Accessing message content in Rocket.Chat triggers

I am trying to pull message content from channels/direct messages/discussions from within RocketChat. I am trying to take specific messages from the Chats and to then insert it elsewhere (airtable for example) I have made sure I am connected with correct permissions. But I have run into the following odd issues: When trying to catch starred messages - Zapier is not finding any (but i know there are). I have tried testing with starring private messages, team messages, channel messages etc. but Zapier will not find them even though the trigger is called “starred message anywhere” When trying to catch pinned messages - the trigger works, but there is no where i can see to catch the actual message content - but rather only message related meta, eg: Room ID, username, date etc. Also, When trying to catch any message with a specific word included (using a filter) - here too, there is no way to access the actual message content. In the RocketChat API, i see there is a key called ‘msg’ which c

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?

Understanding Rentman subprojects and the name function options

Hi there! I am new to the Rentman/Zapier integration setup and am looking for clarification on why the Subproject option has two data options for “Name” and which one relates to the project name, attached below. I imagine the answer is one of these relates to the name of the Project item and the other relates to the Subproject item but I am not sure which is which here. Also, another question, why is the “status” data option only available under “subprojects”? I want to be able to create an automation to send a channel message when a project is canceled. We rely on the project numbers to help us search for the correct project, however, the project number is not available when using the “subproject” item in the zap. So I’m running into this loop right now where we can’t specify this with paths in the way I would like. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How to create a webhook in Zapier for RingCentral tasks

I am trying to create a webhook in Zapier that will add a task in RingCentral when a form is submitted on our website. I am struggling with the authorization. When I registered the app with RingCentral, it provided a API Server URL, Client ID and Client Secret as credentials, but I don’t know where/how to enter these in the Zapier Webhook.

Langflow Integration

Hi there,I'm trying to integrate Langflow (hosted at Datastax) with Zapier. There is a zap to run a Langflow workflow, but I'm stuck on authenticating my Langflow account with Zapier.If anyone has an experience with Langflow, could you please advise what I should enter in these fields? I've basically tried every possible API/URL I can find in my Langflow settings, and mostly I get this error: We hit an error adding your new account authentication failed:The app returned "no bearer token in request". I have tried adding Bearer, but the error message remains the same. I would appreciate any help!

How do I use Function type tools in Zapier's OpenAI chat-gpt assistant integration?

When creating an chat-gpt assistant in OpenAI we can select from built-in tools like code interpreter or specify a Function type tool. Function type tools run in the client code calling the assistant. In Zapier’s integrations chat-gpt’s assistant (create assistant or conversation with assistant) I can select an internal tool (e.g., code interpreter) but I don’t see an option for Function type tools. I can select Custom and pick a list of variables/parameters but no function (actions?) the assistant can use. It is not clear to me how the Custom list of parameters are used. Am I misunderstanding how to use the Custom option? Ultimately my goal is to enable the assistant to search the web to help with answers. OpenAI assistants (unlike GPTs) cannot do it by themselves, the need to use Function tools. It is not clear to me if it is possible to do this in Zapier.

Enhancing AgencyZoom integration for improved service request automation

Hi Zapier Team, A feature that would greatly benefit insurance agencies is the ability to capture data from the AgencyZoom Service Center and other request types beyond just leads. Currently, the integration is limited primarily to creating service requests (for Service Center on Agency Zoom), but agencies critically need more automation options related to the Service Center. Expanding the integration to include Service Center-related triggers and actions would significantly improve automation capabilities by allowing us to: Trigger workflows based on service requests and other client interactions within the Service Center. Capture real-time updates on service-related activities, ensuring timely follow-ups and automation. Improve overall agency efficiency by automating more processes beyond just lead management. This enhancement would be a game-changer for insurance agencies utilizing Zapier with AgencyZoom. Please consider expanding the available triggers and actions to better support

Automating Dune Buggy Price Updates to Pinterest with Zapier – Need Some Advice!

Hey everyone! I’m running a website that lists various dune buggy tour packages in Dubai, including prices, durations, and details. I want to automate the process of updating prices and promotions to Pinterest when they change on my website. I’m looking for advice on how to set up a Zap with Zapier to connect my website (WordPress, Shopify, or Google Sheets) to Pinterest so I can share the updated prices and promotions with my followers as soon as they go live. Here’s what I’m thinking: Set up a trigger for when a price change is made on my website or in my Google Sheet. Automatically post the updated price and package details to Pinterest, using an eye-catching image of the tour. Add relevant hashtags to make sure the pins get noticed by people interested in Dubai adventure tours and dune buggy experiences. Has anyone done something similar before? I’d love to hear your tips, best practices, or any Zap templates you recommend. Also, any advice on how to make sure the pins look great a

Why cant i authenticate my app?! Oauth 2 or Session Auth

Im using the developer platform to build a zapier integration with an API that uses OAuth2 authorisation however am struggling. The API in question uses 4 bit of information to obtain an access token: client_id client_secret username password The client_id and secret are fixed - they will be set in the Zapier integration and used every time. The username and password will need to be gathered by zapier then added to the request whenever someone wants to authenticate. I can run a curl request and am successful in returning a result: curl -XPOST -H 'Accept:application/json' -d 'grant_type=password&client_id=xxxxxxxx&client_secret=xxxxxxxxxxx&username=person@domain.com&password=MyPassword!' https://myAPIdomain.com/v1/auth/token I have tried configuring this with both Oauthv2 and Session Auth however always get the same error "Invalid grant_type parameter or parameter missing" My config for Session Auth: HTTP Headers are content-type = application/x-www-form-urlencoded and accept = applicat

How should I solve this problem? It looks like code mode is used and Zapier tries to find the token directly I just took over this project and I'm not very familiar with Zapier, so I'm sorry
