Zapier

The Unsora app for Zapier lets your Zaps clip long videos, generate AI video, images, music, and voiceovers, and schedule posts to your connected social accounts. It uses the same Unsora API as the web app, authenticated with your API key.

​

What you need

• An Unsora account. Sign up at tryunsora.com.
• An Unsora API key. Create one at app.tryunsora.com/api-keys. Keys start with uns_.
• Credits for clipping and generation. Posting needs a paid plan and at least one social account connected in the Unsora web app.

​

Connect Unsora

1. In the Zap editor, add a step and search for Unsora.
2. Pick a trigger, action, or search, then select Sign in.
3. Paste your API key into API Key and select Yes, Continue. Leave Base URL as it is.

Zapier tests the key and labels the connection with your credit balance. Your connected social accounts, voices, and models then load into the dropdowns.

​

Triggers

The Unsora API doesn’t send webhooks, so these triggers poll on your Zapier plan’s update interval. Each item triggers once.

​

Actions

Create Post takes your accounts from a dropdown, a caption, and a video, images, or no media for a text-only post (Media Type None (text post)). Turn on Show Platform Options to set TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, and Google Business options. Actions that spend credits accept an optional Idempotency Key. If a Zap replays with the same key, Unsora returns the original job instead of charging again.

​

Searches

​

Use results from clipping and generation

Zapier steps must finish in about 30 seconds, but clipping and generation take longer. Create actions return the job ID and status QUEUED right away. To use the result, pick one of these patterns:

• Second Zap (recommended). Zap 1 runs Create Clipping or a generation action. Zap 2 starts with Clipping Completed or Generation Completed and uses the result.
• Delay in the same Zap. After the create action, add Delay by Zapier, then Find Clipping or Get Generation Status, then a Filter that continues only when status is COMPLETED.

​

Example Zaps

• YouTube to TikTok on autopilot. YouTube: New Video in Channel → Create Clipping (9:16, captions on). Second Zap: Clipping Completed → Looping by Zapier over the clips → Create Post with each clip URL.
• Podcast drop to Shorts. Google Drive: New File in Folder → Upload File → Create Clipping with the upload’s URL.
• Failure alerts. Post Failed → Slack: Send Channel Message with the caption and each account’s error.
• Low-credit warning. Schedule by Zapier → Get Credits with Minimum Credits → Email by Zapier.

​

Troubleshooting

The connection test fails. Check that you pasted the whole key, starting with uns_, and that it hasn’t been revoked at app.tryunsora.com/api-keys. An action fails because you’re out of credits. Run Get Credits or top up in the web app. A post fails with PLAN_REQUIRED (HTTP 403). Scheduling and publishing need a paid plan. A step is throttled. Each API key allows 60 requests per minute. Zapier retries throttled steps automatically. Upload File fails on a large file. Zapier holds the whole file in memory. For files over about 50 MB, host the file and use Upload From URL. An account is missing from the dropdown. Connect it in the Unsora web app, then select Refresh fields.
