Transform your design request intake with Zapier
Zapier helps design teams build a more reliable design request intake process without adding admin work. Capture incoming requests, route approval-ready work, and track intake status—and that's just the start.
Request capture
Every design request starts in the right place
Capture design requests automatically from forms, chat, and email. Zapier can send submissions from Google Forms, Jotform, Typeform, or Gmail into Airtable, Asana, or monday.com with the right fields attached. That gives design teams a cleaner request intake process from the start.

Form submission capture
Send every new form submission straight into your intake system with the request details, requester info, and attachments included. That keeps design request intake consistent from the first touch.
Email request logging
Turn incoming Gmail messages into tracked design requests with subjects, briefs, and due dates pulled into one record. Your team no longer has to monitor inboxes for hidden work.
Chat-based intake
Convert Slack or Discord messages into structured requests when stakeholders ask for design help in chat. This makes request intake easier to standardize without changing where people work.
Attachment collection
Route uploaded files into Google Drive and attach them to the matching request record automatically. Designers get the assets they need without chasing links and screenshots.
Centralized intake records
Create one source of truth in Airtable, Google Sheets, or Notion as each design request arrives. Everyone can review the same intake data instead of piecing it together across tools.
