Cache request that populates dynamic dropdown

How can I cache the data that was fetched for dynamic dropdown? I am building part of the action form based on user defined fields fetched from my API. { key: 'user_define_fields', label: 'Map user fields', required: false, list: true, dynamic: 'customFields.name', helpText: 'Choose custom fields to be mapped.', altersDynamicFields: true,},function (z, bundle) { if (!bundle.inputData.custom_fields) return []; const selectedFields = bundle.inputData.custom_fields.map(function (el, idx) { return { key: el, type: 'string' }; }); return { key: 'user_defined_custom_fields', children: selectedFields };} The issue is that every time user opens the dropdown to add another field (another line item) the resource `customFields` is fetched again. Is this somehow possible to cache that request?

OAuth2 auth_code not being populated

I’m unable to create a successful OAuth2 login with Google. I switched to Code mode and log the response from the request to get access_token from auth code. I can see the access_token here when i look at the console log via z.console.log When I inspect the Bundle via the z.console.log I see some :censored: value The final step in my connection is to call https://www.googleapis.com/userinfo/v2/me with the Bearer token set as access_token However it is just erroring out saying im not passing the access_code Using bundle.authData.access_token does not work But when I take the access_token from the console log and place it here - it works What’s up with bundle.authData.access_token?

Private Key Auth

I see some App integrations such as Airtable ask you for a private key for Auth. What are the pros/cons of this? What is the typical route people use for Authentication?

OAuth2 Provider Choice

I clicked through a bunch of Zapier Integrations to see how they handled Auth. I tried slack and like how they prompt you to choose a third party Auth server. How do I build this page where you choose Google or Facebook or Github etc? Any examples?

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

Can we provide more error details to the user?

Aloha all! First time we’ve run into the question: the user-facing error message is getting truncated when sending back a long string (In cases where there’s a lot of data for the user to take action on). Is there a way to return an object to the Zapier editor so that the user can drill down further instead of getting a truncated message? Or are we just limited to a character limit for the string and that’s that? If so, what’s the character limit? Thanks for the help! Best, ~Sean and team

Shopee Integration return "Field named `access_token` not found in OAuth2 results "

hello everyone, I was working on Shopee integration for work. I’m new to zapier but still trying to make this Shopee integration working. It been a few days I stuck at access token request because it always return Field named `access_token` not found in OAuth2 results error when I try to connect to my app integration. https://markuphero.com/share/tf0QMUufX3mBlj7Ye4tc First, I’m not sure what URL should I use for my Authorization URL. I did try to use https://shopee.com.my/ but when I try to connect to my app integration, it send me to shopee main page. Even after I login to my account it keep going like I’m using normal Shopee instead connect to my app Integration. I just decide to use the same URL at “copy your OAuth Redirect URL” because it lead to normal zapier connect app page.Once again, I’m not used to zapier OAuth2 that why I make this type of decision. Back to “Access Token Request”, I’m having a hard time trying to make my code work to get access token.Here link to shopee docu
