Transform your internal communications with Zapier
Zapier helps HR professionals build more reliable internal communications automation. Route announcement requests, deliver employee updates, and track communication activity—and that's just the start.
Announcement routing
Keep every announcement moving to the right place
Zapier automates how internal announcements are collected, routed, and prepared for delivery. Requests from Google Forms, Gmail, or Slack can be organized in Google Sheets or sent to Microsoft Teams for review. That means HR can move faster without losing context or chasing approvals.
Smart request intake
Capture announcement requests from forms or inboxes and send them straight into your review flow. HR gets complete details early, so fewer updates stall waiting for missing information.
Message approval alerts
Notify reviewers in Slack or Microsoft Teams when a new internal communications draft needs attention. Faster approvals help employee updates go out on time instead of sitting in a queue.
Inbox-based routing
Turn emails in Gmail or Microsoft Outlook into structured communication tasks with owners and due dates. This keeps ad hoc requests from getting buried in crowded inboxes.
Form submission logging
Send every Google Forms submission into Google Sheets or Notion for tracking and follow-up. Teams get a clean request trail without manual entry.
Audience-based distribution
Route updates based on team, office, or employee status pulled from BambooHR, Hibob, or Personio. The right people get the right message without extra sorting.
