How to insert and update records in an Excel spreadsheet using a chatbot

We need to preform 2 actions mainly in the spreadsheet1. Insert & updateIf it’s a new service, then we insert the record in the spreadsheet2. If it’s a modification to an existing service, then we need to find the service in the excel spreadsheet and then update itWe are not using Email as trigger point as it won’t be ideal method to do it. I can’t use webhooks since we get some changes in PDFs. I can’t use any third party except Microsoft Spreadsheet.

asked in Data Structuring

Use the data from previous zap in the next one by one click.

I have two zaps one for create client and one for client project. After the created client action I have the data in my create project action. How can I have all the data in one field. Is there some dynamic field or some field or function to retrieve the data from the previous zap in my next zap. I dont want to use client name, email, etc, separately in different field for my project. I need the whole data at once in one click.Thank you.

Summarizing files sent in slack using ChatGPT assistant

I’m trying to have an automation that starts off when a user uploads a file into a specific slack channel. From this, I would like to pull the file from the input and send that over to a specific GPT assistant to help extract the relevant information from the document in relation to its task. I’m not the owner and admin of the workspace and ahve enabled public file sharing.Are there any workarounds that you helpful folks know of?[Here are some screenshots of the workflow and some more details surrounding the exact problem within the file upload]Also not sure which field i should be using from slack - think i have tried them all

Can we get a normal search bar on the home page?

Zapier added that AI automation builder (screenshot). I admit, it’s a good idea and I like it. But can’t we get a normal search bar on the home page? Most of the time I access my account, it’s to check or update a zap anyway. And I keep clicking in the automation thing by accident. Even better would be AI powered search, but I don’t want to overshoot lol

Zapier trying to authenticate multiple times

Hello Zapier Community,I am establishing a Session Auth connection through my Zapier Action.However, even if the connection is successful, Zapier keeps sending requests to my authentication and test endpoints multiple times.I saw that a user here in the community had a similar problem https://community.zapier.com/general-discussion-13/session-auth-issue-requesting-session-token-twice-after-it-works-first-time-3342?tid=3342&fid=13, however my problem is a little different, because it seems like there is a trigger sending the authentication request multiple times.To be more objective, what happens is:My Action sends the fields to authenticate to my authentication endpoint and my endpoint returns the session token successfully;The Action triggers the test command with the session token and returns success.At this point it should stop trying to authenticate, however it starts re-authenticating again and it does so successfully and repeats this step at least 4 times.I would be grateful

Issue with OTP message

I set up Zaps to automatically send a message when a ticket is created on Freshdesk. It asked me to enter my phone number on WhatsApp, and then it should send an OTP. However, the OTP message has not been sent to me. Can you assist me with this issue and explain why the OTP message is not being sent

Automating Translation Requests and Workflows

I have seen posts on different social media accounts that people are automating their business by using workflows by Zapier. This has made me curious over the last few weeks whether it can relate to my customers as well. The issue is customers are diversified, not only by region but also by their languages.So looking for a workflow that can help me and my partners serve corporate translation services to clients across the Globe. How can we handle them according to their locations and their languages?This will help us in saving our time and making it more manageable to deal with the millions of customers across the world.

How do I embed Zapier and test the OAuth flow locally? I don’t want to create an Integration.

I’m building a SaaS app that will provide AI agents. I want to connect my AI agents with Zapier AI Actions so that the agents can perform actions, such as book an event in Google Calendar.I was going to implement the OAuth flow and test it locally, bit it requires an App Client Id which can only be obtained after publishing the app.This seems a bit counterintuitive – how can I publish the app without even testing it locally?Now, to publish the app (i.e., Integration) I need 3 users with live Zaps, etc. This is also confusing because I don’t even want to create an Integration. That is, I don’t want users of Zapier to call my APIs. I want my end customers to use Zapier via my app.It seems like there’s no way to “embed” Zapier without creating an Integration first? Why is that? Is Zapier not the right fit for my needs?

Issue with Preview Link Execution and Data Transmission to GPT

I’m currently using Zapier AI Actions to integrate Google Sheets with GPT, and while most of the setup works well, I’ve encountered an issue when using the preview link feature. Here’s the situation:I’ve set up an AI Action in Zapier to retrieve and update data from Google Sheets. When the preview mode is disabled, the workflow executes perfectly, and GPT receives the expected results. However, when I use the preview link to manually review and execute the action, the results are not transmitted back to GPT.It seems like the manual execution from the preview link does not trigger the necessary data flow back to Zapier AI Actions or GPT.I would greatly appreciate it if someone could explain why this issue occurs and guide me on how to resolve it effectively.

WordPress app authentication failed

Hi,I have been using the WordPress API Request (Beta) zap without any issues for the last 3-4 months. However, the last week the connection failed. I have tried to reconnect the WordPress app in “My connections”, but I have been getting the following error since then:To rule out that it was not an error of the connected website, I have tried to connect other websites made with WordPress, with different configurations (themes, plugins...), and in all tests I get the same authentication error without any specific message.

However, when I try to turn on my Zap, it fails to activate.Additionally, I currently have a free plan in my Zapier account.

Feedback on REST Hook in Perform Subscribe

I'm developing a public integration that includes a REST hook, and I’d like to implement error handling in the performSubscribe method to provide feedback message to the end user if the subscription endpoint fails. Is this possible?So far, I’ve validated non-200 status codes returned by the request, but when testing on the platform, it allows the Zap to turn on and then turns it off a few seconds later without any feedback.Here the code:const subscribeHook = async (z, bundle) => { const options = { url: "<endpoint>", body: data, skipThrowForStatus: true }; const response = await z.request(options); if (response.status != 200) { throw new z.errors.Error("User-friendly message", "SubscriptionError", response.status); } return response.data;}; Or is it possible to use the performList method to return a message to the user during the 'Test' step of the trigger configuration?

[Auth] Refresh token is added as url query parameter

Hi all, we’re facing the issue that we want to do the auth with Cognito, in code mode we have: const options = { url: 'https://auth.hauzd.app/oauth2/token', method: 'POST', headers: { 'content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' }, body: { 'client_id': 'x', 'grant_type': 'refresh_token', 'refresh_token': bundle.authData.refresh_token }, removeMissingValuesFrom: { 'body': false, 'params': false },}return z.request(options) .then((response) => { if (response.id_token) { return response.id_token } return false }); but it adds the refresh_token as query parameter, which causes a “invalid_grant” error.It is a “Session auth”. We tried also “Api Key Auth” but it is the same… There is no way to avoid refresh_token to be put as query parameter.Basically the issue is that the refresh_token should not be sent as query param but there is no way to remove it from there. Please help. Thanks in advance!Regards,Gonzalo.
