I’m trying to create a trigger that can be search, in this case it’s for employees.I created a simple trigger (find_employee_by_name):const perform = async (z, bundle) => { return [ { id: '507d7a07-9c5f-4d36-8280-aa4651c65977', name: 'Jane Doe' }, { id: 'c960fa85-ce80-448b-bd8f-392df5715f45', name: 'Mike Canine' } ];};module.exports = { operation: { perform: perform, outputFields: [ { key: 'id', type: 'string' }, { key: 'name', type: 'string' }, ], }, display: { description: 'Find an employee by his or her name.', hidden: true, label: 'Find Employees', }, key: 'find_employee_by_name', noun: 'Employee',};then referenced it in a create:c

Hi there! Working on upgrading my company’s Zapier integration. We now have a “tags” taxonomy and when I’m setting up a Search action, they are in the response.While working through “Validate Integration” I’m getting the error:Field “tags” has inconsistent types, "list" in sample while "string" in output field definition Which makes sense, as it is a list. But when I go to adjust: “list” isn’t a type that’s selectable. I just used “string”, but want to ask what’s expected here. Thanks! 🙏🙏

Dear Sir / Madam,We are trying to embed the zapier Facebook integration as mentioned in this documentation;https://platform.zapier.com/embed/partner-api#profile( /v1/profiles/me).As mentioned in the document ,we have to redirect the user to authorize your application. But while procuring a token we need to get client_id,redirect_uri,scope information.We could not understand where and how we could obtain this information.Could you share a request where we can get tokens for our account? As request in document ;https://zapier.com/oauth/authorize?client_id={client_id}&redirect_uri={redirect_uri}&scope={scope}Best Regards.

Hi,I’m trying to create a connection to Galaxy Digital’s getconnected platform. I’m told they also use a ‘Bearer Token’ API key, which I have.I started with an API Key authentication with the following required fields, and even added the Header option suggested in another answer - did I get that right?  When I ran this and entered my 3 fields for authentication, I get the 401 error at bottom.Did I simply login invalid? Or is something wrong with my authentication?Thanks!JohnWe hit an error adding your new accountauthentication failed: The app returned "Unauthenticated.". What happened (You are seeing this because you are an admin): Stack trace: ResponseError: {"status":401,"headers":{"content-type":"application/json","retry-after":null},"content":"{\"message\":\"Una

Hi,We have a requirement that whenever the user is redirected to calendly app from our website, we have to fetch the meeting and participant information from any account the user has logged in and insert the data into our mysql database. The events created in the logged in calendly account should also be created in the zoom account they have logged in. The users may have their own calendly and zoom accounts. We have multiple clients and we should also fetch from which organization they have logged in. Please help ASAP. Thanks,Pavithra T

Hi, I have a problem, when I push a new version of the application using cli, with changed urls for subscritption, triggers etc., then when I integrate with this new version of application in zapier, the url addresses are unchanged, why is this happening?

Hello there, Our team has creating new private app, We are using API KEY auth. All was working good but I was validating the api key from our api getting proper response codes from api. When i get 200 response code connection will be created and when i get error response codes, it shows me message that error occured, but then why a connection is created even it was showing error. I’ve tried handling this with error handler ( throw the error ), tried many things but cannot be able to fix this issue.  Here is the Code   the error handled here with 404 code. Even after error handling the connection was created.

Hi I am trying to connect to zapier using oauth v2 when testing the authentication it's success. but when i create the action it's giving me invalid client_id error 401  

Could you please provide a detailed explanation of how API data that enters and exits Zapier is processed? Is the API data that Zapier processes strictly pass-through, or does it get stored at any point during or after processing? If the API data is stored, even temporarily, could you please provide more details on the following: a. How long is the data stored for? b. Where is the data stored (geographically and/or in terms of the specific database systems)? c. What security measures are in place to protect this stored data? d. Who has access to this stored data, and under what circumstances? If the API data is not deleted immediately after processing, could you please share your company's data deletion policies? Specifically, I'm interested in understanding how and when the data is deleted. Do you have any data minimization strategies in place? If yes, could you please share some details about these st

I have two triggers, get_entity and get_project, that I’d like relate in a parent-child hierarchy.  I’ve tried to adapt X for my needs.I created the get_entity trigger:const perform = async (z, bundle) => { return [ { id: 1, name: 'Entity 1' }, { id: 2, name: 'Entity 2' } ];};module.exports = { operation: { perform: perform, outputFields: [ { key: 'id', type: 'integer' }, { key: 'name', type: 'string' }, ], }, display: { description: 'Get a list of entities.', hidden: true, label: 'Get Entities', }, key: 'get_entity', noun: 'Entity',};I created the get_project trigger:const perform = async (z, bundle) => { const e1 = [ { id: 1, name: 'E

May I know if we can set a max length for a text field?Because I don’t see a max length here zapier-platform/packages/schema/docs/build/schema.md at main · zapier/zapier-platform · GitHub

I’m trying to integrate an automation between Greenhouse and Trello concerning the change on the candidate status to “hired”.What I would like to automate is the creation of a card template on Trello from this change on Greenhouse. Do you know how I could do that?

Hi,We have Scheduled Transfer set for every hour where we take a custom query to return new or updated records in several tables. Destination app is Zapier Tables where we Update or Create Records. Transfer works fine but we get Timeout while waiting for lock: saw-lock:TableCLIAPI@1.12.0:upsert_find_record::4942eec5cb61575ad14b6adfe5b45958 in Zapier Tables.Zapier table has 4000 records. My assumption is Zapier API is taking longer than 30 sec to find the record and when that happens we get Timeout error?Please let me know why we are getting this error and how can we resolve this.

The action is to update a Project. We want the user to be able to pass in the project id or the project name, since in our case project names are unique. Currently, we have two fields, one for the id and the other for the name. We have help text that says “Use this field only if the name field is empty” and a similar message on the other field. I think I have seen another zap integration that let the user switch between the two options in a single field but I am not seeing how to do that. Ideally we have the user choose which of the options they like in one field, instead of two. I know I could just use one field for both and do the check on the backend, but that would require doing the search for id and then searching for the name if id doesn’t turn up anything, but it would be nice to have a field that I could use that didn’t need that. 

Hi there,I have been added as an admin in an integration (aka node JS app) which I am supposed to develop further but on running “zapier test” I am Getting →  Error: You don't have access to integration ID xxxx (or it doesn't exist) Try running `zapier link` to correct that. On running “zapier link” on CLI I am getting this → ✔ Loading integrations? Which integration should be associated with the code in this directory? (Use arrow keys)and this is leading me no where I tried with the arrow keys, but nothing is happening and there are no messages or anything.

I’m using a REST API’s method that returns results in pages.  I’d like this to be the source of a “Search” action (basic integration; not CLI).What’s the recommended way to retrieve all pages?** edit ** I read that a polling trigger may work for this.  The API returns data in this format:{ "hasMoreResults": true, "continuationToken": "00000002-0000-0000-c800-000000000000", "additionalResultsUrl": "/v1/legalentities/00000/employeesIdentifyingData?continuationToken=00000002-0000-0000-c800-000000000000", "records": [ { "firstName": "First", "lastName": "Last", "socialSecurityNumber": "00000000", "employeeId": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-00000000", "employeeNumber": "012345", "birthDate": "2000-01-01T00:00:00", "status": "Active" }, ...

I’m trying to work through publishing tasks to validate an integration for publishing. Publishing tasks don’t update as I resolve issues.  Example: I get a publishing task stating Description should be 1-3 sentences, at least 40 characters, and no more than 275 characters. found 569 characters and 4 sentence(s)  I reduced the number of sentences and characters in my Zapier code, ran zapier build, and ran zapier upload. My new version showed up in the UI and I clicked on it. I’m still getting the same warning with an identical character and sentence count. I’m also having this happen with all other error types, such as missing id field. That’s just an example. I tried clearing my cookies and browsing data. That didn’t help. Any suggestions? Thanks

I’m trying to capture the access_token part of this response and use it in subsequent actions:{ "access_token": "eyJhbG[REDACTED]", "expires_in": 1800, "token_type": "Bearer", "refresh_token": "abcedfghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"}First, I created a computed field with a key of access_token.Next, I configured the session auth’s Configure a Token Exchange Request step:const options = { url: `https://apis.paycor.com/sts/v1/common/token?subscription-key={{bundle.authData.subscription_key}}`, method: 'POST', headers: { 'content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', 'accept': 'application/json' }, params: { }, body: { 'grant_type': 'refresh_token', 'refresh_token': bundle.authData.refresh_token, 'client_id': bundle.authData.clien

OAuth connection expires after one hour for the zap created in my integration. The zap doesn’t refresh the access token when it is expired. Please let us know how to resolve this issue.  https://zapier.com/app/history?root_id=197672545

*For Zapier CLII am currently working on writing unit tests for my zapier App. The documentation doesn’t really give me a good example of this, but is it possible to write unit tests to cover your input fields that contain altersDynamicFields?The reason why I would like to test this is because the input fields actually makes a call to my API that influences certain fields to appear because the input field has the altersDynamicFields property.Anybody know a good route for this?

We are integrating Zappier into our product. While any  user creates Zap we would like to store that Zap Webhook into our database. Can you please help on this. Currently we are doing as below  const options = { url: 'https://<ourserverwebsiteendpoint>', method: 'GET', headers: { 'Accept': 'application/json', 'X-USER-EMAIL': bundle.authData.user_email, 'X-API-KEY': bundle.authData.api_key }, params: { 'user_email': bundle.authData.user_email, 'api_key': bundle.authData.api_key, 'hookUrl': bundle.targetUrl, 'hookIsTesting': bundle.meta.isTestingAuth }}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; }); W

Hi Zapier Community,I have developed a Zapier integration for my company, which has 2 triggers:Get Sites (polling, calling out to our API and get a list of sites, the output of which is in the form below:[{ "id": 1, "site_id": 1, "site_name": "Number One Site"}]Alert (rest hook based, one of the user inputs is “sites”, a dynamic dropdown field, allows multiple, the source of sites comes from “Get Sites” trigger described above I then invite myself into the testing, but upon creating a zap using this integration, I found the “sites” user input is acting weird: the dropdown list loads fine, however when I selected any option, it’ll briefly stay in the input, then it gets cleared, which I clicked on it ag

Is it possible to test inputFields? I’d like to test it calls a specific endpoint to retrieve the schema and returns the correct values.

Hi! I’m looking for some assistance in troubleshooting the custom code I’m trying to write for a trigger I’m setting up. I’ve referenced the Zapier documentation and other posts similar to the situation here, here, and here. The solution for this situation appears to be wrapping the response as an array
