Extracting text from RSS feed

Is there a way I can extract texts from a website (blogs)?I am trying to add “New items in RSS feed” as a trigger. And then extract the entire text from the new blog posts on the website. And then have it send it to chatgpt so that it could summarize the post for me.

Searching the Source Code of a provided URL

I’m trying to stack a couple of zaps to see if there is a blog or an rss feed associated with a given URL. I would like to be able to have Google Sheets load the source code of a given URL and search for the words “blog” or “rss feed” and then extract the associated blog URL or rss feed URL, but “Parse Webpage” doesn’t seem to be loading the entirety of the HTML source code. Is there a workaround? For example the URL https://www.samhsa.gov/ has “<a href="/blog" class="sf-depth-2">SAMHSA Blog</a>” on line 289 of it’s source code. And the URL https://www.samhsa.gov/blog has “<a alt="rss logo" aria-label="RSS Feed" href="https://www.samhsa.gov/blog/rss">RSS Feed </a>” on line 2545 of it’s source code, which is the value I’m hoping to automate a search for based on th initial URL. Any ideas? Is there a webhook? or a Python code solution?

How do I filter Google Sheets data by date range in a Zap to include only sales from a Shopify shift?

I think I have my zap mostly figured out but one thing that’s giving me issues is the Google sheet lookup step. I’m trying to return values between two date/time ranges but I haven’t figured out how to do that. My hunch is that a spreadsheet style formula or maybe search operators could do the trick but I haven’t been able to figure it out yet.Some context on the zap: I’m trying to send sales info (item names and quantities) from Shopify to a google chat message at the conclusion of each shift with the end goal of allowing the employee to get a summary of what was sold so they know what to restock.

How can I query a Google Sheets from an input field?

I’ve got a site built in Framer.The client installs a product and they only serve a few customers at a time.They use a master google sheet to hold all the customer info, as well as the customer’s order status. I’d like to set up a part on the site where the customer inputs their order number, and they are shown the order status. Is there a straightforward way to do this?

Issue with Zap ignoring Klaviyo list and mismatching tags in Airtable

Hello!I currently am creating a zap that will see new orders appear in my airtable, search that email for a matching email in klaviyo, and if they belong on a certain list mark them in airtable with a specific tag.however, it seems to be completely ignoring the list and marking seemingly randomly anybody with a profile in klaviyo. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Can I auto-update Google Sheets with SurveyMonkey responses via Zapier without extensions?

I was directed here via SurveyMonkey - I currently have a Google Sheet spreadsheet where I collect SurveyMonkey completed survey responses. The problem I am encountering is that new responses can only be updated when I open Google Sheet + SurveyMonkey extension. I would like to see if it was possible to use Zapier so that new responses can automatically be pull in without having to either open 1) Google Sheet + SurveyMonkey extension or 1) SurveyMonkey Extension.  Thank you in advance for any suggestion.

How do I connect Firefish to Activecampaign?

Hi! I want to connect Firefish to Activecampaign, so that anyone who signs up to our Firefish Recruitment database, their contact details automatically go through to Activecampaign.  However, these are the only options available on events, neither of which is what I want. Please can someone advise me if there is another way to do it? Thanks!

Loop through all future calendar events in MS Outlook Calendar

I couldn’t figure out if it is possible to find multiple calendar events with “Find Calendar Event in Microsoft Office 365” and then use “Create Loop From Line Items in Looping by Zapier” to loop through these events.Regards Ingo

Post new Gmail attachments to Webhook

Hi,I have a POST endpoint to accept a file.I would like to post New Gmail Attachment to that endpoint. I have tried “Gmail New Attachment” + “POST webhook” but I can’t figure out how to find the correct data to post. I can receive the webhook request from Zapier but looks like the file data I receive is a long base64 string and result in a .txt file.

Intercom actions need improvements

Hi there,We’ve been using Zapier for a while now and utilizing it’s integration with Intercom yet we’ve been experiencing issues that are caused because the current Zapier actions need to change. The main issue is because there are users who have multiple User ID’s under a single email address. So there are actions where a user can be updated using both email AND user id and some that don’t, causing an error and preventing the zap to perform the desired action (attached photo below):

How do I create a Zap with conditional event times from TickTick to Outlook (excluding specific lists)?

Hello All,I am fairly new to Zapier. I am trying to create a Zap that pulls my TickTick into Outlook calendar. I have it working for the most part with a few exceptions.  I need it to work as followsIf Ticktick task has no time then create an All Day Event on Office 365.  However if it does have a time then use that time to put that task on the calendar for that specified time. Right now I have the first part setup but not sure how to set this up.  Also how do I exclude certain Ticktick List from not running at all. I believe I saw this somewhere but not sure where it is located now. Thank you in advance.

Zapier Tables Error code 400: Error found at request.body.payload.record_id: Cannot create ULID from string of length 8 (general:validation_error)

 I can’t seem to figure out why I continue to get this error. I simply want to update a record in a table based on contact info from my CRM. Ignore the additional paths, I will clean those up later. I will start with the error I am receiving at Step 13, then back it up to where the data is starting to be pulled from.  Step 10 finds data in my CRM by using the Client ID linked to the Task (that was created in the CRM) that starts the whole Zap.The static data I am looking for in my CRM comes over as a custom field. I need the custom field value of ‘3 Months’ to create a new task to end this zap At this point, I found that Zapier does not like my custom data fields so I have to format the data in steps 11 and 12, otherwise Step 13 is trying to update a record with a string that looks like what I have highlighted in yellow in the screenshot below. I have multiple custom field values in my CRM. The meeting cadence just happens to be the first that zapier sees. Everything else is separated

How do I use Zapier to create new contacts in HubSpot from specific Slack messages and avoid duplicates?

I have a Zap with trigger being Slack step “New Message Posted to Channel in Slack”. Formatter actions then extract data points from hte message, and should feed it into hubspot, create new contacts and map the data points to defined hubspot field.  Several things the Zap does/does not do, I’d need to adjustcurrently the zap creates an empty contact account in hubspot (not even sure how this is possible without e.g an email address), for every other message, or even a message in a thread, of the selected channel. But I ONLY want a contact created when the message is in the specific format, that I selected in the trigger step, or that contains an email, not for every message of the channel The Zap would ideally also need to check if this email adress already exists in Hubspot, and only create a new contact, if it does not exist, is this possible?

Unable to Update Existing Shopify Contact in Zapier: ID Not Found in "Find and Create Shopify Contact" Step

Hi, On my zap, I encounter a problem.In the "Find customers" step on Shopify: this allows you to see if there already exists a Shopify contact with this email address. -if no, then it creates a contact and continues the zap (in this case no problem) -If yes, then it does not create a Shopify account and it continues the zap: PROBLEM I wish it would UPDATE the contact!! I tried to place an 'update shopify contact' step after the 'find and create shopify contact' step. But it doesn't work because it doesn't find the ID. Maybe I didn't find the right ID. I then tried to set a delay of one minute thinking that as the contact had not yet been created then the ID would not come up. But that didn't work either I do not know how to do

How do I split Likert scale responses from WPForms into separate columns in my Google Sheets using Zapier

I’m trying to build a Zap between WP Forms and Google Sheet where Likert Scale fields have been used. I need to split the data on the Likert Scale into the individual responses. For example, the form asks:Answer these questions regarding the didactic (self-paced) online portion of the courseThe objectives of the ERA Recertification course were clear and met by the online course instruction: Reviewing the ERA textbook was helpful: For my immersive course, I chose a topic I am unfamiliar with:    For each one the user selects either: Strongly Agree, Agree, Somewhat Agree, Disagree, or Strongly Disagree.I need the output in the Google Sheet to break it out so that each of the three questions/responses is its own column. When I try to use a Formatter Step and set the separator to the “:” I get the response I need, but I also get the beginner of the next question. For example, the output is…1 The objectives of the ERA Recertification course were clear and met by the online course instructio
