Cognito - OAuth v2 int

I'm setting up my app for the first time with private integration. As my app api is protected with Cognito user pool, I'm setting up OAuth v2 authentication against Cognito. I have configured a new app in Cognito with client_id, client_secret and zappier.com as an authorized redirect url. However, zapier is not able to connect to the app. It goes through the authorize step successfully showing the login screen and fails at the token step with the below error. Appreciate any help. This is time sensitive for a funding demo.{"status":400,"headers":{"content-type":"application/json;charset=UTF-8","retry-after":null},"content":"{\"error\":\"invalid_client\"}" Regardsvg

Building a Custom Connector to Netsuite: Netsuite wants 24+ length "state" param yet Zapier's is 23

I’m trying to build a custom OAuth2 Integration with Netsuite using the developer console.Netsuite’s documentation requires a “state” parameter in the OAuth urls that is between 24 and 1024 characters long.Zapier’s state parameter is… 23 characters long 🤦Is there anyone who has successfully integrated with Netsuite who may have encountered this? I was hoping there’d be a way to override Zapier’s state param but I’m not seeing a way. Otherwise, is there perhaps another known way to do the integration (please don’t tell me I have to build a custom OAuth1 app).

Error Authenticating WordPress

I get the following error when trying to connect WordPress to Zapier: https://prnt.sc/qV6140lFr2t0I’ve tried incognito mode in Chrome, and other browsers also - nothing to do with cache or machine used - error persists. I’ve checked below link but no solution there to fix this error.  I’ve updated Wordpress to the latest version, and the Zapier plugin to the latest version also. I have deactivated/activated the Zapier plugin in Wordpress but still getting the same error when trying to connect Wordpress to Zapier. Please note that I’ve also gone through links on the answer by Troy Tessalone and same error. Any input will be appreciated. Thanks.

Encryption mechanism of environment variables on zapier

I wish to store some sensitive data in the environment variables to use in authentication flow. I’d like to know how does zapier stores these variables? Are these in some kind of vault or if there’s any security layer that protects these? What is the encryption mechanism for storing these variables.

How do I create a custom Zenoti integration in Zapier to fetch all data after Klaviyo-Zenoti deprecation?

I am new to this stuff but I will try to be thorough. Klaviyo and Zenoti were working together to pass along everything from one platform to another. But coming September or something zenoti integration will be fully deprecated. Read:“After the Zenoti integration is fully deprecated, any data synced through the integration to your Klaviyo account will remain in your account, but no new data will be synced.” -https://klaviyohelp.notion.site/How-to-migrate-from-Zenoti-to-the-Zapier-integration-96d069f904164e1aa43ac871ec2fa035!--> This is inside Klaviyo>Metrics (Metric here: Appointment Group Status). Now if you look at the data array that is being fetched has all these properties that are usually needed. This is how it is right now until when Zenoti and Klaviyo will not be working together.   now we have to use Zapier to be the middleman between the two and Zapier already has a Zenoti integration available in their Zap builder.   But it doesn’t provide all the data properties that

Google My Business - OAuth v2 error

Hello,I’m trying to build an integration with Google My Business as I need to pass Language Code parameter, which is not supported in the default Zapier integration.I have an approved project in Google Cloud but I can’t connect Zapier. I’m new to API so I don’t really know anything besides what I find on the Internet and what ChatGPT suggests.So I generated OAuth Redirect URL  from Zapier and pasted it in my Google Cloud. I entered my Application credentials. I added the OAuth v2 Endpoint Configuration as:https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/authThen I filled the rest of the fields with what I researched on the internet and left the advanced settings as they were:I keep getting an error though:Could somebody kindly push me in the right direction? I’ve been trying to find a solution on my own but it’s really bugging me.

Credentials from previous nodes?

I am planning to write a node.js node that will access HubSpot API and LeadSquared API. both of them have connectors with accounts and actions that have authenticated and are used in previous steps in that Zap. How can I find the HS and LQ access credentials from those previous nodes in the node.js node of that Zap, rather than hardcode them into the node.js node? Or is there a better solution? Thanks, Thomas

Zapier redirect URL for OAuth returns 404 on Zapier

Hi team, I am working on setting up a Zapier integration using the OAuth v2 flow.After the user is successfully logged in on our app then the app redirects the user back to the Zapier OAuth redirect url e.g https://zapier.com/dashboard/auth/oauth/return/XXXCLIAPI/. However when the user is redirected to the mentioned Zapier OAuth redirect url with the authorization code appended, it throws a 404 error when it tries to open the Zapier page. I noticed this does not happen when I sign in and authorize with other apps. I also confirmed the redirect URI is the same on my end and Zapier’s end. Is it possible i am forgetting to include something, or perhaps the URL provided by Zapier has an issue?

How can I connect numerous clients to modules like YouTube through OAuth2 via Zapier?

Hello everyone,I am reaching out because, as a company, we have developed an automatic video generation system for real estate agencies.We now have a growing number of clients, and up until now, we have been manually connecting our clients to the YouTube, Facebook Pages, Instagram for Business, and other modules. We connected our clients to our Zapier account, which allowed them to create a connection.However, with the increasing number of clients, this method is no longer manageable for us.Is there a way to connect all these clients through OAuth2, for example? We could send a link to our clients, allowing them to authorize Zapier to interact with their YouTube account, and then we could retrieve the necessary tokens from our account to integrate the client into our workflow.Thank you in advance for your feedback. We have heard about Zapier Developer; could this be a solution?Looking forward to your response,Company.

zapier OAuth flow expires_int

does the OAuth 2.0 flow support expires_in for refresh tokens? It appears that Zapier doesn’t actually look at the expres_in field to determine if the accessToken is invalid - it instead calls the API so we need to return 401 to Zapier every time an access token goes bad. This seems like a security issue by making it more difficult to find real unauthorized attempts from bad actors.

Zapier not support refreshing refresh tokens in the OAuth flow?

It seems like a Zapier doesn’t fully implement the OAuth 2 flow, in regards to updating the refresh token. So the refresh token has to essentially live forever or you have to force customers to periodically update the refresh token? We’re returning the refresh_token in the auth token refresh request as specified in the OAuth standards but Zapier doesn’t actually use the refres_token in a subsequent response. Can anyone confirm if Zapier supports refreshing the refresh token in perhaps some other way without user interaction?    An example successful response:     HTTP/1.1 200 OK     Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8     Cache-Control: no-store     Pragma: no-cache     {       "access_token":"2YotnFZFEjr1zCsicMWpAA",       "token_type":"example",       "expires_in":3600,       "refresh_token":"tGzv3JOkF0XG5Qx2TlKWIA",       "example_parameter":"example_value"     }

Managing multiple connections OAuth2

 I’m prototyping a new Zapier integration. We want to allow customers to create multiple connections to our application using the OAuth 2.0 flow. We want to display the connections on our website similar to how Zapier displays connections under the app folder. However, we cannot tell the difference between when an OAuth 2.0 flow is initiated for creating a new connection or refreshing an existing connection. So if we had a list of a connections on our end we wouldn’t know if we should insert the connection into our database or update an existing connection. Is is possible to obtain a “connectionId” or configure Zapier to pass a connectionId or something similar whenever an OAuth 2.0 flow is initiated, either for the update an existing connection scenario or creating a new connection? Or is this not possible to do or against best practices to display multiple connections if there are.

Setting up AWS Cognito User Pool Authentication with Oauth V2 - Connection Expires

I'm building a zapier authentication with my application. My application uses aws cognito user pools for authentication so I connect with oauth v2. I correctly set up a client on my user pool to connect with Zapier. When I try to Test authentication with Zapier, the Zapier test authentication opens up the pop up to set up email and password and then closes it immediately and gives the message: "The account is expired. Please reconnect here". Upon clicking this the same thing happens. I've tried adding a new test account but the same thing happens and I'm not able to add any credentials. Looking at the http tab, I don't see any logs of requests made so I cannot figure out what the response from the authentication calls was.At one point I got the error "state" not found. I see that state is set by Zapier in the authorization url so I have no control over it.

Account expiring of oauth2 authentication randomly, it is asking for reconnect. 

We have built a custom integration, and for authentication, we are using OAuth v2. When trying to turn on the Zap that was turned off a day ago, I encountered the following error: "Error turning on account connection is stale, a Zapier issue." I checked the Zapier logs and monitoring page, but I didn't find any clues or errors related to this from our end. This happens randomly. I know we can make it work by reconnecting it, but I wanted to know the reason behind it. Can I know why it is getting expired randomly?
