Templates

Ready-made ideas.

New order placed Look up zone → warn if incompatible

Verify plant compatibility on orders

Look up the customer's hardiness zone on each WooCommerce order. Warn if their zone and tempRange are outside the plant's survival range.

New customer registered Look up zone → save zone and tempRange

Enrich customer profiles with zone data

When a new WooCommerce customer registers, look up their hardiness zone and save the zone, tempRange, and zoneTitle to their profile.

Setup

Connect it in a few steps.

Set up with Zapier

1
Set the trigger. Create a Zap with WooCommerce as the trigger app and "New order" as the event. Connect your account.
2
Add the API action. Add APIVerve as the action, select the Hardiness Zone API, and map your trigger data to the request.
3
Send it back. Add a second WooCommerce action for "Create order" and map the returned fields (like zipCode) into it.
4
Test & turn on. Test the Zap with real data to confirm the mapping, then turn it on.

Set up with Make

1
Add the trigger. Create a scenario and add a WooCommerce module set to "New order". Authenticate your account.
2
Call the API. Add an HTTP module pointing at api.apiverve.com/v1/hardinesszone with your x-api-key header. Pass the trigger's data as the input.
3
Parse & map. Add a JSON module to read the response, then a WooCommerce module for "Create order". Map fields like data.zipCode into place.
4
Activate. Run once to confirm the mapping, then switch the scenario on and set its schedule.

Set up with n8n

1
Add the trigger node. Start a workflow with a WooCommerce trigger node for "New order" and connect your credentials.
2
Add an HTTP Request node. Point it at api.apiverve.com/v1/hardinesszone using Header Auth (x-api-key). Feed in the trigger data.
3
Map with expressions. Add a WooCommerce node for "Create order" and reference the response with expressions such as {{ $json.data.zipCode }}.
4
Execute & activate. Execute manually to verify, then activate the workflow for production.
