ContestPad allows you to integrate with thousands of applications using Zapier. This article explains the basic setup to allow user data when users are:

  • Deleted

Once Zapier integration is in place when any of these events occur the data about to use will be sent to Zapier which can then be pushed to thousands of applications that Zapier supports.
