How can I set the sample response to an array?

zapier validate returns errors that the same is not an object. I did not specify that the response is an object since it is an array. Is there somewhere to set sample response type=array? xxx.xxx.operation.sample │ is not of a type(s) object

Convert html to markdown using "code by zapier" (java or python)

Hello, I am transferring data from podio to clio (one crm to another crm) but when it goes through, it all looks like this: <p>example 1</p><p>example 2</p><p>example 3</p> I want it all to look like this: example 1example 2example 3 I know there is a function within zapier that allows me to change every single field manually (formatter by zapier), but this is not really viable because I am transferring over 100 fields of data over (so I’d have to manually input each one). I was told that if i use “code by zapier” I could insert some code and it would convert all the fields from html to markdown at once. Does anyone know how I would do this? It has an option to do this with python or java, but I don’t know which one makes more sense for this task. Thank you,Mike

Online scheduling automation project - 'Code by Zapier' JavaScript "output" error

Hi! I’m looking to automate an online scheduling service for my website. When the end user fills out the Google Form, I have the user select three date and time options. Then our team is to choose which would work best for us to then schedule this appointment based on that.I’m having the automation work based on the ‘emoji reaction’ my team reacts (one two or three emoji), the Zapier code should choose option one, two, or three) and update the Google Calendar’s new detailed event accordingly. Here’s what the Zapier flow currently looks like:1. Google Form submission (trigger)2. Send slack channel message with relevant Google Form details3. Delay (only run Monday-Friday at 9 AM) 4. Search for Slack message reaction of :one: emoji5. Search for Slack message reaction of :two: emoji6. Search for Slack message reaction of :three: emoji7.

The JSON output of a POST request can't be split. It comes clumped.

I have a zap that calls an API and fetches text from an interview. Each interview has different questions and each answer comes separate. See belo how you have questions 1 and question 2, each one with a different text value. The issue is that further steps after this don’t allow me to only pick the text from question 1…. or only pick the text from question 2… instead it takes everything and appends it together… See a further image below how there’s only 1 field allowed to pick from step 3…. and it includes all the text from question 1 AND question 2 appended. This is not what I want. I wanted to output text from q1 in one cell, and text from q2 in a different cell. The thing is… if the output was in JSON format I could use code blocks I think to parse and fetch the right info…. but even when I do that it is not working because it is as if the output from step 3. wasn’t properly formatted. Could someone help me? Thanks a lot.

Hi awesome community members, I’ve been working to create a custom API Request action to resubscribe a profile in the Klaviyo. The details of the API request on the Klaviyo’s developer documentation. I’m able to successfully make the requst and resubscribe a profile via the call made to the postman with same body and API headers, but when I tried testing this in Zapier, I got the following error: I’ve read through the troubleshooting API errors page, but didn’t find anything relevant.

Create line items based on nested key value pairs

Hello Zapier community, I am desperately looking for a solution for the following. We are obtaining data from a webhook that gives us an array. Most of the data can be easily mapped in following tags, however there a couple of key value pairs that we are able to map.The test data is showing us lead data and every specific lead has its om leadID. Under which we come across “extrainfoJson” which holds quite a number of key value pairs. To many unfortunately so that the file size becomes to large. Therefore we have looking into javascript in order to map the values. What I have came up with so far is: output = [{ "leadID": "leadID", "Naam": "Opmerkingen", "Key": "Inhoud", "Value": "Gegevens aangeboden voertuig", "line_items" : [ { "leadID": "leadID", "Naam": "Opmerkingen", "Key": "Inhoud", "Value": "Gegevens aangeboden voertuig" } ]}] I also tried line items into text but that won't do it with the key value pai

ReferenceError: fetch is not defined

Hi! I’m building an Action and trying to use `fetch` via code mode. However, when doing so I receive a “ReferenceError: fetch is not defined”. In doing some research, it appears that Node.js needs to be v18 in order to use this. Is this correct? Is there a workaround?const options = {method: 'GET', headers: {accept: 'application/json'}};fetch('https://api.portal.scanifly.com/api/v1/designs/', options) .then(response => response.json()) .then(response => console.log(response)) .catch(err => console.error(err));

HubSpot Error: Property values were not valid

I’m using code by Zapier to convert values from one system to HubSpot. As a result in the Code by Zapier step it returns a list value HubSpot_PracticeGroup. If there are values there they will show, otherwise it will be in the list of “Fields with no value:” when I map this field to HubSpot I get the error as shown when it runs. It doesn’t matter if the placeholder is null or empty.I checked to make sure there are no spaces in the HubSpot field as those can throw it off as well. This is also using the most up-to-date HubSpot version. In the common problems with HubSpot, this appears to happen when creating a new contact which I am doing, but there doesn’t appear to be a way to exclude blank or null properties. I’m at a loss and would like some guidance.

Trigger Custom Code Error: Invalid API Response: - Results must be an array, got: undefined, (undefined)

Hi! I’m looking for some assistance in troubleshooting the custom code I’m trying to write for a trigger I’m setting up. I’ve referenced the Zapier documentation and other posts similar to the situation here, here, and here. The solution for this situation appears to be wrapping the response as an array “[]”, however, that doesn’t seem to be working in my situation. Below is my code and error response. In the documentation for the API I’m trying to work with, the example request looks like this:const options = {method: 'GET', headers: {accept: 'application/json'}};fetch('https://api.portal.scanifly.com/api/v1/designs/63fbc6498b05fa000747513b?access_token=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx', options) .then(response => response.json()) .then(response => console.log(response)) .catch(err => console.error(err));When I run this code on npm.runkit.com/supertest I get the following results: Any thoughts on what I’m missing?

Create HTML file from string and pass it as a file to next steps

Hi, I have an application that generates an HTML code and pushes it through a webhook. On Zapier, I want to catch that hook, create a file from the received HTML code and pass it along as a file to the next steps (in most cases I will need to add it as an attachment to Airtable, but I might pass it to other apps downstream as well).I have tried to use Google Drive / Dropbox to create file from text content. But I cannot change the mime type of the file to HTML. I also failed to load the Google Drive file to Airtable from the provided Google Drive URL as it looses the filename in the process (which is odd). Either way I cannot use the file afterwards because of the wrong filename or wrong extension/mime type. This file will eventually reach SignRequest, which will convert the html file into pdf but only if it is interpreted as an html file (and not txt).In the end of the day, creating a file on a temporary Google Drive folder, changing its mime and getting it back seems to be an unneces

The data as it come in is getting passed into the Raw Body field. I am needing to get the email from this data so that I can then use it to send an email thru Zapier. All the parse code that I have tried is not working and I keep getting a JSON error. Once i have it parsed - I realized I don’t have a data field to use to add to the email Zapier option.Is there any examples of how to parse this data and save it to a zapier data field so I can use it in an email?

Is there any way to view the API Request Code behind a predefined (Not custom coded) Zapier Integration?

I am working on integrating a bunch of systems together using Zapier and Zoho Flow. I am trying to use Zoho Forms (a web form service) to automatically create a service request in AgencyZoom (an insurance-specific CRM) when a form is filled out. AgencyZoom has documentation for their API here. Sadly, their documentation does not list an API call to create a "service request." However, Zapier has an integration with AgencyZoom that allows the "action" of creating a service request through, I assume, an API call in the background. Now, it might seem my problem is solved, however, Zapier's Zoho Forms integration triggers are not "instant," meaning they may take up to 15 minutes (at best 2 minutes, with more expensive subscriptions) to pull all the form submissions and create service requests in AgencyZoom. Our use case requires that this happen immediately, upon the submission of a form.So, I am at a standstill; I can't connect the apps with Zapier because it is not instant and I can't cr

Newb trying to learn webhooks for Onfleet

Forget the title for a moment. I’ll describe my goals instead of what I think is my solution. I own a courier service that delivers various things (flowers, medicine, restaurant food etc). I want to give my clients email updates on delivery progress for the sake of good communication as well as for transparency on delivery timing performance. However, based on which type of client/ product, I want the updates to be triggered at different stages of the route and, ideally, to say different things. For example, when we are picking up a food delivery, I want the restaurant notified when driver is eg. 7 minutes from arriving for pick up (some temperature sensitive food items aren’t cooked until the last minute). On the other hand, a florist doesn’t need an update for “almost there for pick up”. It has no value to them. (Onfleet has all the different “stages” of a delivery as usable triggers)I’m using google sheets to “feed” my onfleet dashboard. (successfully set that up with Zapier as of y
