Creating Action input designer

Is there a faster/easier way to create the input designer of an action? Or do I have to manually enter each item that will need to be mapped?

Unselected option getting set as Empty

I have two dropdowns one for users and one for collections. Leaving Users dropdown blank set’s it to empty as in the image, but leaving collections doesn’t. The problem with Empty state is that it sends the data to webhook as array of empty string → [“”] . How can this be fixed so that it doesn’t set it to empty

How to allow mixed authentication types?

I’m working for a company that supports both types of authentication methods to users: Basic Auth and SSO. Is there a guide to create an integration that the authenciation can support both? Basically having the auth completed done on our website including the forms, so Zapier doesn't collect any username and password or api keys from the user on the start.I see this is done on some of the Zapier apps, such as the Salesforce premium.  Is there a guide for this?

How can JSON results be obtained when computing the output fields?

I’m using zapier-cli to implement my own integration. In some particular triggers and actions, the field keys are dynamic and non-human-readable. Because of that, I’m using outputFields to provide friendly labels that map to those fields.However, when I trigger the outputFields call I have to use bundle.inputData meaning I need to re-execute what I did in the perform step again.Is it possible to have the JSON result obtained from the perform step available when I want to compute the outputFields? That way I can only add labels to what was responded from the previous step. For instance, I have a search/find action that looks like this:{...perform: actionService.searchChecklist,outputFields: [outputFieldsService.getOutputFields],...} So basically here I want getOutputFields to use what was returned by searchChecklist Thanks in advance!

Why We Need A Google Classroom Integration

I’m currently a student, and I’m here to showcase my argument as to why we need a google classroom integration.  We don’t. What a plot twist. You didn’t expect that, didn’t you. But disregarding that fact, it would be awesome if there would be a google classroom integration. That way, if the teachers upload a material, it would automatically sync up with notion or clickup and go to the subject’s resources folder. Or if there is an assignment uploaded the same thing happens and it would end up in the subject’s assignments folder. An announcement? Same thing. And if your college or school is one of the few and plots the lectures or timetable within google classroom, you can set up a zap. And guess what, it will automatically sync up with your calendars.The keyword here is efficiency. It would be waaaaaaaaaaaay more efficient to have a google classroom integration for students than not. Bye!

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.

It should resemble:\n`-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\n...\n-----END CERTIFICATE-----`', }, { computed: false, key: 'private_key', required: true, label: 'Private Key', type: 'string', helpText: 'Copy the contents of the private-key file. It should resemble:\n\n`-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----\n...\n-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----`', },Assuming that a user pasted the value into the field:-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----REDACTED-----END CERTIFICATE-----How would line breaks be represented in bundle.authData.certificate and bundle.authData.private_key?

Managing multiple social media accounts of different clients

Hello! We offer a lead generation service to thousands of clients. They can manage them through our lead management system. However, many have asked us to also manage - using the our admin panel - the leads they generate thanks to their social media accounts/campaigns.I know I can connect my admin with FB/IG/TW etc using my Zapier account. What I was wondering is if Zapier has a way I can use the integration power to offer my clients to connect their SM accounts with my admin so they view all those leads in one place (they don’t need nor want their own Zapier accounts).

Session Auth Refresh

So we have a session based auth, that needs to refresh a token (much like OAuth, but it’s not an OAuth flow).  Authentication works fine, and my assumption was that the authentication function would also be called when a 401 is raised from any creates or triggers (which we can handle), and the call would be tried again.  In standing up a test, it doesn’t appear it does.  The middleware beforeRequest gets called, throwForStatus throws a RefreshAuthError as expected, but the Zapier stack does not call our authorize function.  Even with skipThrowForStatus = true set on the request, the afterResponse never gets called as the RefreshAuthError isn’t caught.  Struggling to understand how are we supposed to refresh given this scenario?As a side note, we’re converting from a Legacy Web app that uses session auth.  In that, per Zapier scripting documentation, the get_session_info auth function “will be called when your API returns a 401 or when you raise an InvalidSessionException .”  So the exp

How much actually Triggers/Actions required for First Launch (5 or 2-3)?

hi,I’m planning to build an Integration for the First launch and checking this doc which stateshttps://platform.zapier.com/partners/lifecycle-planningWe recommend your Zapier integration have no more than 5 of each (trigger, action, or search) at first; we suggest starting with your most popular 2-3 use cases. so do I’ve to go with 5 triggers and then 5 actions and with 5 searches. or I can Launch the app with following points: 1- Triggers: we can go with Launch with (2 or 3) triggers2- Actions: we can go with Launch with (2 or 3) actions3- Searches: This is optional (we can skip in first Launch as this is an advanced)

How to set up a polling trigger with API parameter changedSince

Hi,I’m creating a Zapier integration with a REST API that offers a possibility to poll new/changed data with an api parameter changedSince. The changedSince parameter accepts a datetime value. The endpoint being for example get ‘{baseUrl}/projects?changedSince=YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ssZ’I would like to create a trigger which polls this api endpoint but how could I set the changedSince to be the datetime of the previous zap run?Zapier deduper instructions assume that the api returns everything like get ‘{baseUrl}/projects’ and then the data is sorted to display newest on top, but this API does not offer a possibility to sort the data.Does anyone have any good / helpful ideas on how to create a trigger with this endpoint where changedSince value would be the datetime of the previous zap run? Can I catch the previous run timestamp somehow?
