Send SMS from List but Triggered from Calendar Event

Hi,I created a Zap that sends to a single recipient via SMS when a Google calendar entry is deleted or cancelled. That’s fine. I’m trying to use this same principle and same trigger, but have the workflow gather the small list of SMS recipients (say, from a Google sheet), and deliver the same variable-filled message (from the calendar event) via SMS. It seems like this would be a straightforward thing, but it’s not. Can anyone suggest a solution? I have a Twilio registered number.

Ninja Forms data issue

We are using Ninja forms to send data to Zapier, and then have Zapier creates an S3 text object based on the data. We noticed an issue where any value of "0" entered into the Ninja form is stored as a 0 within the form, but in Zapier the value is blank or "null". - screenshots attachedIs this a known issue, and/or related to the current (2/3/22) Zapier issues? https://status.zapier.com/incidents/4233n2mq04dmIn the attached screenshots, field values of both "0" and "blank" come through into Zapier as "blank", and this needs to be 0 to accurately reflect what was entered. This issue seems to have just started happening yesterday. We opened a support ticket with Zapier, but have not heard anything back yet.  Thanks,Chris

Webhook GET vs. Stripe Integration

Anyone know what the difference is between the Webhook action's GET event vs Custom Request event using the GET method?In particular, why would the two behave differently with the Stripe API?Using the Custom Request action event I am able to successfully process a GET method request to the Stripe API.Using the GET action event with the same URL and Secret Key, however, I get the following error msg:"The app returned: https://stripe.com/docs/error-codes#parameter-unknown""The request contains one or more unexpected parameters. Remove these and try again."What is the difference in parameters with the GET action and Custom Request GET method?I am not using any query parameters, nor any arguments in the zap other than the URL and key, i.e. the same parameters in the Custom Request w/a Get method The URL is Stripe's API, I'm using HTTPS, and the command works fine using cURL with the same secret key (either by the -u flag, or -H "Authorization: Bearer {secret_key}")curl https://api.stripe.c

Stripe Payout

Hi all,I have a Google Sheet which records Wocommerce store orders and payments.I am trying to figure out a way to have Stripe payouts marked off per order in GSheet when the payout is successful. I have setup a Webhook zap from Stripe to Zapier. However, the data received in the Stripe webhook trigger does not correspond to or match any data that is generated by the Woocommerce order.The IDs in the Stripe webhook are completely different to the the IDs in the Woocommerce order/payment trigger. Am I missing something here or is this not possible due to the limited data that comes out of a Stripe payout webhook?Thanks in advance,

Print labels via webhook?

Hi, I have a Zap set up with  Webhook trigger (POST request) and second step of Print with ezeep Blue. I am sending a PNG as the payload. This works great except I am trying to print small labels and they come out very large. Is there a way to set a custom print size for the output? None of the listed options are small enough.Alternatively, is there a way to send ZPL commands using ezeep Blue?

Consolidate duplicate fields and aggregate corresponding values as outputs

Troy Tessalone,Is there a way to identify unique specific fields and then aggregate their corresponding values for records with duplicate specified fields and output that sum with the respective specified field? I’m horrible at explaining things so below is an example.I have a Get request that pulls all records from a view in Airtable and below is a sample Test Action:records:     1:          id: rec1234567890          fields:               Username: Sam               Value: 1     2:           id: recasdg654896          fields:               Username: Bob               Value: 1     3:           id: recaga54asg64          fields:               Username: Sam               Value: 1     4:           id: rec987654135          fields:               Username: Sam               Value: 1Basically I would want it to output Username: Sam ; Value: 3 and Username: Bob ; Value: 1 because Sam is in there 3 times, each time with a Value of 1 and Bob is only in there 1 time with a value of 1.

Multiple custom webhook requests - JSON formatting

Hi, all - I’m working on a Notion integration for a client that requires me to pass a complex API GET call, modify the return payload, and then pass that modified result into a PATCH call. (I’m trying to collect the body of one Notion page, then append it to another).Initially, I thought about doing one Custom Request for the GET, a step to modify the return payload, then another Custom Request to PATCH. However, I need the solution to be scalable as the size/length of what the GET returns will vary significantly.I settled on trying to do the entire thing via a Custom Code (Python). Here’s what I have so far:source_id = input_data['source_id']destination_id = input_data['destination_id']headers = { 'Notion-Version': "2021-08-16", 'Authorization': "REDACTED", 'Content-Type': 'application/json'}get = requests.get(f"https://api.notion.com/v1/blocks/{source_id}/children", headers=headers).json()new_payload = {'children': get['results']}patch = requests.patch(f"https://api.notion.c

Calls returning data ID vs actual data

Hi, So I have an API call that I make to look to see who is scheduled. But instead of it it returning me the actual data, it returns me IDs. So when I really want to get Who: JohnStart Time: 09:00End Time: 12:00 Who: FredStart Time: 12:00End Time: 13:00etc Instead I get Who: 12355Start Time: 09:00End Time: 12:00  Who: 12356Start Time: 12:00End Time: 13:00etc Needless to say, to me, 12355 is meaningless to me as a human Thankfully I can call another API call that contains a reference of people and similar for places. So 12355 : John12356: Fredetc My questions is, how can I smash these together in Zapier? As what I want is the first thing, that tells me in English, who the person is!   I’ve made the zap work, by manually hard coding the data in the second API call myself using a lookup table.But this fails whenever we get new people added to the list.  I thought maybe I could dynamically populate the lookup table from the API, but I dont think this is possible? The other work around woul

Post webhook to Google Cloud function via HTTP request

When the new airtable record is created, zapier webook POST will send a json payload along with the CSV file to my google cloud function URL. The google cloud function has python code that will then manipulate the CSV file. When it is done, the updated CSV file and a confirmation will be sent back to airtable. Thanks. Matt

Nested ID

I am trying to integrate with the QuickBooks Time API, specifically with time off requests. The API docs are found here: https://tsheetsteam.github.io/api_docs/?java#retrieve-time-off-requests   Here is the code I have in Zapier. Note, I had to put a [] around the results to remove the “Results must be an array, got: object,” error.const options = { url: 'https://rest.tsheets.com/api/v1/time_off_requests', method: 'GET', headers: { 'Accept': 'application/json', 'Authorization': `Bearer ${bundle.authData.access_token}` }, params: { }}return z.request(options) .then((response) => { response.throwForStatus(); const results = response.json; // You can do any parsing you need for results here before returning them return [results]; }); Here is a typical output according to the API docs. Note this is sample data:{ "results": { "time_off_requests": { "1546922": { "id": 1546922, "user_id": 423, "time_off_request_notes": [96024],

Storage by Zapier Issue with clearing keys and values

Hi everyone,I have a very interesting use case that some others might have run into as well. The use case is for Hubspot contacts and deals and updating these in a third party app or other database. Here is the issue: There is no way to have a trigger that notices a change to hubspot associations. That is, if you change a contact associated with a deal - there is no trigger for that.A workaround I have created is to use the trigger ‘update on property change’ and use the property change ‘last modified time’. But now there are a LOT of triggers that are created. Every chat, conversation, email, phone call, everything is a trigger.So then I dealt with it in three parts:A trigger system that sends a webhook A catcher system that sorts and filters these triggers and passes on to the actual updater The updater that updates the database with all sorts of interesting things (looping through associated contacts to get their details and update them for example) but this is not a concern for the
