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

How to remove a tag in GetResponse

I have a Zap set up that I can add tags to Get Response contact based on a subscription. However, when the subscription changes, I want to be able to remove a tag from the contact.Currently, the only Zap options for Get Response are to Add tags. How can I set up code or some custom action to remove a tag? I’ve tried to use the AI prompt but I can’t seem to get it to perform properly.

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.

Unable to make post request

This is frustrating. So I need to make a POST request with a request body.In the request body I need to have a ‘request’ paramter key and the value is a json.The content type must be x-www-form-urlencoded. With the POST standard webhook, I cant choose the content type.With the custom request webhook, it does not seems to recognize ‘request’ as a parameter in the request body. How can I solve this.

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

Getting child attributes in JSON format to output through PUT request

I receive information via a form on Squarespace which then finds a contact in Wealthbox CRM (based data from that form), and through a webhook PUT request step, I am able to update single item fields (first name, email, etc.) within Wealthbox. HOWEVER, I cannot figure out how to enter the payload data in order to get items like an address with child attributes to update.  Since there may be a primary, mailing address, or business, I don’t know what I need to do differently to pick which one to update.Here is the API guide for Wealthbox: https://dev.wealthbox.com/?_gl=1*teaigl*_gcl_au*MTI2Nzg2OTkyLjE3MjI5ODIyNzU.#contacts-contact-putHere is a screenshot showing what the output fields are with the current sample data after testing (NOTE: the fields are already populated, but in my testing, the street_line_1 should read as Sample Address Line 1):And the information I enter (the payload field information is street_addresses[1][street_line_1]):I need some guidance on how to format the paylo

New line

I like to make Youtube-Webhook connections. And today, I wanted to make a new one.On the webhook part, after the JSON payload, in the Data section, in ‘content’, I wasn’t able to make a newline, either by \n or by pressing enter.Now all the information paired with ‘content’ appear on just one line. It also doesn’t work if I were to make a new ‘content’ entry, since apparently Discord doesn’t recognize ‘content_1’, let alone ‘content_2’.Back then, Zapier used to allow making a newline just by pressing the Enter key. IFTTT and Insomnia require typing in \n between lines.What can I do to be able to make new lines again?

How to use webhooks to post a request to an api

Good evening,I’m using notion to get status updates from a tracking number.A tracking number will be posted on notion, then Zapier needs to send a request to SHIP24 API to get back the tracking result and update my Notion table. https://docs.ship24.com/tracking-api-reference/#/operations/create-tracker-and-get-tracking-resultsAs far as i understand, the webhooks are only able to catch information but unable to post a payload to a specific URL.If you see any way to achieve what i’m trying to do, you are more than welcome! Thanks

Webhook keeps firing—what response should i send to avoid duplicate entries?

Hi there, So have a Zap that receives every transaction and then sends that transaction to a Webhook in Make.com that then puts it into my Notion database. The problem is that it fires the Webhook multiple times, probably (as what I'ge read on the internet) because the Zapier Webhook needs to get a verification that the Webhook was received. I tried a Webhook response with "200" but that didn't work. Does anyone know what I should do? Thanks!

Get request not filtering in zapier but works in postman

I’m sending a GET request to retrieve all invoices sent on a particular date. I’m receiving all invoices sent, ever. I tried this in Postman and successfully retrieved only invoices sent on a particular date.Why isn’t it working in Zapier?API Documentation: https://apidoc.payday.is/#7114bb47-1d43-41b5-a3cf-627018f3a83cHere are a couple of screenshots of my set-up.I’m confident about the date formatting because I literally copy/pasted it from Postman, where it workedAnd the results: notice the total of 409. This should retrieve only 2 invoices.The paid/unpaid amounts look huge until you realise it’s not in dollarsAnd a screenshot from Postman. Note the total: 2.
