Set Zapier Action with Clearout to Find Email
{% hint style="info" %} **Important note** Use Clearout Zap version ≥ 2.2.0 to avoid Zapier’s 30‑second action timeout. If you stay on an older version, longer‑running tasks may need Zapier’s webhook‑based callbacks. Otherwise, actions that run over 30 seconds may fail with “The app did not respond in‑time.” {% endhint %} {% endstep %} {% step %} #### Connect your Clearout Account * In the Clearout action step, click **Connect a new account**.​ * When prompted, paste your **Clearout API Token**.​ How to generate your Clearout API key: * **Log in** to the Clearout Dashboard. * Go to [**Developer → API**](https://app.clearout.io/developer/api/list). * Click **Generate API Token**, give it a name, and copy the token.​ * **Paste** this token into Zapier and save the connection.
Once connected, map the email fields from your trigger app into the Clearout action, test the Zap, and turn it on. From then on, Clearout will **automatically verify or find emails every time your Zap runs**. {% endstep %} {% endstepper %}
