Getting started
Create an account with SKOOT or sign in to your dashboard
Log in to your dashboard. If you don't already have a SKOOT account, just enter your email address and we will send you a login link to sign in
Add a payment method to your SKOOT dashboard
Before you start offsetting, you will need to add a payment method to your SKOOT account.
You will not be billed until you start offsetting with our API. Then you will be billed monthly.
Create an account with Zapier or sign in
Once you are logged in you will be taken to you Zapier dashboard. Go to Zapier.
Create your SKOOT Zap
- From the Create you own workflow section, choose to connect any app you use with SKOOT.
- Choose when you want the Zap to happen, and what you want it to do.
⭐️ E.g. Connect Gmail to SKOOT. When a new email is received in Gmail, plant a tree with SKOOT.
Authenticate your Zap
You will now have to authenticate both apps. Usually this is done by logging into the app and verifying your account.
When you come to authenticate SKOOT, choose to connect a new account. This will open a new window where you will be asked for your API key.
Generate your API key in the SKOOT dashboard
Leaving the Zapier windows open, open your SKOOT dashboard in a new tab and navigate to the APIs & Integrations section.
Name your token and click Generate API token and your API key will be displayed.
⚠️ This key will only be displayed once, so copy it and keep it safe
Connect SKOOT to Zapier
Copy your newly generated API key, and paste it into the Zapier window.
Click continue to allow Zapier access to your SKOOT account.
Configure your Zap
Once you have authenticated both apps, you just need to configure the details of what happens when it is triggered.
⭐️ Choose to 'plant a tree' or 'fund carbon projects'. And then set the quantity of how many trees or how much offset each time your zap is triggered.
Test, publish and start offsetting
Now you just have to test everything is working correctly. Once you're happy, publish your Zap and start watching your positive climate impact increase on your Impact Profile.
