Using Webhooks to fill out customer jobber request form

Hi ​@TrashCanMan5 

For us to have more info about what you are referring to post screenshots with how your Zap steps are outlined and configure along with including links to the API endpoint documentation you are referencing to configure the API request.

Hey ​@Troy Tessalone 

I don’t have a current Zap set up because I keep getting stuck and starting over, trying new things. And I believe this is what you would be asking for with the API, correct?

type Request {
  id: EncodedId! # The unique identifier

Where did you get that screenshot from?

Link to the API endpoint documentation for us to review.

The screenshot is from Jobber’s API page.

Have you tried using this Zap action?

Zap action: Jobber - Create Request

Can you explain more about what you are trying to do that is not possible via that Zap action.

Best to outline a specific example for us to have context.

Helpful to include screenshots from within Jobber to what you are trying to achieve.

Yes, that Zap seems to only allow mapping for generic information and only works if a client is created. 

I have a request form with custom questions that I’m looking to have Mapped in integration with Google Sheets, So that the information that is on the Google Sheet is used to fill out a new form. I hope I’m Making sense.

Using app APIs in Zaps is an advanced approach involving technical concepts.

TIP: Try asking ChatGPT for help with how to configure a Jobber API request to create or update a Jobber Request with custom fields.

Hey ​@TrashCanMan5,

You will have to use Webhooks in Zapier to query the Jobber API. Here is a helpful article about Webhooks in Zapier- https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496326446989-Send-webhooks-in-Zaps
