Issue with OAuth2 Access Token Authorization

Hi, my organization has asked me to create an integration between Lazada API and Zapier. I found out that this can be made through Zapier Developer Platform. After exploring and testing if for a while, Lazada API use standard OAuth v2 for authentication. I have setup the Authentications for my Zapier app based on guidelines in the documentations. However, the Zapier cannot find access_token field in the Lazada API. I am new to this can someone help me with this? Here are my referenceshttps://platform.zapier.com/docs/oauthhttps://open.lazada.com/doc/doc.htm?spm=a2o9m.11193535.0.0.43fa38e4iOusvr#?nodeId=10434&docId=108260https://open.lazada.com/doc/api.htm?spm=a2o9m.11193494.0.0.64f1266b9KDL4n#/api?cid=11&path=/auth/token/create I would like to thank you for any help.

"View Source" now available in the web-based developer tool

We added a simple, but useful, new feature to our web based developer tool this week - the ability to see the source definition of your Zapier integration.  To see the json definition of your Zapier integration, click Advanced on the left-hand navigation, and then choose “View Source”.   This is handy for those who want to look a little deeper into how their integration is represented in the Zapier platform. Have a look at the schema documentation and you’ll get a pretty complete understanding of what you’re building when you create a Zapier integration.When you work with the Zapier CLI you are essentially creating this definition, directly in JavaScript.A number of developers have expressed the need to be able to identify and confirm changes from one version to another.  Here’s a quick demo of the feature, and how you can use this source definition to get a diff of two versions of your integration: Watch Version Diff Demo

Issue with OAuth2 token when testing authentication

I have setup the OAuth2 as described in zapier document. All things are fine upto Step 4.In Step 5: When I setup OAuth Account, it redirects me to login page where I enter the credentials and also it works fine.But when I do the test authentication by making call to API for test authentication, request success with 200, but authentication fails. I am not sure where is the exact error, I cannot see logs of zapier that what token is send or what is the reason for Authentication failure.Please suggest me right ways to fix this issue.

About the Developer Discussion forum

Welcome!The Developer area of the Zapier community is a place for dev-to-dev discussion about connecting your API to the Zapier Platform, and integrating Zapier into your product with our Partner API and embed SDK.  Bring your questions as you get started with our developer tools, building and testing your integration.  Share your expertise as a Zapier developer by answering questions and sharing your tips.  While Zapier engineers will certainly be hanging out here and participating in conversations, this forum is driven by community participation.  When you ask questions here be sure to share enough context so that another developer without access to the private details of your account can provide an answer that’s generally applicable to other developers with the same question.  So when should you ask a question here, and when should you contact Zapier support?Great questions for this community: “How can I do ____ with the Zapier developer tools?”  For example, “use my GraphQL API to

User Authentication accounts (OAUTH2)

What is the best way to go about making sure transactions are created by the actual end users creating them when calling API’s. We use the Zoho invoice and estimate API’s which have accounts setup via the out of the box API’s within zapier and also we have custom API’s configured with OAUTH2,  given that the OAUTH2 deals primarily with authorization and not user authentication every time we create an estimate or invoice via Zapier the created by user is stamped on the host application as the central account user that configured the connected account in Zapier.  Is there a way to set the users client credentials to be used with OAUTH2 so that when the API is physically called it recognises the transaction is being created by an actual user of the application or does this require a feature on the API side to handle this?

How much history is required for polling API

Hi, I understand polling is done once every 5-15 minutes. With that being said, how many minutes of history should I include to ensure Zapier never misses an event. My concern is that if I provide 30 minutes of history, what happens if Zapier (for some reason) goes 35 minutes without polling? I would lose 5 minutes worth of events.  Is there a recommended time window that essentially ensures an event would never be missed? Thanks Tim

How to process Action errors in a meaningful way

What is the proper way of handling or processing errors when defining an Action for an integration. Right now if the Action web-service call fails during Zap setup/creation there is only a cryptic message with an HTTP status code displayed. The nicely worded error message that is returned is not displayed to the user. I assume that I am doing something wrong in my API Request code. I would like to know how retrieve or extract the error message and where/how return it.  const options = { url: 'https://www.website.org/doaction', method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Authorization': `api_key=${bundle.authData.api_key}` }, params: { }, body: create_update_data}return z.request(options).then((response) => { response.throwForStatus(); const results = response.json; // You can do any parsing you need for results here before returning them return results;});

Zapier Labs Alpha Product - Low Code Tool

Hi everyone!I work in Zapier Labs, and we’re testing out a new product idea in the low-code space.  If you’re familiar with the way people use Webflow + Airtable + Zapier + Memberstack today to build a product from end-to-end, the tool we are building is in a similar space.Right now we’re looking for alpha program participants who would like to test it out, think about use cases, and potentially build something that we will publish to users and you can charge for directly.  If you’re interested it would be easiest if you drop me a note at jason.kotenko@zapier.com or on twitter DM @jasonkotenko with a sentence or two about your interest and if you have any background using no-code or low-code tools already.  I will share more details with you and we can do a quick call to see if it’s a fit.Thanks!Jason

Important update to the Developer Discussion category!update

As of today, August 13th of 2020, the Developer Discussion category will be exclusively for discussing integrations being built on the Zapier developer platform. We had previously allowed topics about Code and Webhook steps here, but those will (for now) be handled in Ask the Community.FAQsWhy are you changing things?This change is part of a larger endeavor to move some other developer resources into Community, from their current location in a Slack channel. We’re looking to remove any excess noise that’s not specifically about building integrations on our developer platform.Do I have to be a developer to post here?For right now, there are no specific requirements for you to have published, or even started, an integration on Zapier. It will likely just be the case that if you post here, that you’ve tried our developer platform.NOTE: In the not-so-distant future, we will make the Developer Discussion limited to community members who have the Developer role in our Community system (which

How can I change the WebHook HTTP Method from GET to POST in Zapier integration app

We have an existing zapier integration app which is working perfectly fine. We want to change the HTTP method from GET to POST, because as of now we have a GET endpoint in our application with a payload in that API, it means zapier is passing JSON body in GET call. We want to make it POST so for that we have to change the method in zapier as well. Just for the information, my application was build with “Integrations Built with Legacy Web Builder” Can any one please suggest how can I change the call.Thanks in advance.

Input field with type "file" only works if key is "file"

I have 2 input fields of the type “file”, the first one has the key “file” and the second one has a different key, something like “another_file” or “anotherFile”. When I set the same file from my Drive trigger as input in these fields it only works for the input field with the key “file”. See pictures.This test does work, First file field has key “file”.This test doesn’t work, Second file field has key “another_file”. When I’m using an url as input file they both work.

newbie - can I redirect the zap at completion to go back to another page on my website?

Hi I need to do more automation and link my website to my financials and calendar systems.   I have created and tested the first zap which I think will work.   the workflow is to access my calendar system (booklikeaboss), then payment (paypal) and invoice (xero).  I have done some basic zap creations and tests and all is good so far,  but the question is I think more basic.   as a last step of the zap, can I redirect the workflow back to a specific page within my website?

Instant Trigger Zap turns off on every webhook request

Hi,I’m creating a simple demo of an Instant zap using the Recipe sample code for a Hook Trigger, and sending a Slack message as a second action. After the Zap is tested and turned on, every time I do a request to the Webhook URL the zap ends up turning off. The Zap editor doesn’t show any alert/error apart from showing the zap off. Testing both steps are ok.The Monitoring tool doesn’t show any error log, only the webhook request received. No additional information.Zap history doesn’t show any record of the zap running before it is turned off.I createda a “Zap turned off” alert, but the data provided doesn’t have any useful information apart from the time the zap was paused, again, editor, history and monitor doesn’t show any error logs. I am using the CLI to create this trigger, is there a way to get a log from there?

How to add additional output fields using z-deduper

Hello, I’m using z-deduper in a trigger check for updates on my API endpoint. My API returns an array of objects that contains property. I can select a property with a dropdown button to only check for update on this property in each object. In order to do that, I have pretty much the same code as the example provided by the author of the z-deduper package. The only difference is that the object returned only cointains the property and it’s value ( instead of all the properties ).  My problem is that I need some other properties of the objects as output data to use them in my action ( for example the “id” property or the “label” property of my object ). How can I add those other properties to my outputFields ? I can’t put them into my object because otherwise z-deduper will also detect changes on those properties.  Thanks :) ps: My app is on CLI. Informations about z-deduper : https://github.com/ikbelkirasan/z-deduper
