The zapier CLI utility on zapier test shows in integration checks result the cd C001 for one of the results and links to https://platform.zapier.com/docs/integration-checks-reference#C001 .Unfortunately the documentation does not shed any light on this code C001 - what does it represent?

How to handle many new items between 2 Zaper requests

Hi everyone.Developing a zapier integraiton that consumes an GraphQl API, using cursor based pagination. I have a hard time wrapping my head around the following scenario, and I hope you can help clarify.Let’s say that the Zapier API sends a request every 15 minutes, and asks for a list of actions. The API responds with the latest 20 actions (i.e. page-size=20).Simple scenario - one new actionIn between 2 requests, a new action was returned by the API. Zapier correctly identifies this a new action, and the trigger fires away.Advanced scenario - 25 new actionsIn between 2 requests, 25 new actions are created. I somehow need to tell Zapier that we need to make another request. When I get the new response, I must inform Zapier that here we recognize an Id already processed. How is the above accomplished in Zapier?

Send body with GET using z.request

I'm making an integration for the intouch api in Zapier. For some reason, the API is set up to receive queries in the body of the GET requests, rather than in the parameters.This is all working in Postman but it seems that the z.request function ignores a body option attribute with GET requests.Here is my code:const test = (z, bundle) => { const query = { matterGuid: "bf508fcf-5f36-4191-93d6-fecd5a7f6a04", getFields: ["matter.reference"], }; return z.request({ method: "GET", url: baseUrl + "/matters", body: JSON.stringify(query), //I've tried body, json, raw, data, etc });};And here is the response I receive:{ status: 400, json: { message: 'No request data received', success: false, errors: [] }, data: { message: 'No request data received', success: false, errors: [] }, content: '{"message":"No request data received","success":false,"errors":[]}', request: { method: 'GET', headers: { 'user-agent': 'Zapier',

Recommended way, REST hooks vs pagination?

I’m developing a Zapier integration against an underlying Graphql API using cursor based pagination.What is the recommended way to build my triggers;Using polling, and implement some js code to “support” cursor based pagination - any links on how to do this? Using REST hooks. I looked at one of the Github repositories, and it seems like it’s not super active - are REST hooks preferred over polling or?Thanks for helping me out :)

Setting Up Authentication for Help Scout's Mailbox API 2.0

Zapier builder/CLI: Poll-based trigger on update/edit for API without timestamp

I’m creating an integration for WorkflowMax, and would like to create a “job updated” trigger.The WorkflowMax API does not provide webhooks, so a poll-based trigger is needed. The API also does not provide timestamps for when jobs were created or updated, which makes things pretty interesting.In this situation, what would be the best way to create a trigger that fires whenever jobs are updated? Options I can think of:Use middleware to store polled data Create a more limited trigger that checks a single field for updates - for eg “job status updated” trigger Anything else you can think of??? Use middleware to store polled dataHere’s a possible recipe for Zapier CLI that I haven’t tried yet.At each polling interval, send a get request to the API endpoint that we’re looking for updates on Send the API response data to some other service to store it. Pipedream might be a good option to store data (thanks @ForYourIT for the inspiration!) When the next polling interval comes around, retrieve

Splitting text giving me more outputs

Hey everyone,So I formatted a line that comes in when someones registers for camp on shopify. I seperate with a “,” and only want the name of the camp. But using the split, it gives me two outputs. But, I only want the first. Even though I configure that step by asking only the first segment. When using the action ‘send to google sheet’ it still gives me both values (output 1 & 2) separated with a “,”. I don’t understand why this is happening.

When I connect a new account, it's already logged in

Hi Zapier. I’m in the process of developing a Zapier integration, and have a small issue. Everytime I try to connect a new account (when building a test-zap) - I use this button “Connect a new account”: Then for a short period of time, this window appears: And if I’m already logged in, the window closes again!To fix this, I can create new accounts in Incognito window - but is it possilbe to set-up the oAuth flow so that it does auto-log in to the already connected account (so the button can work as intended)?

How can I add user email on the authenticated account, "Connection Label" does not work ?

I’m working on developing a Zapier integration, and have a question regarding the “connection label”. I read through the docs here, but I can’t seem to get it to work (so it displays the users email). Currently I have this in the connection label:{{bundle.inputData["https://21risk.com/email"]}}I would expect this to display the email of the authenticated user, based on this response from my test API call:{ "https://21risk.com/email": "ab@21risk.com",} But I don’t see anything here:Did I misunderstand something from the documentation here?

More than one level of nested data, is it possible?

I’m trying to configure my Zapier app to support sending a payload such as:{ "data": { "obj_id": { "text": "Foobar" } }}Looking at https://zapier.github.io/zapier-platform-schema/build/schema.html#fieldschema I figured the above would be possible by defining the following schema:{ "children": [ { "children": [ { "key": "text", "label": "Text", "type": "string" } ], "key": "obj_id", "label": "Object Title" } ], "key": "data", "label": "Data"}However, this doesn’t seem to work. Any ideas on whether what I’m trying to accomplish is possible?

Using Application Passwords for Authentication to WordPress REST API

I have created a new app on Zapier and need to set authentication. Authentication will be to a users own WordPress website, using a username and application password combo. I therefore need to capture the users own WordPress URL via an input field, as well as their username and application password.Basic Auth works when I test but as I cannot define custom input fields, I can only authenticate against a pre-defined WordPress site - no good to me as users will have their own URL and website which they need to authenticate against.Which authentication method is best for me to use and display the required input fields (URL, Username, Password)? And then how do I put the username and password entries into the header so that WordPress recognises them and authenticates?
