-time notifications using Zapier

Use Zapier to send notifications to internal communication applications (ie: Slack) for each order for your event(s). You can customize the Universe data that is sent and for which or all of your Universe events. The following example uses Slack to demonstrate this capability. More information can be found on our guide on sending Universe data to other apps using Zapier.
