Integration is missing a trigger

Hi,So we use the “Resource Guru” integration, but it only has triggers for “New or Updated” items, but its missing a trigger for “Deleted” items. I know Resource Guru sends the webhook, but Zapier doesn’t catch it.When I ask Resource Guru about this, they point me to their native notification system. Does that mean that the integration was developed by a Zapier team? If so, how do I request that they add a “Deleted” Trigger? Thanks!

HI There, I am wondering if I could get some help! I am using Zapier to hook up Jotform submission to my ZohoBooks account.. I am getting this error: however these are my settings: I think a possible issue is that i have in jotform and in ZohoBooks set the dates to be in the format DD-MM-YYYY but Zapier changes it to MM-DD_YYYY and therefore it all gets a bit jumpled up and error reported.any help would be great!

How to run a Sub-Zap only once after trigger "New or Updated Spreadsheet Row in Google Sheets"?

I have a zap which does the following:(Trigger: New or Updated Spreadsheet Row in Google Sheets): I manually copy and paste many rows into a specific Google worksheet. Each row represents an inventory product. A Sub-Zap is called which looks to Sheets to find an existing Oauth token to check whether it is expired. If it is expired, it generates a new Oauth token. If it is not expired, the Sub-Zap ends. Goes through 3 separate zaps to add the product to ebay (ebay API requires three separate calls to create a product). The problem is that the Sub Zap runs once for each new row added. The Sub-Zap has several steps, so this adds multiple Tasks for each row (product) added. However, I really only need to run this Sub-Zap one time; to either grab the existing unexpired Oauth token from Google Sheets, or to generate a new Oauth token if it is expired. How can I run the Sub-Zap only once and then pass the Oauth token to the rest of my zap for each row (product) added? Rather than run it on

Reading Emojis in File

Hello! I am trying to build an RSS item that pulls text from a file in Google Drive. I used the Webhook as described in another help article, but there’s a small issue. My text file includes an emoji on each line. (It’s a list of upcoming sports events and each line has the corresponding emoji to make it easy to see at a glance.) When I pull the text, I get gibberish for the emojis. Is there a way around this?

Failed to create HTTP request to Sharepoint; 'Domain did not expected domain filter'

Running into an issue creating a custom API request Action when interacting with Sharepoint. I’m trying to use the Microsoft Graph API to create a new list item in Sharepoint when a new form is submitted to our website.I’ve tried my request using Microsoft Graph Explorer and can confirm that my request body is valid. I suspect the issue is something with the authentication but Zapier does not expose the true error. Instead I get this generic ‘Domain did not match expected domain filter’. I’ve double checked that my domain is accurate. Has anyone gotten the API request Action to work with Sharepoint?

Zapier Webhook validation with Zoom not working

I’m not able to validate the endpoint URL from the zap I had originally set up to capture participants joining a meeting. Edit: Nevermind, it appears to be working now!Hi there, I saw this was meant to be fixed as noted above, however I am still having this issue. Was this verified to be fixed? Like the other users noted I cannot get this to work. Did you do anything other than paste the Zapier webhook URL into the field and Validate it?

App Extensions and dynamic drop down values for Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM

I’m aware App Extensions is a new feature, but is there any documentation on being able to use the pre-defined triggers for dynamic drop downs in App Extensions. I can see the note around this on the App Extensions editor states:Note: dynamic dropdowns are powered by pre-defined app triggers and therefore not all API data objects are supported. Example: channel.id refers to Slack Channel Ids returned from the Slack TriggerUsing Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM as an example, let’s say I want to build an App Extension that is similar to the Create Lead action from the public app but the body data is customised because the payload data needs to be modified for our CRM environment in order to successfully send the data. Can I utilise dynamic drop downs like the Create Lead action does on fields like Boolean, Picklist, Lookup etc?Is there any documentation on the pre-defined app triggers for public apps or will there be?

PandaDoc API functionality and complexity

Apologies, I’m new to API requests so the below questions may have some obvious answers.My business creates a large number of documents for signature. Each document is unique to the client and is first generated using document automation (i.e. an online form and Google Docs).This variation in the documents means templates are inappropriate.Equally, the volume means use of the PandaDoc UI to drop in signature fields etc is inefficient.Is it possible to run an API request through Zapier to ‘Zap’ the document from Google Docs (or more accurately Google Drive) to PandaDoc and have that app send it for signature to the recipient? Does an API have this functionality? Perhaps this depends on the particulars of PandaDoc, but I thought I would ask in case the anyone here knows the answer. Is such a request complex and if so, would you recommend hiring a specialist? I have only a basic understanding of APIs (as this question suggests).Any help, much appreciated.

Facebook Conversions Events From Stripe Not Reflected In Ads Manager

We are selling our SAAS through stripe, but the original domain is hosted through shopify, so our facebook pixel follows customer from Ad to domain, but then loses them when they click to begin their trial of the product which takes them to a checkout page on stripe.Our goal is that when a person becomes a “new subscriber” in stripe, which means they completed the checkout process and are given a 7 day free trial, this should report a “leads event” in facebook. And if or once that person is successfully billed and payment completed after the trial, that should trigger a “purchase event” in facebook. CHECKOUTmy.saitori.ai/c/...PAYMENT LINKSmy.saitori.ai/b/...Data Sources - Events: are showing purchases and leads, however they are not visible in ads manager, so we do not have any clarity which campaign, ad set and ad the lead/purchase came from.

Valid URL for Google Analytics API Request (beta)

I’m trying to use the Google Analytics 4 API Request feature on Zapier as the “Run Report for a property” feature doesn’t seem to tell you when there’s no data available and still goes through with the Zap and I’m unsure of how to stop the Zap from running if there is no data available for a specific time range. What is the correct URL format for GET request to show anything? I’ve been using the official GA4 documentation and using “property/PROPERTY_ID” only works when using their test feature on the official documentation site. One thing that I find confusing is having to use “https://analyticsdata.googleapis.com/v1/properties/” when on the official documentation it says “https://analyticsadmin.googleapis.com/v1/properties” and if I use “analyticsadmin” instead of “analyticsdata” I get this error: Any advice on a possible fix to the working “Run Report for a property” and pausing Zap if it shows: Or an example of a working URL on Zapier API would be really helpful.

Updating all Airtable records w/ data fetched periodically from API

Hey all! Been pulling my hair out for a while on this one and I’m curious if anyone else has managed to figure this out… Here’s the setup:• I’ve got a database in Airtable that features a set of YouTube user IDs/handles and an associated subscriber count for each ID.• I can get current values for subscriber count via Social Blade’s API (webhook) What I’d like to achieve, but can’t:• Run a zap every X interval (day or so?) that updates the subscriber count value in Airtable for ALL records in the sheet.I’ve managed to set up a Zap that will achieve the above, but only for a singular record. The data pipeline seems to work just fine, I just can’t figure out how to get it to loop over some version of this sequence:1) Grab the youtube handles/IDs from each record in the sheet2) Run the IDs through Social Blade’s statistics API endpoint (via webhook)3) Get updated subscriber count values for each handle/ID4) Update all records in airtable with the fetched/more recent valuesIf anybody can he

Ability to filter out specific field changes in Zap using WebHooks for Jira Service Management

I’m trying to create a Zap that only sends out a Slack message to a team when a particular custom field is updated.I have created the WebHook and am able to see lots of information, but no matter what I try, I am still getting messages sent out even if my required field hasn’t been updated.I’ve used the filtering tool to specify what each field should contain, but if a comment is added and the field in question hasn’t changed but matches the field in the filtering items, we still get a notification sent out. Is there a way that I can stop this happening?Thanks in advance ☺️
