Sign-in
Gemini supports both. OAuth is quicker on your own machine.
| OAuth Gemini | API key Gemini | |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | Paste the URL, sign in to Zaprep | Create a key in Settings, then API keys |
| Best for | Chat apps and editors on your own machine | CLIs, CI, servers and workflow tools |
| Credentials stored | Short-lived tokens, refreshed automatically | One zap_ key you keep secret |
| Revoke | Disconnect it in Settings, then AI tools | Delete it in Settings, then API keys |

Using something else? See the general MCP setup.
Yes. Add it as a custom app under Settings & help, then Connected Apps. Custom apps need a Google AI Pro (US) or Ultra plan, and Google shows a notice that the app runs outside its control before you connect.
In Gemini CLI, yes: put "httpUrl" and a "headers" block with "Authorization": "Bearer zap_..." in ~/.gemini/settings.json. The Gemini app always signs in with OAuth.
In ~/.gemini/settings.json for all projects, or .gemini/settings.json inside one project.
Yes. Zaprep runs its own remote MCP server at https://www.zaprep.com/api/mcp. No Zapier or other middleman is involved.
Yes. MCP access is included on every Zaprep plan, Free included. Your plan’s usual limits on automations and DMs still apply.
To run automations, yes: connect an Instagram professional account or a Facebook Page in Zaprep first. Without one the AI can only read your Zaprep settings.
Instagram professional accounts and Facebook Pages today. TikTok and YouTube are coming next.
New automations an AI creates are saved paused, so nothing sends until you or the AI turns it on after you confirm. Edits to an automation that is already on apply right away, and most AI apps ask before running a change. You can disconnect any AI app in Zaprep under Settings, then AI tools.
Yes. Once connected, the AI can list and export the contacts your automations collected, including emails. Only connect AI apps you trust, and disconnect any you stop using.
Open Settings, then AI tools in Zaprep and choose Disconnect next to the app. It is signed out right away. For an API key, delete it under Settings, then API keys.
Last updated . Menu names in other apps change often; the official docs link above has the latest.
Free plan, no card. Connect Instagram or a Facebook Page, then add Zaprep to your AI tool.
