Custom Validation Function for Input fields in Dynamic Dropdowns

Hey team, As seen in the image below, say I have a field XYZ and its set to required, if I do not select a value for this field, it shows a error message in red text describing the issue. Is it possible to write my own input validation function, say checkIfAllowed [which could possibly be an API call]? The flow will look something like: 1. I select some option for the input field XYZ, this function should execute and depending on the result, an error message can be shown to the user, say “Not allowed”. Or in positive case, the rest of the dropdown should show. I see I can use altersDynamicFields  for dynamically updating the rest of the dropdown. Can I in any way show a custom error message if the validation fails? Thanks

Is anyone else having the issue? Thank you Zara

Use the line items created by a regex formatter with Airtable's find or create record

I have a Zap with a new-email-message trigger.  Each email will have one or two IDs in the subject and a PDF attachment.  My goal is to create an airtable table record that contains the ID and the attachment.I created a regex text formatter to split the subject into line items.  For example:output 1 0 Y123456789 2 1 Z123456789Next, I try to use these line items with Airtable’s “Find many records (with line item support)”.  I chose the desired field to search and output 0 and the search value.Unfortunately, only one of the two records is actually created in Airtable.What am I missing?

Facing issue while integrating my app (using bearer token login Api) with zapier authorization

Hi!Trying to integrate our property portal Api, for authorization we have to integrate login Api with bearer token in headers.But for zapier, the user will add his credentials with username and password for login on our platform. As our system Api is taking the bearer token key in the header of each request. how we can send bearer token keys (header) to login Api?Which auth will be best for building auth on zapier for our system?Looking forward to your positive response. thanks

We want to hide custom option

Hello Support Team,In our integration, we want to hide the custom option for a static field. The reason we want to hide this option is that we have already provided a default value for the dropdown, and we don't want users to choose a value from the data coming through the custom form trigger. If they map the wrong value, it could lead to the failure of the zap. To reduce the failure scenario of the zap, we would like to do this. Below, I have added an image for reference.Please let us know if there is any way to achieve this.  Thanks in Advance !

Access Zaps via API

I would like to build a service that can access Zapier integrations programatically. The service would basically be replicating the process of creating Zaps, but will use our custom interface. I would like to approach it this way, so my clients wouldn’t require individual Zapier accounts. Is this something that is possible with Zapier? If so, how would I go about it? Thanks.

plugin's environment management

Hello Let’s say I have a custom plugin in zapier, representing MyAppMyApp has different environment, like Spain, French, Staging, and developpement. The only variability between the different env are the domain of some urls corresponding to MyApp’s webservices.I thought of 2 different approaches to address that:-having a unique app: The zapier user would specify at the account level which env is targetted. Downside I see: the plugin’s logs would be mixed up between environments.-having  “several instances of plugin” with a template system. User would have to pick the plugin that match the target env. It would literally mean one plugin = one env, so I would have 3 plugins in that case. I would use the same source code but with a template to address variable domain url, and zapier push individual plugin each time I want to release  => would need a pipeline Let me know what you think about itGood day

Using oauth2 with React

I’m implementing an app integration with oauth2 where my server is issuing an access token to zapier. Upon clicking connect I redirect to my applications frontend with a login screen to validate the user and go through the oauth2 flow. The access token is issued and the test endpoint works. My issue is when the user hits the approve button my server responds with a redirect url which I redirect with window.location.href = response.redirectUrlAt this point you can see the zapier screen for a short second and the window closes. Is this what is supposed to happen? I assume it’s displaying some sort of success message (since it works). But it seems like kind of a bad user experience since there’s no real validation that the connection worked.

NLA, Langchain and Google sheets

I am working on an AI project with Langchain, a platform that allows me to use large language models (LLMs) for various tasks. I have connected my Langchain project with the Zapier NLA API, which is supposed to enable me to integrate different apps and services with natural language commands. I have written some Python code to run my project, but it does not seem to work properly. The code should send some data from my project to a new row in a Google sheet, but when I check the sheet, nothing has changed. I don't know why this is happening, and I can't find any helpful tutorials on the Langchain website. The tutorials are only for basic use cases, but I need to use AutoGPT, a custom agent that uses long-term memory and a prompt for independent work. I have tried contacting Zapier support, but they are very slow to reply. Does anyone have any experience with using Zapier and Langchain together with AutoGPT? I would appreciate any advice or guidance. Thank you.

Download Report from Mode to place on SFTP

Hi there,I am trying to create a zap that initiates a report run in Mode, then moves the .csv report to a Google Cloud Storage bucket. Neither Mode or GCS have connectors in Zapier, so I’m attempting to do this all through custom API calls.I’ve gotten as far as kicking off the Mode report, but am unable to actually access the report (over 100mb). Does anyone know of a way I can get to the report and then move it to GCS?Thanks!

Trying to integrate our app and Zapier will not "post" data

As a developer we have an app I am trying to setup for use on Zapier. Right now I am trying to create an action and gave Zapier our webhook URL as a POST request. I setup several fields and ran some tests. Zapier does not seem to create a valid POST request as there is no POST data being sent to our webhook URL. Attached are some screen shots. Any help would be much appreciated!

Slack Integration via API Token

I’m curious if anyone out there has built a Slack integration that uses an API Token for access rather than OAuth?  For reasons that I do not understand, the built in Slack integration only supports OAuth, which means it ends up tied to a specific user.  It seems silly to rebuild identical functionality simply to have a different authentication method.If there are others whose security team would like this feature, perhaps you can chime in and help get Zapier to prioritize providing this?

When Will We be able to add Website data to a zapier interfaces chatbot?

Just spent $20 to upgrade Zapier interfaces. The chatbot we are trying to build requires live back-end data, but for now you have to manually upload a file in the back end in order to get the chatbot to use that data. Right now, the feature says “coming soon” When can we expect this feature?

This website just published a blog post on Passkeys, extolling the wonders. Yet this website itself does not seem to have support for it, nor do others that say they support passkeys (https://account.live.com/proofs/manage/additional?uaid=336fb4b29af248f7bbd1bd914c716023 for example). So let’s stop all the security theatre already! Admit it’s all a mess, needs an overall, so hang on, it’s gunna be a long rocky road to a password free world.
