It would also be great if Zapier could create LogBook Notes in Jolt or Take Logbook entries to put in another system. Ie We have a industry specific software that records "Incidents" and it would be great if they were also in Jolt so people would only have one place to look.

Thank you for the feedback!
We would love to hear more about how you would like to use Zapier.
What triggers would you want Jolt to have available in Zapier?
Additionally, what would you like to happen in Jolt after a trigger in Zapier is met?
Any information on what you are trying to accomplish with Zapier would be very helpful.

Bryan: I would like to use it for the points system. I could think of many other uses also but at the moment if lists and tasks could trigger events in other platforms would be extremely useful

Bryan: Hi Bryan, I would like to be able to trigger a list in Jolt when something happens in other platform. (the list/form) would need to be pre populate with information too) I would also like answers to forms in Jolt to be added to a google sheet and trigger activities in our other platforms.

Bryan: Triggers: complete list step, list completed, list overdue, form completed triggers add to google sheet/message in Slack/etc, certain data collected triggers message in Slack/adds card to Trello (maintenance issue found and reported in checklist is then added to maintenance board in Trello).
Actions: assign list (ability to assign lists is not functional in Jolt but is definitely needed).
There are more triggers needed than actions but there are many use cases if Zapier integration was available.
The three primary issues I have with Jolt are the inability to assign entire lists, lack of integrations, and no organization of lists (lists organized by FOH, BOH, Hospitality, etc). These three features would make Jolt an unstoppable force particularly for restaurants.
Bryan
David: Using it with the points system is not something I had thought of. Great Idea! Do you mind elaborating a little more about how you would like the point system to trigger other events? Or, did you want other systems to add to the point system?
With list and task triggers what other platforms would you like them to interact with?
Bryan
Arlene: Thank you for your insight.
From what I understand you would like an outside system to be able to create and pre populate some fields in a list.
Additionally upon list completion you would like answers from forms to be imported into a google sheet.
Bryan
Jason: We are definitely going for unstoppably helpful for businesses. Thanks for your feedback it really helps us get there.
I have some good news for you in regards to lists. We recently doubled the number of developers working on list features. I am not part of the lists team so I am not sure what features are coming first, but I do know the pace of features is going to increase. I'll pass along your feedback about assigning lists and organizing lists.
As far as integrations as you probably guessed from my questions that we are looking into how to incorporate integrations going forward. This will take longer than list features, but still heading in the right direction of unstoppably helpful software.

Bryan: That would be great thanks

Bryan: Thanks for the quick reply! Good news about list team doubling. There are some list features that are phenomenal in Jolt and really keep me tied in, but without the assigning and organization of lists, it's pretty difficult to achieve my vision. I'll get in touch with the list team to see what's coming when. Thanks again.
Bryan
Jason: Go ahead and upvote this item on the lists board. It is the one for grouping/organizing lists.
