About the Developer Discussion forum

Welcome! The Developer area of the Zapier community is a place for dev-to-dev discussion about connecting your API to the Zapier Platform, and integrating Zapier into your product with our Partner API and embed SDK. Bring your questions as you get started with our developer tools, building and testing your integration. Share your expertise as a Zapier developer by answering questions and sharing your tips. While Zapier engineers will certainly be hanging out here and participating in conversations, this forum is driven by community participation. When you ask questions here be sure to share enough context so that another developer without access to the private details of your account can provide an answer that’s generally applicable to other developers with the same question. So when should you ask a question here, and when should you contact Zapier support? Great questions for this community: “How can I do ____ with the Zapier developer tools?” For example, “use my GraphQL API to buil

The output array of objects from the line item returns with a length of 4, but in dynamic mapping, only two objects are available.

Hi, It looks like Google Sheets returns multiple rows in the lookup, and I used Code by Zapier to create objects from the line items. For example, the sheet returns 4 rows, and Code by Zapier correctly returns 4 objects. However, when trying to map them dynamically, only two objects are appearing. Here’s the returned data from Code by Zapier: While mapping, only these two objects are available: Can anyone please help with this? Thanks!

Having Issues Cancelling Calendly Events

Hi Everyone, I’m trying to create a zap that triggers when someone create a Calendly meeting. The zap has two paths based on the answers they provide on the Calendly form. The path will either create the deal in Hubspot or cancel the event. The paths are working but when I try to “Cancel Scheduled Event” I keep getting errors. My guess is that the Event ID/UUID is wrong, but I’m not sure how to fix it. I thought the Cancel URL field from the Calendly trigger would be the UUID I need since the formatting matches what they asked for but its not working and no idea what else I can use. I’ve attached the screenshots below of the steps in question. Thanks in advance for any help :) Step 16: Trying to get the Event ID/UUID: Input Step 16: Trying to get the Event ID/UUID: Output Step 17: Cancel Scheduled Event: Input Step 17: Cancel Scheduled Event: Output/Error

Basecamp 4 "New Card" Trigger

I’m a big fan of Zapier and use it to automate many workflows. However, I’ve noticed that the Basecamp 4 integration doesn’t include a "New Card" trigger. This makes it impossible to automate tasks like creating a to-do list from a template when a new card is added.Does anyone have any experience or know someone that could help me create or add a "New Card" trigger for Basecamp 4? This would be incredibly helpful for users like me who rely on automation to streamline their workflows.Thank you for your consideration!

Twitch Stream Trigger Doesn't Display All Games

Hey all, I’m trying to setup a trigger from Twitch to post a message whenever a certain game is streamed. The game does have a category / page on twitch, and has been streamed many times over the last few years. However, when I search for it in the Configure part of the trigger, I do get a list that dynamically updates as I type, but the game I’m looking for is not found. Is there a reason for this, or a solution I can take? I’ve tried adding the game’s name as a “Custom Value” instead of “Static”, but it doesn’t seem to work.

Unfair Billing and Refund Policy — No Transparency

I’m deeply disappointed with how Zapier handled my recent billing issue. On March 14, 2024, I was charged for the next billing period at 17:47 local time, despite my last task running at 16:23 — nearly an hour before the charge. I immediately disabled all Zaps around 18:00, as I no longer needed the service. After contacting support, I was denied a refund, even though: 1. All tasks were completed before the charge. 2. I disabled all automations right after the charge. 3. Zapier has no clear, accessible refund policy on their website. As a customer from Kazakhstan, I’m entitled to a refund under local Consumer Protection Law for services I paid for but didn’t use. Despite explaining this, I was told their policy is “firm” — even though that policy isn’t clearly stated anywhere I could find. I’ve now initiated a chargeback through my bank and, sadly, will no longer use or recommend Zapier’s services. This isn’t how a company that values its customers should handle such situations.

How to embed a chatbot on the left side of my website using Zapier

Please, how do I embed the chatbot to my website and have it be on the left side, instead of the right. its seems zapier has it on the right by default and no way of changing it. I have tried to use ChatGPT to rewrite the code as I did with my voiceflow chatbot, but it affects the performance of the Zapier bot. it rarely shows up, it shows up when you've scrolled to the bottom of the page, and then it expands with only the Margin showing.

How do I test my app actions and triggers?

I am creating a new app, and I have added a trigger and an action to get started. The steps for creating an action (https://developer.zapier.com/app/210627/version/1.0.0/triggers/update_contact/api) indicate that I should test it by creating a Zap. So I created a Zap but when I try to configure the "Catch Hook" step and change it from "Webhooks by Zapier" to my app, I can't find my app, it isn't listed. I expect it isn’t listed because it hasn’t been published, but don’t I need to test it before I submit/publish it? How do I test my new action? Similarly, when I try to test my new trigger I don't see my app listed there either, so how do I test my trigger?

Integrating Zapier with Sharepoint

Hello, I need to integrate Zapier with SharePoint however my team is unable to use the out of the box integration since it gives Zapier full access to our SharePoint list which is allowed per security (See screenshot below).

[Feature Request] Zoom Team Chat Send Channel Message as Reply

The Zoom API endpoint Send Chat Message allows an optional field “reply_main_message_id” If this field is supplied, the message is sent as a reply to that main message. Currently, it’s not possible to supply that field, so messages that are created cannot be replies. I would like to send replies. :)

Evaluating HubSpot & NetSuite Integration Options

Hi everyone, We are currently planning to integrate our HubSpot environment with NetSuite. At the moment, we are using HubSpot’s native integration, but due to reliability issues and limitations, we are exploring alternative solutions. Our primary use case is: When a deal is marked as closed-won in HubSpot, we need to trigger an action to create a NetSuite Quote based on the HubSpot deal record and signed quote record. Additionally, we need to sync HubSpot Quote line items (Items, Discounts, etc.) to the corresponding NetSuite Quote. While researching, I recently learned that Zapier also provides integration capabilities between HubSpot and NetSuite and is a HubSpot-certified app. I’d love to hear from anyone who has experience with Zapier for HubSpot-NetSuite integrations. Specifically: Has anyone implemented a similar integration? What are the limitations of using Zapier for these kinds of use cases? Looking forward to your insights. Thanks in advance!

Error while sending a video URL to Buffer

Dear Zapier Community, I have trouble sending a video URL from my Google Sheets document to Buffer. In the image you can see the error I am getting: “The Buffer step hit an error. Process exited before completing request”. Zapier is reading the data correctly but Buffer keeps causing troubles when trying to complete my request. I also tried using the AI tool to guide me with finding the issue, but I can not do anything with the suggestions it gave me. Could someone help me out?

How to call a Sub-Zap from another Sub-Zap in Zapier?

I believe this is more a “Feature Request”: It would be massively beneficial if I could call a Sub-Zap from within another Sub-Zap. Is there any way to do this currently? Are there any plans within the Zapier Feature Roadmap to make this possible 🙏

How to securely manage API keys and tokens in Zapier

When using webhooks within Zapier, you may need to use a Secret Key or Bearer token. How should you manage this if you don't want other users in your company to know about it, or if you don't want to leave information in Zapier itself? thanks

Zapier not support refreshing refresh tokens in the OAuth flow?

It seems like a Zapier doesn’t fully implement the OAuth 2 flow, in regards to updating the refresh token. So the refresh token has to essentially live forever or you have to force customers to periodically update the refresh token? We’re returning the refresh_token in the auth token refresh request as specified in the OAuth standards but Zapier doesn’t actually use the refres_token in a subsequent response. Can anyone confirm if Zapier supports refreshing the refresh token in perhaps some other way without user interaction? An example successful response: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8 Cache-Control: no-store Pragma: no-cache { "access_token":"2YotnFZFEjr1zCsicMWpAA", "token_type":"example", "expires_in":3600, "refresh_token":"tGzv3JOkF0XG5Qx2TlKWIA", "example_parameter":"example_value" }
