About the Code & Webhooks Forum

If you’re asking a question in this category, it should be about the Code by Zapier app and/or the Webhooks by Zapier app.   If you’re not sure whether you can/should use one of those apps, it’s OK to ask that here. Chances are great that whoever responds will be able to properly advise you.FAQsI have a question about developing an app on the Zapier platform...can I ask about that here?For questions like that, please ask in the Developer Discussion forum. And to be clear, we’re talking about the Developer Platform, where you can build your own integration.Do you consider RegEx to be code? It’s pretty complex!Possibly in the future, but for right now this is solely for questions related to Code by Zapier and/or Webhooks by Zapier.What about Storage by Zapier? That feels sort of Code-y to me.See the response above. Maybe at some point we’ll expand, but for now it’s limited to the 2 apps mentioned.If I’m not sure if I need Code or Webhooks and ask in General Questions, what will happen?If

Internal server error - Webhook Get issue between Zapier et Captain Verify

Hello,Since several weeks and months, we have a issu on one of our zap. We have an message that indicates "The app returned "Internal Server Error" (HTTP Status Code: 500)". The aim of this Zap is to check if the email that our lead entered, is correct. So, when a lead arrives in our CRM, the Zap get in a Webhook the API via an URL from Captain Verify, and check the email. After checking, the information goes back in our CRM to indicate to our employee wether or not, the email is correct. The Zap worked well until several weeks or months. I don't understand why and what has changed. I already checked the trigger, the connection, the API and I'm also in contact with the support of Captain Verify, but they don’t really understand why it’s not working. Does anyone know what the problem is?Thank you!

Pyhthon connections between two steps breaks when published

I have a code that is pulling a zip file from a URL, downloading it and breaking apart pieces of it that I need.  I can get the zap to fully work for a test, but when I turn it on, the step between running two different pythons fails.  The output from step 6 I am trying to use in Step 7 but that connection breaks everytime it runs in real life.  This is an example output from Step 6 :  and then I am trying to use this input in Step 7 it all shows connected and again I can run a test through each step and it works.  But when I turn it on, Step 7 always fails when it runs triggered because it says the json_data is missing.  Can someone please help, or guide me to a previous discussion that addresses this?  Or to an expert who can help fix this connection between the two.

Multiple Zaps Using the Same Webhook URL?

Hey guys,I want to use Zapier to connect with CopeCart (is like clickbank, DigiStore24, etc.). I have several products, which I want to have connected to my e-mail marketing tool and add a tag, if a product have been sold.Actually I have 5 products and created for each product a zap. But, I guess this can be done easier, because I want to have all the sales in a google sheet, to track, which VSL and LP has sold how many products, etc.Usually the plattform should have this things integrated, but here it is not the case and I have to solve it with Zapier.So, is there a possbility, to use for all the zaps with products and google sheet zap, the same Zapier URL? So I have ONE Zapier IPN integration in the reseller plattform?Thank you in advance.

How to loop through paginated API response using Webhook to fetch all data?

Hi everyone, I need to extract all data from a provider through their Webhook API, but I'm facing an issue with pagination. The API returns a paginated response, meaning it only fetches 100 records per page. To retrieve assets from a specific page, I need to specify the page number in the API endpoint, like so: https://XXXXXX.com/assets.api?page=3This will fetch the assets from the third page. The total number of pages (19 in this case) is included in the API response.How can I create a loop to increment the page parameter in the URL and fetch data from all pages, until I have all records? Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance!

Update contact in Lead connector not updating

I am using the Ai message router to interpret the text from a chatbot in LeadConnector via Webhook, then route the customer into 3 separate routes, sales, tech support, or billing.After the Zi message router determines the route, I want it to add a tag to the contact in Go High Level (LeadConnector).  I have 3 paths set up.  If the message rute is billing, it will add the “billing” tag to the customer.  When I test the action, the tag is not added.

Nested Output Fields for Trigger: Output field X should appear and not be null

Hey!while building our app we encounter a bunch of publishing task that say “Required field "xy" should appear and not be null in latest task” as well as “Required field "xy" should appear and not› be null in the sample of Zap”. All fields listed in the tasks are nested tasks. We use the output definition described here. An exerpc of the output fields is:```          {            "key": "conversation__channel_id",            "label": "channel_id",            "required": true,            "type": "string",          },```both the trigger executions and the sample contain data for this field, e.g.:```          {            "conversation”: { “channel_id”: “xyz” }          },```but it seems like zapier does not expect nested but flat fields. The documentation clearly states that it's possible to define nested fields using the “__” and “[]” syntax. What am I missing here?

Filtering out records from an API request that contain "X"

I use a zapier webhook request to get back a dump of data via API.I have 10,000 recordds and within each record there is a field called “type” and a value called “unna A" or “unna C”. I have loopers set up that are correctly processing all the records individually and sending them to my system. It works, I am looking to refine it. This information back is parsed and mapped and then sent to another system via API.The problem I have is that in that first request I get a reply of say 12K records. Of those 12K records 10K of them I want to exclude from subsequent processing based on a text match identifier.There is a field in each record called “type” and a value called “unna" that is part of a word stem featured in the results I want to exclude from processing.IN other words all the records that contain the word “unna” need to be excluded.This will then leave 2K records which are relevant, which can then be processed by the following steps.Basically I want to filter out any records where

Webhook to Webflow Zap Works in Zapier Test but Fails After Publishing—What Am I Missing?

I am attempting to populate a collection in webflow via JSON end point URL. It looks like a simple enough Zap: I have put all the info in to zappier and when I test the app, it sends the test item to webflow and publishes it as expected. However after I publish, nothing happens! The remaining data (1000 items ) does not come through. I am new to this and my knowledge is patchy at best - I feel like I’m missing something really simple. Can anyone give me a steer in the right direction?

Stuck troubleshooting how to pass url utm values via webhook

I have spent hours trying to create a really simple zap that should have taken just minutes to set up. Perhaps someone can offer some guidance.I have a website landing page that a prospect accesses via a URL which carries UTM parameters. When they scroll 50% down the page a script is triggered which posts a message and UTM values to a zap webhook. The hook is processed, these values are added to a simple email which is then fired off. I see that the UTM parameters from the URL are accurately captured because the console log reports correct data:Data sent to Zapier: {"message":"User scrolled 50% of the page","utm_source":"mp","utm_medium":"email","utm_campaign":"em1","utm_id":"xxxxx","utm_term":null,"utm_content":"xxxxx"}But then few seconds later I see the CORS policy message:Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://hooks.zapier.com/hooks/catch/my-hook-id' from origin 'https://xxxxxxx.com' has been blocked by CORS policy: Request header field content-type is not allowed by Access-Control-A

Obtaining keys and values from webhook arrays

Hello!I’ve been browsing around for support and found this article: I’d love to reopen this discussion as the post has since been closed. I’m experience this issue as well but having no luck with the offered solution. The webhook data comes in like so:fields 1.   Data Name: ABC   Data Value: 1232.    Data Name: XYZ   Data Value: 456 When I go to use these values later on in the zap, they appear like this:Data Name: ABC, XYZ, etc.Data Value: 123, 456, etc. I tried the solution in the article linked above but it just returns ABC, XYZ *** 123, 456 instead of pairing the values back together as shown in the article solution example. I can’t utilize this data without pairing and splitting them into lines.  Any help would be appreciated.

How do i dehydrate a file?

Hello, So, to start off, I’ve tried using the steps indicated in this Zapier article to help my dehydrate my file, however it continues to return the same hydrated file as it’s output, as shown below. I received this file from a Sharepoint “New or Updated File” trigger, not sure if that has anything to do with my results; also, it’s an excel file. What I want this Zap to do, is every time there is an updated row in a table in this excel sheet (which is located on a custom Sharepoint site), I want it to copy onto another sheet, as well as send out emails to a specific set of people containing some of the information given in the new table row. The second half of this Zap is something I’ve done before so it shouldn’t be an issue, the only issue I have is the trigger, I can’t seem to find a way to connect the sheet properly since it is on a custom Sharepoint site. I’ve tried using an Excel trigger, but Sharepoint always shows up as blank.no files in sharepoint - excel trigger​​​​​​ Let me

Permission problems on Slack API

Hello Zapier team ! I am trying to use Beta feature of Slack integration to perform API requests with Slack API. The thing I try to do is to add a reaction to a specific message.However, when running the API call, I get the error from Slack that I don't have the permission to create a reaction to a message. I guess this permission is not asked when connecting to Slack by Zapier.Is there anyway I could add this permission manually? Any plan of adding this feature inside the core plateform? Thank you !Henri
