Zuora’s Subscription Economy® billing solutions help businesses monetize their innovations through flexible pricing strategies and simple, automated billing operations.
Go to siteZuora Billing API grants the power to automate complex billing processes, manage subscriptions, and handle payments with ease. On Pipedream, you can craft workflows that react to events in Zuora, synchronize data across multiple platforms, and perform actions based on specific triggers. For instance, you can update a CRM record when a subscription is renewed, send out custom email alerts on payment failures, or generate detailed financial reports by aggregating billing data.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
zuora: {
type: "app",
app: "zuora",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `${this.zuora.$auth.api_tenant_environment}/v1/catalog/products`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.zuora.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
"Content-Type": `application/json`,
},
})
},
})
Subscription Status Webhook to Slack Notification: When a subscription status changes in Zuora, a Pipedream workflow can catch this event and post a notification to a designated Slack channel. This keeps teams instantly informed about customer subscription lifecycles without manual checks.
Failed Payment Retry Logic: Create a workflow that listens for failed payment events from Zuora. Use conditional logic within Pipedream to determine if a retry should occur based on predefined criteria (e.g., number of attempts, type of error). If a retry is warranted, Pipedream can automatically initiate the payment process again in Zuora.
Monthly Financial Summary to Google Sheets: At the end of each month, trigger a Pipedream workflow to query Zuora for all closed invoices. Aggregate the data to calculate key financial metrics and then append the results to a Google Sheet for easy access and analysis by your finance team.

When you connect your Zuora Billing account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Zuora Billing and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account.
