Agents run multi-step actions across connected apps from one request.

Zapier MCP server
Give AI agents governed access to the Zapier MCP server through one audited gateway. Scoped permissions, full observability, and tamper-evident logs on every tool call.
What is the Zapier MCP server?
The Zapier MCP server is an open Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets AI agents run actions across thousands of connected apps. Through it an agent can find an action, run it, and check results without bespoke integration code for each app, while the Averta MCP Gateway keeps every action scoped and audited.
Find an action across connected apps.
Run a configured action with inputs.
List connected apps available to the agent.
Search the actions a specific app exposes.
Read the status and output of a run.
Create a record in a connected app.
Send a notification through a connected channel.
List recent action executions.
Why the Averta MCP Gateway
Centralized governance
Unified authentication, audit logging, and rate control for every Zapier MCP connection.
Observability and control
Real-time visibility into usage, anomalies, and SLA compliance across every request.
One-click deployment
Enable the Zapier MCP server for your AI teams through one governed gateway, with no manual setup.
Enterprise hardening
High availability, security, and compliance alignment turn MCP from a developer utility into production-grade infrastructure.
OAuth and SSO enforcement
Enterprise authentication and SSO applied automatically to every Zapier endpoint.
Shared and per-user auth
Configure service accounts or per-user access, with secrets protected and centralized revocation.
One managed endpoint
Connect agents to Zapier through a single governed endpoint instead of locally run servers, improving your security posture.
Granular tool access control
Allow only the tools each role needs. Enable read-only access and block write tools like create and delete.
Works with every major AI platform
CognitionBuilt for enterprise teams.
Cloud, private VPC, embedded SDK, or gateway integration. Run Averta where your data, policies, and auditors need it.
Cloud (SaaS)
Fully managed by Averta. Fastest path to production, no infrastructure to run.
Private / VPC
Deploy in your own environment, so data never leaves your boundary.
Embedded SDK & Proxy
Drop Averta into your stack at the SDK or proxy layer, wherever your agents run.
Gateway Integration
Route agent traffic through the gateway, so policy and audit apply at the edge.

Security and setup questions teams ask before connecting the Zapier MCP server to AI agents.
Yes. The Averta MCP Gateway sits between your AI agents and any MCP server, giving each agent scoped, per-agent permissions, applying allow, escalate, or block policies on every tool call, and recording a tamper-evident audit of every action. The “Why the Averta MCP Gateway” section on this page covers what it enforces.
It is as safe as the controls around it. The server can run actions across many connected apps through one connection, so scoping which actions are allowed is the real risk. The Averta MCP Gateway limits and records every run.
Yes. Tool-level policy lets safe actions run automatically while sensitive ones escalate for approval, all recorded.
Route agents through Averta's MCP Gateway for scoped per-agent permissions, tool-level policy, and tamper-evident audit across every Zapier action.
Yes. Zapier provides an official MCP server that exposes your connected app actions. Routing it through the Averta MCP Gateway is what keeps each agent limited to approved actions with a tamper-evident audit trail.
Zapier's MCP server is available on Zapier's plans and bills with your Zapier usage. The governance question is separate: the Averta MCP Gateway controls which actions an agent can run and records every call.
