For Developers

I’m brand new to Zapier and looking into developer integrations for possible use in my company’s custom CMS software. My question is… is it even possible to develop an integration without a centrally hosted service? For example, all of our websites live on their own domain and have their own urls to login (basic email/password, sometimes 2FA), so there’s no mycompany.com/authenticate url or anything equivalent. It would all be website1.com/cms/login, website2.com/cms/login, etc. The zap actions that I would be exposing would be the same across the board, but I’m not sure this type of setup would even work with Zapier without adding a layer on top just for authentication/communications.  Maybe I’m thinking about this the wrong way. How does something like Wordpress do the same thing with websites (and their data) living on unique domains? Anybody have insight?

I am new to Zapier and attempting a proof of concept. We are able to read data from our APIs, however, it seems we need to post process data coming back from the API call due it not being in an array.  We found help / community articles for this.   However, it seems that “code mode” is not looking at variables correctly or not saving the code on triggers/is getting confused with modifications. Are there known issues with code mode? Thank you

Hi, Making actions, got to the point where I need to reach the next url. www.example.com/something/{id} I was wondering how we do pass in Zapier that id, as is not part of a input?   Thanks

Hello! I want to make a zap between Bambora.com (similar to Stripe) and Zoom.us. The idea is when a payment is processed in Bambora, the person will get connected to a Zoom chatroom.    Does anyone have experience in creating Zaps for apps that are not available as a choice in the list? PS: Bambora.com has an open API. Thank you!

We just published our application in Zapier, which allows our system to transferred the data to another app.   We I know if there a way for us to track the our user (our system user) that actually use the app? Any suggestion or work around it that you guys can suggest is highly appreciated!

Hi, Lets assume that I have a trigger, trigger have a input field: { key: 'table_id', label: 'Table', required: true, dynamic: 'tableList.id.name'} And basically, there is no other field for this trigger, I’m trying to figure out how to pass to the Table resource a value from this trigger, fe: { key: ‘value’ } I’ve tried it like this: (z: ZObject, bundle: Bundle) => bundle.inputData.key = 'value',{ key: 'table_id', label: 'Table', required: true, dynamic: 'tableList.id.name'} but without luck, operation.perform from table resource had empty bundle.inputData. Also tried computed input field does not hide from user, so this is also not an option to

Hi, I am trying to connect to our api using - API key authentication option. Api is reachable from outside. Yesterday login was working ok. Today no matter what I keep on getting this message (see attachment) Checked on the online incident tracker Zapier but nothing showing. Thank you

I have an application (we had it built as I’m not tech-savvy) that a client asked if we could integrate using Zapier.  We’d like to learn what’s involved in doing this . . . can anyone advise what’s involved or who / how / where to go to get help with this?  Thanks in advance.

Hi, I am building a custom app. Creating the authentication section, using basic auth option. Our app uses email instead of username for login, is it possible to change it so it would ask for an email instead of a username?   Thanks

Hi Zapier team,   I saw that a few other developers ran into the same problem. I created an App and wanted to publish it now. I tested and it + created at least 5 Zaps, nevertheless it shows me the following warnings in the side menu and prevents me from publishing. Could you please resolve this also for my account or help me here?     I know this whole error validation is important for you to keep the quality of submissions high, but honestly from a developer experience this was pretty annoying since the validation was very buggy and didn’t properly work even when I fixed some of the bugs. You should probably look into this again with a product manager how to improve the experience here. Though I did like the Go to trigger feature.   Best, Mathias

(Also posted at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62351427/pagination-how-can-i-store-and-provide-a-non-numeric-page-identifier) I am trying to add pagination to my Zapier trigger. The API I am using for the trigger supports pagination, but not using a page number in the traditional sense (ie. page 1,2,3,...). Instead, the API response includes a key (ie. "q1w2e3r4") which should be passed as a parameter to the next request to get the next page of results. From looking at the docs, I can use {{bundle.meta.page}} (which defaults to 0 unless otherwise set). I am trying to set {{bundle.meta.page}} in the code editor, with an example shown below: const options = { url: 'company_xyz.com/api/widgets',

Hey there, I have what may be a simple question, but it’s been challenging to self-service an answer.   Scenario: I’m creating our first Zapier integration. For now, I’m focusing on triggers, which correlate to several webhook types that our platform offers. Each webhook type gets its own specific trigger. I’m also using the visual/web builder as I’m not actually a developer myself.   Our Subscribe request: { "data":{ "attributes":{ "subscriptions":[ "course_completed_events" //corresponds to selected trigger ], "url": bundle.targetUrl } }}   Our system returns the following: { "data": { "type": "webhook_endpoints", "id": "3c0cd54b-e116-4dff-ad40-18958e59841b", "attributes": {

I am trying to publish my app (gitscrum.com) and finding some errors that I am unable to find the solution. I need help with: - Static Sample Contains a Subset of Keys from Live Result - Polling Sample Contains a Subset of Keys from Live Result - ISO-8601 Date / Time Format in Task History Where can I find the documentation for solving these problems?

http://joxi.ru/8AnEyO1i76KOb2http://joxi.ru/KAxBEN0U1xwNnm I use KEY API authentication. I also have a Site url field. Can I use this value in the future for the Perform list? http://joxi.ru/VrwE0NGi8yg9G2 As I understand it, I have to send data to this hook when I create something to the trigger. Then why do we need the Perform List option? I can not understand the differences between hook and perform list option.

Hey folks,   Has anyone developed custom apps that authenticate with Workflowmax via OAuth2.0? I’m getting stuck on the base64 encoding requirements (you have to encode the Client ID which doesn’t seem possible in Zapier).   Thanks in advance!

When any data is added or updated on my server(database) i want to send that data to my zapier app(in trigger). i have tried with resthook but got confused, where the code is asking for subscribe and unsubscribe and endpoint url.   thank you.

Hello,   Currently we have 3 important triggers on our App and we want to add more triggers. How would we new important triggers on App for the users?

Problem I can’t seem to get the test data to work when testing a trigger we’ve created and I’m confused as to how I can dynamically set the sample data.    Background We’ve built a trigger that has a lot of static fields in the sample file. We have the ability to narrow those fields significantly if we could dynamically pull by a parameter. How do I dynamically pull for the sample file? How can I also get the test data trigger to work. Right now it just shows static sample data. We update our database when a zap fires so a request wont work more than once. Im just confused as to how the sample file and the test data should work. 

To-dos that must be addressed before your integration can be included in the App Directory: I’m getting a warning to change the Titlecase but when I do, the warning doesn’t go away. I even had just one word in the field - capitalized - and still got the error.    

We recently moved to StarChapter as our webhost, which comes with an events payment and registration framework.  How can I create a custom zap from scratch that can tap into the StarChapter account so that new event registrants trigger a ZAP?

I’ve looked at the four responses on this issue but haven’t been able to get them to work. I’ve reviewed this GitHub entry and have a sense for what it wants me to do, but not how I should implement it. My polling trigger API is trying to substitite my “_id” for the expected “id” element. Much like the other four posts on this problem have suggested. const options = { url: 'https://app.hiro.fm/api/products', method: 'GET', headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${bundle.authData.token}` }, params: { }}return z.request(options).then((response) => { response.throwForStatus(); const result = z.JSON.parse(response.content);

I want to build an Integration with Hiro.FM that allows Zapier users to ingest data into their Hiro account. I’ve spent a couple of days reading the Zap developer docs and feel a little overwhelmed. In order for a Zap to authenticate with HIRO, I presume HIRO needs to run an OAuth Provider.  I’ve been able to set this up and can exchange request tokens for access tokens. I’ve not been able  get this authentication working with the Zapier Dashbaord. My first question - How do I use the Zapier redirect URI in my code? My Express route looks like this, Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks  

Is there a way to allow zaps to define which URL to use for authentication and API calls? Using the app designer + env variables gives the “Only absolute URLs are supported” error, so I guess that’s out.

one of the app in Zapier, I had 2 versions. migrated one specific user from 2.0.0 to 3.0.0 then I can see the workflow got updated and pushing fine with the 3.0.0 version. But i can see the number of users count got not changed in zapier developer platform. Its same as before migrated one. may I know why its happening
