Set up

Add Zapier to GitHub Copilot in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in GitHub Copilot then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Approve Zapier in Runlayer

    Add Zapier from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.

  2. 2

    Connect GitHub Copilot to Runlayer

    GitHub Copilot gets connector tools through the Runlayer Plugin, and reaches Zapier’s 17 tools through the plugin’s search and execute tools.

  3. 3

    Sign in to Zapier

    Sign in the way Zapier requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Zapier from GitHub Copilot

    Zapier’s approved tools appear in GitHub Copilot. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Tools

17 Zapier tools in GitHub Copilot

Runlayer policy decides which of these GitHub Copilot users can call.

  • Auto provision MCP

    Automatically set up this MCP server based on the user's existing connected accounts.

  • Create Zapier skill

    Saves a workflow as a reusable Zapier Skill — a good fit for multi-step workflows the user runs repeatedly or tool calls that always use the same parameters.

  • Delete Zapier skill

    Permanently delete a Zapier Skill by name.

  • Disable Zapier action

    Remove an app's actions from this MCP server.

  • Discover Zapier actions

    Search 9,000+ apps to find actions you can enable.

  • Enable Zapier action

    Enable an app's actions on this MCP server.

  • Execute Zapier read action

    Execute a search or read action to get data from a connected app.

  • Execute Zapier write action

    Execute a write or create action in a connected app.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in GitHub Copilot

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what GitHub Copilot exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Zapier call from GitHub Copilot passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, GitHub Copilot as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Native enforcement adapter (not available)

    Runlayer has no device-side adapter for GitHub Copilot yet, so control happens at the gateway.
