# AgencyZoom Create Lead

> Creates a personal-lines lead in AgencyZoom and returns the new lead's id.

The Create Lead node adds a new personal-lines lead to AgencyZoom. Only a first
name, a pipeline, and a stage are required; everything else is optional. You can
set contact details, an address, key dates, a lead source, and who the lead is
assigned to. For a commercial lead, use
[Create Business Lead](/platform/workflows/node-reference/integrations/agencyzoom/agency-zoom-create-business-lead)
instead.

## When to use it

* A web form, landing page, or ad brings in a new prospect and you want them in
  AgencyZoom right away.
* You want every new lead to land in the right pipeline and stage without anyone
  typing it in by hand.
* You want a new lead assigned to a producer, a CSR, or an assignment group as soon
  as it is created.

## Inputs

The fields are grouped in the node's settings. Required fields are marked.

Pipeline, Stage, Lead source, Assign to, CSR, Assignment group, the other producer
and CSR rows, and Custom fields are dropdowns filled from your own AgencyZoom
account, so you pick by name rather than looking up ids. Once you choose a pipeline,
the Stage list narrows to that pipeline's stages.

Any field can also be an
[expression](/platform/workflows/core-concepts/expressions/using-expressions-in-nodes) that reads from
an earlier step, such as the email a form submitted. On a dropdown field, switch
from **Select** to **Variable** to write one. An expression for an id field, such
as Pipeline or Assign to, must produce the AgencyZoom id number.

## Outputs

On success the node returns a confirmation that the lead was created, including the
new lead's id. Use that id in later steps, for example to add a note with
[Add Lead Note](/platform/workflows/node-reference/integrations/agencyzoom/agency-zoom-add-lead-note)
or to link a task with
[Create Task](/platform/workflows/node-reference/integrations/agencyzoom/agency-zoom-create-task).

## Example

Chen Insurance Group runs a quote form on its website. When Sarah Chen submits it,
a workflow uses Create Lead with her first name, last name, email, and phone from
the form. It picks the "Personal Lines" pipeline and the "New Lead" stage, sets the
lead source to "Website", and assigns the lead to Marcus Johnson. The lead appears
in Marcus's AgencyZoom pipeline within seconds of the form being submitted.

> **Note**
>
> Assign to, CSR, and Assignment group are three separate ways to assign a lead. You
> can use any of them, or none; a lead with none is created unassigned. Leave a
> dropdown empty when you do not need it.

> **Note**

> it with a [Check](/platform/workflows/node-reference/logic-and-flow/check) or
> [Conditional](/platform/workflows/node-reference/logic-and-flow/conditional) to
> handle a lead that was not created.
