Find Message in Slack from Automation

I am trying to Find a Message in Slack that was posted by the Work Flow Builder Automation. The query in Zapier returns no results. The query in Slacks native search also returns no results; however when I deselect `Exclude automations` from the Slack filter, the message appears in the search results.Is there a way to include automations in the query within Zapier?

Assign Account Owner in Dynamics

I am creating a Zap with the Trigger being a form submission from an Unbounce landing page and the Action being to create a new Account in Microsoft Dynamics 365. I am able to pull in all the necessary information except for the Account Owner. I am not seeing this field as an option in the Zap setup. When viewing my test lead submission in Dynamics, the Owner is listed as me. Has anyone found a workaround to set the Account Owner upon transfer of the lead information?

Updating Inventory/Product Quantity in Shopify

 I operate a unisex brand but have needed to categorised the products on the website as male and female. Can a Zap be set up so that when a new order is received, say for a "male" product, it automatically updates the product count for the corresponding item in the "female" inventory?

Correcting / Cleaning Mis-spelt Email IDs using the Formatter Step

I have a Zap that pulls leads from Facebook Instant Forms (Lead ADs) and adds them to a MailChimp Audience List (which then fires off a drip sequence / mail automation to nurture those leads) and also adds them to a LinkedIn Custom Audience List (for us to use this to re-market to those folks on LinkedIn).The issue here is when someone enters / mis-spells their email ID i.e. :1) gmai.com (missing the L before the .com)2) gaml.com (missing the I after g)3) gmal.com (missing the I before l)4) gmail.co (missing the M at the end)5) And so on and so forth...When this happens, the contact does not get added to MailChimp as it throws an error assuming this to be a fake email ID (obviously because of the typo) and we end up having to manually go into MailChimp and renter the details manually.Naturally all further steps that depend on email ID (adding them to remarketing list on LinkedIn etc) also fail because of this.I was able to figure out that using the Formatter Step > Text > Replace

Connecting Regiondo & Mailchimp

Hello Everyone, unfortunately I couldn’t find any relating article to this. I have set up Regiondo (booking platform) with Mailchimp. The goal is: When someone books a Retreat over Regiondo we want to send the customer an automated series of mails until the Event starts. First question: I can only select a specific already existing customer booking and not a general “tag” like “Apnoe & Yoga Retreat” as a trigger. How do I know know that Zapier uses the correct product for the following mails?Second question adding up: We have one Retreat starting in July and one in September.  You can choose this in a drop down field on Regiondo. We would like to welcome the customers with “Welcome in July” and “Welcome in September” … How does that work if the Zap starts from the same booking page?I created the following journey in Zapier: I choose everything correctly, yet I keep getting those Pop-ups when I try to test: What did I do wrongly here?  Thank YOU so so much for your help! Kind regard

Different Calendly zaps creating duplicates in Wealthbox

Hi all! I am new to zapier and have been having an issue with using 2 different calendly links and its creating duplicates in Wealthbox. Right now I am running 2 different zaps, one for hour long in person meetings, and another for 30 minute phone calls. Also in my wealthbox, I have it set up to color code if the meeting is in-person (blue) or if it is a phone call (Gray). When someone schedules a phone call it will say “*Name* - Phone Call” which is exactly how I have it set up. However, then it will duplicate that event create another event at the same time, one showing up as a phone call (Gray) and another showing up as a meeting (blue). This is also happening the other way. If someone schedules an in-person meeting it will create a meeting event (blue) in wealthbox saying “Name - In person meeting” but it will also create another event at the same time showing up as a phone call (gray). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I badly need help to integrate Apollo with Pipedrive. 

Please help. I badly need help to integrate Apollo with Pipedrive.  Can anybody here help me with the step by step process on how to do it? I tried asking the AI but it’s no help at all. Support is impossible to reach too. Here’s what we need exactly: When an email has been sent to a contact in a sequence in Apollo, reflect the content of the email to PipeDrive under History in the email section For context: Contacts that we reach out to on Apollo are already existing on pipedrive. Therefore, there is no need for us to create a zap for creating a lead on Pipedrive from Apollo.  Is this possible? I hope someone can help me. Thank you.

ETA for Stripe adapter to support test environment

Hi, is there an ETA for when the Stripe adapter will support the test environment?I have seen other posts which reference a feature request that can be upvoted, but the link was not included. Can you please share that link so people can upvote for this vital feature?We can’t really implement zaps that we cannot test… and workarounds like using webhooks and code seem to defeat the no-code benefits from Zapier. Would prefer for the actual Stripe adapter to support the test environment.Thanks

How do I automate Acuity bookings from ThriveCart bump offer purchases?

I want to use a bump option in thrivecart for a package that I offer in acuity. The idea is they purchase an online course through thrivecart with a bump for a discounted 3-pack of private coaching with me. They purchase the 3-pack through acuity and then can schedule their 3 sessions on my calendar.  When they purchase the 3-pack, it’ll generate a code for them to use when scheduling so they aren’t charged.  I don’t want my client to have to make two separate purchases.  I want it to be one seamless transaction where they pay for their course on thrivecart and their coaching package on acuity all at once.  This means they need to get the coupon code generated in acuity and then sent to their email so they can schedule sessions with me. Is there a way to set this up?  Thanks!

How do I check a Stripe payment link to see if a client has paid or not?

Hi, I’m creating a system that sends Stripe payment links to customers and then also checks if the customer has paid or not when asked. But I’m having a trouble here because I’m just testing out with a test Stripe account and because of that I don’t know will it work with a real Stripe account. I’m adding my workflow down here, The last one “Find Payment in Stripe” will not be on the same Zap with others but I included it here to show them all in one screenshot, the Zap with the “Find Payment in Stripe” action only get called when the customer says that he/she paid to the chatbot. The reason why I’m asking is this: In the action “Find Payment in Stripe”, there is a description on an input like this “Enter the Stripe ID of the payment intent to find. (e.g. pi_51kxCxb1NFWajM)” but I need to insert the ID that the “Create Payment Link” action gave me as a response which is something like “plink_1234” on the Zapier example description for it. So one starts as “pi” and the other starts as “

How to automate a follow-up list

Hi, I send highly personalized emails to cold prospects. It’s hard for me to capture all the emails, as the personalization already takes a long time. I wanted to know if I could use Zapier to add every new email address I reach out to into a spreadsheet. This would save me a lot of work and time. Thanks all!P.S. If it’s possible to also add the first name and Google doc URL (in the personalized outreach strategy we use, we send a personalized GDoc tp each prospect), that’d be awesome too. But no worries if not; that’s just extra.

Create Multiple Columns in Google Sheets if they do not exists

With Google Sheets, I want to create multiple columns in an existing worksheet if they do not exist already.For example: I want to create 3 columns - “A”, “B” and “C” if they do not exist. Currently, I am only able to do the creation part by having 3 “Create Spreadsheet Column” steps. My question is -- can I do this with fewer steps + how to perform the check to skip the columns that are already present?

How to remove role in Discord when payment is cancelled in ThriveCart?

This post was split from the topic:  @SamB We are having a similiar issue when trying to remove a role from a Discord member. Our Zapier set up looks like this:Step 1: Recurring Payments Cancelled in Thrivecart → (This has a green check)Step 2: Find User in Discord→ based on Thrivecat email address (we think this is the only common thread between the two) (This has a green Check)Step 3: Remove User Role in Discord (this step we can not get to work)Step 4: Assign User Role in DiscordEssentially what we are trying to do is when someone cancels their payments we want them to have their role as an “all access” to a lower role within Discord.I have searched high and low for a tutorial on this and can’t find one anywhere.Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
