Zapier only outputs first json object, having troube useing looping

I have been given the assignment to connect our company's API to Zapier with custom connectors. This appears to be working although it only returns the first item of the JSON object (fig 1) which seems to be the norm for zapier. I added the option (fig 2) to output all data with 0.Name 0.Sequence 1.Name 1.Sequence. etc. form (fig 3), however neiither yield what we want. We have a use case that loops over all applications in our software and performs some actions with each application but zapier only does all the steps with the first one I tried to add looping and formatting but I'm just a bit to novel to really be able to apply it to our own API.Does anyone know how I would be able to accomplish our goal of having one run loop over each application available?

How do I set a category for an app?

Hi,Our Zapier app is built using CLI. I couldn't find any information in the documentation on how to set a category for the app. When I publish the app, it shows up without any category.For example, Notion Zapier app has Task Management category.Thanks.

How do I get all of the results of my GET request?

I am very new at this sort of thing and have never worked with code or API prior to this but I have been learning quickly and believe I have the things we need up to about 90% of the way good but this last issue I cant seem to figure out. Whenever I run my zap (or even the tests) for my Search Action using a GET request, it only returns the first result but I am trying to use it to either populate or update a table/sheet/database so I need all of the results. I can get pictures if needed but since I am new at this, I wasnt sure what would be relevant or not to include for someone to better and understand and assist me.

Can anyone review this custom action with google sheets for me?

I’m trying to update a column at a time with google sheets. Ideally I’d like to do multiple columns, but we’re starting with just one. I’ve got everything set up according to the google API documents and when I test the API, it works. But when I transfer the zap over live, it runs into an error saying that the formatting is wrong and it expected another value. I’ve tried this with multiple inputs (a column of 5-6 values) and just one value, but I get the same error each time. Here’s what google API documents say it should look like:  Here’s what I have in the body:Here’s my entry in the zap itself:  Here’s the error I’m getting: "error": { "code": 400, "message": "Invalid JSON payload received. Unexpected token.\n,}\n^", "status": "INVALID_ARGUMENT" } }

How to make text encoding in live Zap the same as test Zap?

When I upload a test file with a Zap to my server the contents are in JSON format as a long string. When I upload a file with a live Zap the text is parsed onto different lines. I don’t want the text to be parsed. About 4 months ago this was not an issue but now is. How do I turn off this auto encoding so that the test and live Zap are the same?

How do I use a Zap to find and match multiple product titles in Shopify from Google Sheets?

Hi! I am trying to connect Google Sheets with Shopify so that a new order is triggered in shopify whenever a new line is filled out on the google sheet. The first step is that I need Zapier to search and find the product on shopify. I am using the “Find Product by Title in Shopify” function in Zapier and this is successful when only one product title is entered in the field. However, I need Zapier to find and match 3 different products with different titles from my shopify inventory. I have tried seperating the product titles with a semicolon (;) and I have placed each on seperate lines but this is generating an error message. Please let me know if you have experience with this. Thanks!

I am trying to pull the raw binary text of a pdf to upload to an S3 upload link, but it doesn’t seem to be working because zapier isn’t setup to handle all of the necessary characters that are used in ucf8 encoding. I could be wrong, but this seems to be the issue.

Using trigger with browse AI

Hi, feels like a stupid question but here it is. When does my robot run, must I press the robot run task?I have integrated with Zapier and when I build from the Browser AI site I get the trigger namned "Executed Task in Browse AI".When I build frpm Zapier its namned "Execute Task in Browse AI".Almost the same but there is a difference of course. I can´t do Executed task... after another trigger. Executed task... gives me the best result for some reason.What I whant to build is that every thursday morning every week it will get the data from Bowser AI and use it to eventually send a mejl.  Thanks!

Make `,1` work in line itemizer?

Currently building a private integration where data extraction is performed Screenshot  Problem is from step 3 to step 4, I tried to line-itemize a `,1` line item output from 3, with config as belowNote this `,1` means empty `` for product A, `1` for product BPay attention to `Quantity` value - `,1` When testing, it converted into `productA: 1; productB: none` instead Here’s the bug - if I manually input `,1`, it works as expected Does anyone know how do I fix this? Should I avoid using Zapier line-itemizer and create my own with string manipulation? Thanks a lot!

zapier OAuth flow expires_int

does the OAuth 2.0 flow support expires_in for refresh tokens? It appears that Zapier doesn’t actually look at the expres_in field to determine if the accessToken is invalid - it instead calls the API so we need to return 401 to Zapier every time an access token goes bad. This seems like a security issue by making it more difficult to find real unauthorized attempts from bad actors.

Who triggered the Linear event

Hello, I am creating a zap catching Linear issue updates and logging them into a Notion table. Unfortunately, in the Linear event trigger and later in recording the event, I don’t see who triggered it. I can see only the issue creator and assignee but not who did the change.  My use case is that I need to log ticket Rejection status changes made by certain people. What else I can do to get the full information about the event?Ideas are welcome.

Managing multiple connections OAuth2

 I’m prototyping a new Zapier integration. We want to allow customers to create multiple connections to our application using the OAuth 2.0 flow. We want to display the connections on our website similar to how Zapier displays connections under the app folder. However, we cannot tell the difference between when an OAuth 2.0 flow is initiated for creating a new connection or refreshing an existing connection. So if we had a list of a connections on our end we wouldn’t know if we should insert the connection into our database or update an existing connection. Is is possible to obtain a “connectionId” or configure Zapier to pass a connectionId or something similar whenever an OAuth 2.0 flow is initiated, either for the update an existing connection scenario or creating a new connection? Or is this not possible to do or against best practices to display multiple connections if there are.

Looking for a way to set dictionary keys from API query

I see that using a `dict: true` input field allows me to set have the value of each dictionary item set based on dynamic data from a previous trigger. What I’d like to do is have the dictionary key field populate from the results of an API call to my database. In my database I can define the custom attributes field types. I’d like to be able to click into the key field and choose from a dynamic dropdown of API results (if any are retrieved) rather than having to type in the value. Is there a way to have the “key” field populate from a trigger or search step? I’ve seen similar questions asked about this and some of the answers suggested using a dynamic inputField instead. Would that allow me to provide a list of Form Field names for the key AND dynamic contact data for the value?Also I can’t add predefined keys as we don’t know what the custom attribute will be or how many there will be.Dictionary input field with value data dynamically supplied from trigger

invalid email treated as data only

Hi,I am having fun linking ECWID to VCITA and I got it working fine, then it stopped working and been trying to fix it since. I believe there's an issue between ECWID & VCITA regarding Zapier but the latest i am getting is an invalid email, when the email is valid, I also don’t want Zapier to police the email addresses being inputted by clients, so how can you just treat it as a data field only?

When is this company getting with the times and have DARK MODE????????

I’ve read comments about having dark mode and some were a year old and nothing yet.I’m thinking zapier is taking it’s customers for granted, most businesses want to hear from their clients on how they can improve, looks like this company really doesn’t care about their clients!!They have our money and think we are hear to stay.Well I’ve been here a short time searched this issue out and ended up here, this almost sounds like our present goverment!!  They could care less about what the citizens want regardless, and zapier is the same, if it’s been requested by their clients for that long and nothing yet what does that say?They don’t give a shit what we want just keep paying and shut up!! Even tho basically everyone online is using dark mode it’s old news, these guy could care less what we want!!  I learned about others before I came here, was being used the most but zapier is a lot more money to use and are behind the times! Just getting going and can easily switch obviously these guy d
