Download the source code of a CLI integration

If at any point you do not have the source code for your CLI integration and need it to make changes, you can download a zip file of the source code directly from the Platform UI.

Prerequisites

Before doing this, you would have to ensure that:

• You are an admin for the integration. If you are not, you can have an admin invite you to be a member of the integration team.
• Your dev environment meets the requirements for running Platform CLI with the proper version of Node.js installed.
• You have installed the Platform CLI tool in your local environment and set up your authentication.

# install the CLI globally
npm install -g zapier-platform-cli

# setup auth to Zapier's platform with a deploy key
zapier-platform login

Downloading the source code

The steps to downloading the source code are:

1. Log in to the Platform UI and access the CLI integration for which you would like to get the source code.
2. On the sidebar, click on “Advanced”.
3. Go to the “View Source” section.
4. Click the “Download” button

Note that, after getting the source code, you would need to go into the directory and run npm install (or the equivalent for pnpm, yarn or bun) in order to install all the libraries needed for your integration. Then you can start making changes to the integration code, following our best practices.
