Hi @sachaevents

Welcome to the community! Can you give us some more details on where you're stuck. Details of error messages your seeing and/or screenshots of what you've got setup would be useful.

@sachaevents The example of the form is helpful, but we don't know where you are stuck in building the zap. Have you built the zap, and where are you stuck.


If you haven't built the zap yet, you could head here: https://zapier.com/apps/typeform/integrations/sellsy and change the two dropdowns to this:

If you already have tried that then we need screenshots of where you don't know what to do, or where you are stuck so we can better assist you.

@sachaevents a screenshot of the dropdown showing what your options are and including the field name, like this would help.

Hi @sachaevents! It would be great if you could take a screenshot of the Zap editor showing all the fields that you need for Sellsy. That will help us to understand which fields from the form you'll need to put where. Thanks!

@sachaevents that helps a lot!

So the first thing we need to fix/solve for you is "company" since company is a required field in Sellsy you need to first create/update, or search for a company via company name.

Screenshot 2020-01-20 14.52.14.pngScreenshot 2020-01-20 14.52.30.pngPersonally, I would try the Create/Update Company if you can (Sellsy needs an email address for the company, but you can use the person's email address and it'll create a new company for each person).


So your Step 2 (right after your trigger from Typeform) should be EITHER Create/Update Company OR Find Company.

The output of that step will feed into Step 3 which is "Create an Opportunity" in Sellsy. Specifically for the "Custom Value for Company ID" -- this will be a number (ID) which you will select from Step 2.

As for not having any sources you need to login to Sellsy and create a source (Your website, or the name of this form, or Zapier, etc) and then go back to Zapier, (might need to refresh fields to see the source as an option in the dropdown and then select that source.


And then you have this open field called "Brief" where you can put multiple values as well as plain text, what you see below would be similar.

Screenshot 2020-01-20 15.07.50.png

All you'd have different in yours is where I have the gmail "1. Date" use the plus symbol (below) to select the output from step 1 (Trigger step from Typeform)

Screen Shot 2020-01-20 at 3.05.27 PM.pngHopefully that will make more sense.

Now inside Sellsy you'll see the Brief and it will have all of the information you put in that field with the information the person put into the typeform.
