"Load More" in performList

When setting up.a zap trigger,  if user clicks “load more” in the trigger sample data , the `bundle.meta.page` gotten in performList is always 0. It doesnt increment. So additional records are never fetched. What is the purpose of the “load more” button? And how do I load additional records in sample data?

Share user auth between apps

Hi all. I would like to know if it’s possible to share bundle.authData between zapier apps?  User logs into the first app when setting up the trigger, then use those details when setting up the action, in another app. Thanks.

How to auto import the authorization token in the http header?

I am using zapier api key authentication. Now I want to pass the respective authorization key in the http header for every user who connects their account. I tried to use ‘Bearer {{process.inputData.token}}’. It’s not working. How do I do that?

Unable to fetch refresh token: invalid_grant.

What should happen when Zapier receives an ‘invalid_grant’ reply from the authorisation server when it asks to refresh token?  It seems to me that in my attempt at inegration it keeps asking using the same token and nothing ever gets reset.

3 users with a live Zap using this integration

To verify user demand, there should be at least 3 users who have a live Zap using this integration. "Live" means the Zaps are switched on with at least one successful Zap run in recent history. In that case, I don’t have any live zap accounts, also how can I switch the particular zap account, In trial period, the shared folder not showing in my dashboard so how can I overcome this taskplease let me know any suggestions

Posting Custom Fields to an API that expects key/value pairs

I have an Action that posts data to my API for my SaaS app. We’ve recently added a Custom Fields feature to our app, in which our users can define the key and field label.I obviously can’t put the key into the integration because my integration needs to work for all client instances. So looking for advice on the best approach to handle this.Should I create a Dynamic Field? Seems like I would need a new API endpoint to look up the custom field keys.Or is their an easier way to do this where my users can map data from the Trigger to custom fields in the zap?

Problems with Post request in nodejs (step Action Run Javascript)

I have tried in many ways to be able to send the parameters via querystring using the Run JavaScript action, if I test it outside of Zapier it works fine for me, and even through Postman ... at the other end of this request, there is a page php that you get for get 2 parameters ... please, if someone has already gone through this, I ask for your guidance, thank you. This is my zapier code:const http = require('http');const querystring = require('querystring');const parameters = {    url: inputData.varurl,    fn: inputData.varfn};const post_data =  querystring.stringify(parameters);const options = {    host: "XXXXXXXX.cl",    port: "80",    path: "/test.php",    method: "POST",  headers: {    'Content-Type': 'text/html; charset=UTF-8',    'Connection': 'keep-alive'  }}const request = http.request(options, (response) => {    // console.log(response.statusCode);});request.write(post_data);request.end();  output = {request: request};

Stale Auth triggers when it should refresh the session token

Hello everyone,I’m running into some trouble with polling triggers specifically and refreshing the token on Session Auth. Every hour the token expires and the server returns back a 401 error to Zapier. In most cases Zapier calls the Session Auth automatically and a new token is issued, however, if multiple polling triggers are set up and they each get 401 error codes then Zapier will throw a stale auth error and the user will have to re-connect their App again. I would like Zapier to not throw the Stale Auth error unless something changed on their account (i.e. Username or Password change).Below is a snippet of code that my polling trigger runs when it receives a response from the server. return z.request(options).then((response) => { //response.throwForStatus(); if (response.status === 401) { throw new z.errors.RefreshAuthError(); }I used response.throwForStatus(); initially and then decided to try z.errors.RefreshAuthError(); if the response is a 401. However I’m sti

How to get the time of the last trigger poll?

Similar to another post from about a year ago (here), I’m wondering if there is a way, in a trigger function, to find out when the last poll for this trigger was done?  Without that, it’s not clear how to ensure that my API request returns all the latest data.  I can get an arbitrary amount of new data or get all the data from the beginning of time, but neither of those seems completely satisfying.Thanks in advance.-Mark

Upper limit on length of array in API response?

While building the “trigger” part of a Zapier integration, I am sending an array of objects being developed on fly using the DB layer behind the back-end API. But I don’t want to send a huge array covering all the rows of a particular table (say recipes), What I understand Zapier expects the array of  ~ 25 objects (got this number from a video by Zapier’s Engineering Manager) and it will figure out the new entries and accordingly will trigger the “trigger”. But this raises the question what if we have more than 25 or may be 100s of objects being added between 2 polls of Zapier, how to handle such situation?Should I keep track of the id number to which we have submitted to Zapier and send array of objects only beyond that id? If this is the recommended practice what can be good architecture philosophy to implement the same, I mean what are the best practices to do this?I would like to know the brief architecture of the Zapier, particularly the trigger part so that we can plan the integr

Extract Data From Zendesk Ticket (email) using a start and end tag

The end goal is to use a start and end tag to put around content dynamically entered by a user in a form and extract that to a field in Zendesk.  The data coming into Zendesk will look like this: Employee Name: !employee_name_start!John Smith Testing!employee_name_end! The tags are hidden via html 0 size font but are around the dynamically entered content from the user (John Smith Testing). I want to look for the start tag and grab all data between it and the end tag. I have also tried the code below:  import rem = re.search('!employee_name_start!(.+?)!employee_name_end!', Description) if m: found = m.group(1) My goal is that it will go through the description field (as shown in pic) and look for a starting tag of !employee_name_start! And an ending tag of !employee_name_end! And return whatever is in the middle (.+?) which would be the employees name in this case. My actual description field contains this in it:

Got a non-object result in the array

Hello, I am trying a REST based API integration via Zapier and by sending a request I received an error, warning me that I must imperatively receive an array as a return type; after changing the type returned to zapier code mode, I received a new error stating that I got non-object result in the array!It seems that the Zapier system is having some difficulty in interpreting the contents of the array as objects, how can I deal with this problem.
