Auto-filling webforms with Zapier (or another tool)

So I have a client with a custom-built CRM that doesn't have an API.Developing one isn't an option right now - so instead they are looking for options to auto-fill and submit some input forms they've created.Anyone have any experience/suggestions about this?

Running a Webhook with Line Items

Hey everyone, Just wanted to know if anyone else has come across this. I am getting data from one webhook with a GET request and it returns it as JSON. I am then trying to run a webhook based on this return of data but it is taking the data like field1,field2 and providing it and not sending field1 and then trigger again with field2. I have tried using the Formatter step to make line items of the fields and it still feeds into the webhook like the above example. Has anyone got a clean solution for this? The dirty way that I would do it is to make rows on a google sheet with the line item support and then trigger based on that but wondering if there is a cleaner way?Thanks!

Best way to easily test a webhook trigger for a Zap?

What's the best way to manually trigger (POST or GET) a Zapier webhook to test the outcome of my Zap? I know I can put all of the info in the URL with ?key=value&key2=value but with really long values and 5+ keys, that's going to be a pain to do each time. I thought of creating a separate Zap using Push by Zapier or a "New Email" trigger with a webhook action to then trigger the Zap I'm trying to test, but that seems a bit complex. Is there a better way?

Zapier wants to know: What are your favorite Zaps when attending a conference?

Hey, Zapier users! I’m Janine 👋, and am an editor here at Zapier. We are working on a piece about making sure needed work gets done while attending a conference, trade show, or other event, and I’d love to feature some of your favorite Zaps that help you do that in the article. (It’s still being researched, but we expect it to be live within the next four weeks.) We’ve got our own ideas, but I would love to feature tried-and-true techniques from those of you who have put Zapier to work in this way, and stories about how it’s helped. (We expect to feature some of your ideas in the piece, so be sure to let me know if you’d like a shout-out if we do!)

Google Sheets IMPORTXML is still "Loading..." when my Zap reads the cell. Need the values tho.

Hi everyoneso, following up on a recent discussion on how to scrape data from web to GSheets via IMPORTXML (THANKS A LOT! 😊) (or, better, some third party GSheet addon for importing XML since IMPORTXML doesn't always work for me somehow, *have you encountered the same?*) https://community.zapier.com/discussion/152/does-anyone-know-of-any-other-smart-ways-to-scrape-data-from-websites#latest)I now have the issue that the IMPORTXML is still Loading data when my Zap runs and wants to extract the data from the IMPORTXML, so it is sometimes returning "Loading...". How would you go about this? I can insert a WAIT step of course and only use one row for data extraction and then append the values-only to a second worksheet containing raw data. Is that what you would do? Somehow it doesn't look that sexy to me.

Basecamp to Mailchimp Zap

Hello Everyone!I am trying to setup a zap where when a new comment is posted in a Basecamp project, that note UPDATES a Mailchimp campaign and then SENDS the campaign. I'm able to throw the comment from Basecamp into a new campaign "Create Campaign in Mailchimp" and then send the campaign "Send Campaign in Mailchimp".But my problem is, I don't want a new campaign created every single time. I just want a Mailchimp campaign to be edited THEN sent. Is this possible? (see attached photos).

What different ways could you create a lookup table?

The lookup table function in the Formatter by Zapier app is super helpful for creating lookup steps (check out this help guide if it's new to you), but it has its limitations. Users will sometimes want to create a lookup table that will need to be updated frequently, or they might want a lookup table that will need to be used for more than one Zap. Have you found different ways to create Lookup tables that get around these limitations? Does anyone have a lookup table that can be updated via Zap, for example?

Help crafting an Airtable search formula in my Zap

Hey team!I am working on a Zap and trying to use a search formula to be able to find a phone number when there are multiple phone numbers in a cell. These are text strings and not linked records as I know linked records are identified by ID. Forewarning, I'm terrible with crafting formulas!Here is where I'm at with the formula:Here is the formula in textual format if you want to play with it:=IF(ISNUMMBER(SEARCH({{68474804__fromPhoneNumber}},{Client phone for Zap})),{{68474804__fromPhoneNumber}},"False")Basically, what I want to happen is for the search formula to look at a comma-separated list of phone numbers, see if the phone number from Ring Central is in that list and if so, return the number.Here are some modifications/things I know that need to change:Airtable doesn't seem to support ISNUMBER so that will have to be removedI actually don't care if the phone number itself is returned. Returning "True" or "False" will work just fine.Maybe @O

Searching for multiple files in Google Drive and retrieving the list

I have a workflow where I search for the title of a file in Google Drive. The search results in multiple files (which is correct) and I have to look at all of them and their parent folder name.It would be a lot easier if I got an email with a list of results and their (and their folder) links.Is this achievable using Zapier? The Find File action gives me one result only.

2-Step Verification Text Forwarding

I’m working with a company that has 2-step verification setup on quite a few systems using a specific phone number that each employee does not have access to. This same company also uses Slack internally. Is anyone aware of a method to create a phone number that can be used as their primary 2-step verification phone number and would then have the ability to forward to Slack in a Zap?In a scenario where I attempted to update their Amazon Seller’s account with a Google Voice phone number, it informed me that “this number is not valid”. I then attempted to utilize Twilio… The number was accepted, however the code was not forwarding at all and thus was undetected by Zapier to forward into Slack.

How to populate rows in Google Sheet with the same value without using code?

Hi everyone,I’m receiving data that is in line item format, and one is just a single value not in line item format, when I write these line-items to google sheets I want each row to contain the value from the single value, not just the first row. How do I do this? And no I do not know how many line items there will be, sometimes one, sometimes 50.Thanks!

Is there a way to merge paths back together?

Does anyone know how (or if it is possible) to rejoin paths?For example, a person signs up on one platform (a survey, a webinar, a whatever) and I want to add them to a CRM but I first have to check whether they are in the CRM or not. If they aren't they have to be added (and possibly have some initial tags added that someone already in the CRM would already have) so I split the path in two. But after that I want execute the same functions because I want to record something in the CRM about the actions they have taken.From what I can see I have to duplicate the steps on each path but maybe I am missing something.Maybe it is possible to simply call another Zap from the first one and have the extra functions in that second Zap or simply trigger that second Zap by adding the data from both paths to a Google Sheet and running from there.Any suggestions on how to make this supper simple are appreciated :-)Many thanks in advance.Paul

How Do I Instantly Send Google Sheets Data to Discord?

Hi, I've gotten a connection between Sheets & my Discord server working and the setting is set to instantly send data from a new row created in the Sheet to the server. When I test the connection I immediately get the test message sent to the server, but when I actually input the data in the new row in the sheet it takes 2-3 minutes before the data gets sent to Discord. Is this something that I can't change or is there a way to make the transmission immediate just like the tests are?

Can I use Zapier make a login call, receive token, then use that token in a Webhook to POST?

I am working with a new vendor that doesn't have many connections. They have an API and said first I need to make a login call then encrypt the token to make further calls. I need to do a simple pass from an Unbounce form (4-5 fields) into this vendor. I've used Webhooks in the past but normally I pass my credentials in the query string. This is the first time I've needed to do multiple calls into an API.Is there someone here who might be able to help? Or, a blog post you could point me to?Thanks in advance.
