Connect Prelap to your tools

Prelap can push review events to the tools your team already lives in. One engine powers everything: Slack gets readable messages, and any other app connects through a signed webhook you can catch with Zapier, Make, n8n, or your own code.

Events you can automate

• New client feedback: a note, voice note, or forwarded email arrived.
• Client finished reviewing: they tapped Notify editor, with their note count and overall verdict.
• Version approved: the round is complete.
• New version live: a cut just became visible to the client.
• Checklist completed: every item on the round is done.

Connect Slack

1. 1In Slack, open Apps, search for Incoming Webhooks, click Add to Slack, pick the channel (for example #reviews), and copy the webhook URL.
2. 2In Prelap, go to Settings, then Integrations, and click Add Slack.
3. 3Paste the URL, pick which events you want, and save.
4. 4Click Test. You should see a hello message land in the channel.

From then on your channel gets one clean line per event, like: Sarah finished reviewing Video 13 v4, 3 notes to work through, with a link straight into the Prelap workspace.

Connect Trello, ClickUp, monday, Asana (via Zapier)

Prelap's webhooks work with Zapier's Catch Hook trigger, which means any of the 8,000+ apps on Zapier can react to your review events.

1. 1In Zapier, create a Zap with the trigger Webhooks by Zapier, event Catch Hook. Copy the hook URL it gives you.
2. 2In Prelap, go to Settings, then Integrations, click Add webhook, paste the URL, and pick your events (for example only Version approved).
3. 3Copy the signing secret Prelap shows you once and store it somewhere safe (optional but recommended, see Security below).
4. 4Click Test in Prelap so Zapier receives a sample, then finish the Zap: add an action like Trello, Create Card or ClickUp, Create Task, mapping fields from the sample.

Popular recipes: Version approved creates a card in the Done list; New client feedback creates a task assigned to the editor; Checklist completed posts to a delivery channel and moves the Trello card.

Connect Make or n8n

Exactly the same flow: create a Webhook trigger in Make (Custom webhook) or n8n (Webhook node), paste its URL into Prelap as a webhook, send a Test, and build from the sample payload. No Prelap-specific module is needed.

Email feedback in

Every project also has a private intake address, shown in the Share Link dialog. Forward a client's feedback email to it (or give the client the address) and the notes land on the project's latest cut, parsed into your checklist automatically, and your integrations fire like any other feedback.

Webhook reference

Generic webhooks receive a JSON envelope with a stable shape. Event names never change.

{
  "event": "version.approved",
  "timestamp": "2026-07-11T10:30:00.000Z",
  "workspace": { "id": "…", "name": "Sami's Studio" },
  "project":   { "id": "…", "name": "Brand Film", "clientName": "Sarah" },
  "version":   { "id": "…", "number": 3 },
  "data":      { },
  "links":     { "editor": "https://prelap.io/dashboard/projects/…" }
}

Event names: feedback.received, client.done, version.approved, version.uploaded, checklist.completed. The data object carries event extras, for example noteCount and verdict on client.done, or source and excerpt on feedback.received.

Verifying signatures

Every generic delivery is signed so your endpoint can prove it came from Prelap. The X-Prelap-Signature header contains an HMAC-SHA256 of the raw request body using your hook's signing secret, and X-Prelap-Event carries the event name.

import crypto from "crypto";

function isFromPrelap(rawBody, signatureHeader, secret) {
  const expected =
    "sha256=" +
    crypto.createHmac("sha256", secret).update(rawBody).digest("hex");
  return signatureHeader === expected;
}

Security

• The signing secret is shown exactly once, at creation. Store it like a password.
• Subscribe each hook to only the events it needs.
• Pause or delete a hook anytime in Settings, Integrations; deliveries stop immediately.
• Deliveries are fire-and-forget: a slow or dead endpoint never blocks your work or your client's review.
