Send Measured Bid leads to Jobber
There's no Measured Bid app for Jobber yet. The simplest link is Zapier: Measured Bid posts each lead to a Zap, and the Zap creates the client and a request in Jobber. You can also send homeowners to your Jobber request form after they see their price.
Set it up in Zapier
You need a Measured Bid widget, a paid Zapier plan and a Jobber account you can connect to Zapier.
Start a Zap with Catch Hook
In Zapier, create a Zap. For the trigger, pick Webhooks by Zapier and the Catch Hook event. Copy the webhook URL.
Paste it into Measured Bid
Open your widget's settings, find New-lead alerts and paste the URL into Webhook. Save.
Send a test lead
Open your homeowner link, get a price for an address and send the form. It counts as one estimate. In Zapier, click Test trigger and pick the lead.
Find or create the client
Add Jobber's Find or Create Client action. Search by phone or email. Each lead already has the name and address in separate fields, so map firstName, lastName, street, city, state and zip straight to Jobber's fields.
Create the request
Add Jobber's Create Request action for that client. Put the trade and the range in the title. Jobber files the request under the client's first property. Add Note to Request can carry the source and the best time to visit.
Field mapping
How the sample lead fills Jobber's fields. Every field in the lead is listed on the Zapier page.
| Jobber field | From the lead | Sample value |
|---|---|---|
| First Name, Last Name | firstName and lastName | Jordan Example |
| Phone Number | phone | (916) 555-0114 |
| Email Address | email | jordan@example.com |
| Street 1, City, State, Zip | street, city, state and zip | 412 Sample Ridge Ct, Roseville, CA 95661 |
| Request title | service, estimateLow and estimateHigh | Gutters: $1,500 to $2,025 shown |
| Request note | utm and preferredTime | Source: google/cpc. Best time: Weekday mornings |
The webhook carries the contact details, the range, the trade and the source. The measured quantities are in the new-lead email. The lead in your dashboard has those, plus the homeowner's answers, the line-item dollars and the map of what was measured.
Or use your Jobber request form
No Zapier needed. The homeowner fills in your Jobber form after they see their price.
- In Jobber, copy the link to your online request form.
- In Measured Bid, paste it into the widget's settings under Booking link and save.
- After a homeowner sends their details, the widget shows Pick a time now, which opens your form in a new tab.
- They type their details again in Jobber's form. The lead is still saved in Measured Bid with the measurements.

FAQ
Is there a Jobber app for Measured Bid?
Not yet. Leads reach Jobber through Zapier, using Jobber's own Zapier app. You build the Zap once.
Do I need a paid Zapier plan?
Yes. The Catch Hook trigger is part of Webhooks by Zapier, which Zapier offers on its paid plans. Check Zapier's plans page for current prices.
Can I skip Zapier?
Yes, with the booking link. Set your Jobber request form as the widget's booking link, and homeowners can open it right after they send their details. They fill in Jobber's form themselves, so their details aren't copied over.
Will Jobber show the measurements?
Not through the webhook. Jobber gets the contact, the address, the range and the source. The measurements are on the lead in your Measured Bid dashboard and in the new-lead email.
What if the client already exists in Jobber?
Use Find or Create Client and search by phone or email. Zapier uses the client it finds instead of making a duplicate.
