Update Jira ticket State in the middle of Zap

Hello,I am trying to create a Zap which will check if a technician is assigned to a Jira ticket, after x amount of time. I've got the logic down, but it seems like the Zap only retrieves data from Jira upon ticket creation. It does not look to refresh the data after the time delay, and relies on the original data provided.Is there a way to get Zapier to update the data from the ticket before making the filtered evaluation? I need for it to check again to see if a technician is now assigned after the time delayRegardsKinnon

Help with Clio to Trello Zap

We've had a Clio to Trello Zap working for quite some time. When a new "matter" is created in Clio, it creates a new card in Trello. It stopped working a couple days ago, so I went in to turn it off, and then test it and turn it back on. I can get through the test (it sends a test card as designed) but when I go to turn it "on", I get this error:Unable to create Webhook for matter {"error":{"type":"RecordInvalid","message":"Expired at is outside of allowed limit","errors":{"expired_at":["is outside of allowed limit"]}}}Is this a Clio issue, or a Trello issue, or a Zapier issue? I can't find information on this one anywhere.Thank you!

Created a Pipedrive deal from gmail but can't populate notes

Hello,I have a web contact form that sends gmail. I was able to create a zap that picks up the web contact email and create a deal in Pipedrive. What I can't figure out is how to populate the notes field in the deal from the email message body. I assumed that would be pretty easy to do, but I don't see any obvious way to go about it. A little help?Thanks

Basecamp To Do to Outlook

I was wanting to setup up a zap when a new To Do is created it creates an Outlook Task for the assignee of the to do. I realize that the only option is to create an Outlook Event. But without hard coding a time stamp, the zap doesn't create an event. Is there a way to use the data natively available in Basecamp to successfully create an Event aka don't need to hard code in a time but simply use the Basecamp Due Date? Also, if I have multiple team members, is there a way to only send it to the member who is assigned the to do?

Trying to automate a specific email... help!

Hello, I am trying to automate an email series I have to send out to a number of people and it takes FOREVER. Bear with me through the details...I am the course scheduler for my department at a university. During the course scheduling period, I will send EACH teaching instructor their course load with some email text. The course load information can either come from an Excel spreadsheet with multiple rows dedicated to each class/lab/seminar etc, or from a PDF version with the same information broken down in a more paragraphical way.I am looking for a workflow that will select the chunk of rows from the spreadsheet that belongs to each professor, and send that information in the body of an email to said professor.Any suggestions?

Generate Google Sheet from Custom Fields in Clickup tasks

Hi, at work we use Clickup as a project management tool where a task is defined as a project. Had to do it that way to be able to use custom fields and be able to view all tasks/project in a specific way all together.But, we need to be able to report on some of these fields to other departments in a easy way, and the export functionality in Clickup itself is very limited. So I have set up a Google Sheet for this and I've tested Zapier for and it works as intended as it is generating a new row in the sheet when we are adding a new task/project in Clickup. However I am struggling big time with showing the custom fields as separate columns/cells in the Google Sheet. In a typical project we have 6-7 custom fields with for instance dropdowns to define the project type, various dates (including due date, but that one isn't a problem) and a field for commentaries.All of these fields are gathered together to the Google Sheet as two cells; one for the defined data of that custom field

How to call webhook url and not open an html result page?

I use Zapier webhook to find and update a record in AirTable. I put that link in the email and sent to someone. But when the person clicked on the link, webhook got called and opened up an html page with the result of the webhook calling. Is it possible not to open the html page? I did try silent mode but it still opened up a new web page. Or do I have to use other method completely?

Update any.do task from Google Calendar

Hi everyone,I'm looking for a way to update tasks in Any.do.I'm currently using a zap to create an any.do task when I create a Google calendar event. But I can't find the zap that will allow me to update the task that corresponds to my event when I move it.For example, I create a Google calendar event on Monday. My actual Zap creates a task on Monday in Any.do. I move the event to Friday in Google, I would like the task to move automatically in the same way in Any.do. Any zap that would do this?Thank you so much!V.

How can i specify the project i want, and only when a specific status or field is updated?!Thanks for the help

Email by Zapier not working!

Hi guys! I have created a Zap that sends an email each time a form gets completed on my website (the form is made by Active Campaign which is embedded on to my site)The idea is that once the form gets submitted the results are sent (by Email by Zapier) to the person that completed the form and also to us (again by Email by Zapier)The zap is working fine, however I have received a couple of random error messages when 2 or more people complete the form at the same time saying "Sorry! That is too many emails sent. Please try Mandril, Mailgun, Gmail, or others for bulk email."I am a little confused as this is not something relating to bulk emails as each one is different and after the error when one person completes the form it works as normal.Any ideas on how to fix it or get round it?

Following up with sales team after event

Hi there,I am trying to follow up with an external sales team through email after an event ends. We do NOT share a CRM which has complicated this.Here's what I thought I could do Zap 1:Call center uses airtable form with lead informationZapier creates a google event with relevant lead information in itI manually add a closer based off location and availabilityZap 2After google event ends, zapier sends an email to the closers email asking how the proposal wentThe issue here is that if I create an event with two guests (lead and closer), I can't send an email to ONLY the closer.If I could make a custom property titled closer, I could, but that doesnt seem possible with Google Calendar.Just typing this out, has made me think of a less than ideal situation where I create two google events, one for the closer and one for the lead, though I'd rather not do that.Any ideas on how I can do this?Also I use Pipedrive CRM for myself if there were a way to create a follow up after an

Populating a Docusign Form Template with Woocommerce Checkout Data?

Hi all--I've successfully enabled a zap that triggers a signature request in Docusign on certain Woocommerce transactions, which is working well. What I'd love to do is to populate more of the form fields on the Docusign template with data from the Woocommerce checkout transaction so the customer doesn't have to enter their information twice. Can anyone point me in the right direction for that? Would I need to capture the contents of the checkout fields first in some sort of intermediary document and then pass that to Docusign as a new template, then request signature? That seems klunky, but it might work.Thanks in advance for any ideas you may have.--jag

Data field sometimes does not get pulled

Hi,I have a Zap from ActiveCampaign to Vcita. It's triggered by a 'New automation webhook', which gets called in AC at the end of an automation. Part of that automation involves setting the value in a custom field. 99%, the Zap pulls the value from the field correctly. But sometimes it does not pull the value of the field, instead passing a blank value to Vcita. But the contact in ActiveCampaign shows a non-blank value. Why? Here is the entry in ActiveCampaign with value setHere is the Zap for the data output of ActiveCampaign. Note there is no "Marketing Source" field that pulled: Normally there would be a "Marketing Source" field set in step one above. For someone reason it is not in this instance. Why?
