Problems with Post request in nodejs (step Action Run Javascript)

I have tried in many ways to be able to send the parameters via querystring using the Run JavaScript action, if I test it outside of Zapier it works fine for me, and even through Postman ... at the other end of this request, there is a page php that you get for get 2 parameters ... please, if someone has already gone through this, I ask for your guidance, thank you. This is my zapier code:const http = require('http');const querystring = require('querystring');const parameters = {    url: inputData.varurl,    fn: inputData.varfn};const post_data =  querystring.stringify(parameters);const options = {    host: "XXXXXXXX.cl",    port: "80",    path: "/test.php",    method: "POST",  headers: {    'Content-Type': 'text/html; charset=UTF-8',    'Connection': 'keep-alive'  }}const request = http.request(options, (response) => {    // console.log(response.statusCode);});request.write(post_data);request.end();  output = {request: request};

"Load More" in performList

When setting up.a zap trigger,  if user clicks “load more” in the trigger sample data , the `bundle.meta.page` gotten in performList is always 0. It doesnt increment. So additional records are never fetched. What is the purpose of the “load more” button? And how do I load additional records in sample data?

Processing / Mapping REST Hook Payloads

Hi, I’m switching from using polling based integrations to REST hook ones. However there’s a few things the documentation for `zapier-platform-core` doesn’t make clear to me.With polling I can process the response data from my application before returning it to a Zap to reshape it, I’m wondering how best to do this with instant triggers? My application has a single set of endpoints for managing subscriptions, where hook can subscribe to one or more events, and will receive all events of those types within the user’s scope, the actual event payload is wrapped to aid processing multiple types: { "timestamp": "2021-11-16T16:29:00Z", // Event Timestamp "event": "resource.action", // The Event Type "organization": { // "id": "someid", // "Organization" represents the scope in which "name": "Some Name" // the event happened }, "payload": { /* object */ } // The "payload" object

Trigger that returns mulitple-rows

My organization has an existing restful service that returns an array of objects when called.  This can be constrained by a date range and authenticated using basic auth.  I’ve been able to successfully call the method when building the Zapier trigger.  When I test the API call I see the API returning multiple-rows.  However when I attempt to use this Trigger in a Zap to write out a file with the rows returned - I can never get more than one row to render.The scenario we’re supporting is a client accessing this method to get results that have changed during a specified time period.  This could return from 0 - n records.  I’m just trying to set up a test zap that returns a CSV file or Excel file with multiple rows.  Our understanding is that the clients are using an application with Zapier integration.Is there something specific that needs to be done with the data being returned from the API?  Is there something that has to be done after the call to expose all the rows it returned?Appre

Help getting data from Quickbooks Online into my company's app

Hi. I’m a new developer and I’m in over my head. I’m hoping someone here in the Zapier community can help me.The company I started working for is integrating their application with two programs: Quickbooks Online and a whitelisted CRM. I’ve been tasked with building out this integration using Zapier.I was able to get outbound data transfer working, so when a new customer is created in our application, data is sent through Zapier and results in QBO and the CRM also adding copies of the new customer to their systems. I went through the process of setting up authentication (using sessions/Javascript Web Tokens), making sure data could be read from our API, sorting the data in reverse chronological order so that Zapier knew where the new data was, and built a trigger so that when a new customer is added in our app, two separate Zaps are triggered that send that customer’s info to QBO and to the CRM. That side is fine.Now, I’m working on the reverse, starting with QBO, and I’ve hit some roa

Upper limit on length of array in API response?

While building the “trigger” part of a Zapier integration, I am sending an array of objects being developed on fly using the DB layer behind the back-end API. But I don’t want to send a huge array covering all the rows of a particular table (say recipes), What I understand Zapier expects the array of  ~ 25 objects (got this number from a video by Zapier’s Engineering Manager) and it will figure out the new entries and accordingly will trigger the “trigger”. But this raises the question what if we have more than 25 or may be 100s of objects being added between 2 polls of Zapier, how to handle such situation?Should I keep track of the id number to which we have submitted to Zapier and send array of objects only beyond that id? If this is the recommended practice what can be good architecture philosophy to implement the same, I mean what are the best practices to do this?I would like to know the brief architecture of the Zapier, particularly the trigger part so that we can plan the integr

Stale Auth triggers when it should refresh the session token

Hello everyone,I’m running into some trouble with polling triggers specifically and refreshing the token on Session Auth. Every hour the token expires and the server returns back a 401 error to Zapier. In most cases Zapier calls the Session Auth automatically and a new token is issued, however, if multiple polling triggers are set up and they each get 401 error codes then Zapier will throw a stale auth error and the user will have to re-connect their App again. I would like Zapier to not throw the Stale Auth error unless something changed on their account (i.e. Username or Password change).Below is a snippet of code that my polling trigger runs when it receives a response from the server. return z.request(options).then((response) => { //response.throwForStatus(); if (response.status === 401) { throw new z.errors.RefreshAuthError(); }I used response.throwForStatus(); initially and then decided to try z.errors.RefreshAuthError(); if the response is a 401. However I’m sti

Line items of type 'file' - error: ‘Object of type LazyFile is not JSON serializable’

Hi, I am trying to use a line item field of type ‘file’. Unfortunately this lead me to an error: ‘Object of type LazyFile is not JSON serializable’.Context: I am developing an integration with CLI and this happend while designing an action. The example input data for the action is a mail attachment from the G-Mail integration. If I use OneDrive as a trigger (file uploaded) the error does not occure. Maybe this has something to do with hydration.I also tried extracting the file field out of the line items. This worked for me and does not lead to any error. I am not sure whether this is a bug or I did something wrong.

How to refresh OAuth tokens for Google’s API?

Hello, I am trying to translate the actions inside https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/to grab the refresh token and or the access token. I have crafted my API and it works firing off a request with a pre worked out authorisation bearer. but obviously this only lasts 60 minutes before you need to get a new access token. I spent a few days researching and trying to do this myself but kept coming up short. I noticed there was a similar post which looks to be using OAuthv1 methods and an article https://platform.zapier.com/docs/oauthBut still with all of this information I was unable to understand how to create the tokens.Anyone able to assist me in this please?  Thanks in advance
