Response content is too large to be processed

I’m working on a Zap that downloads the Zoom audio recording and saves it to Google Drive.I’ve been able to build out the Zap to successfully download and save the transcript from Zoom to Google Drive, but I’m running into an error with the audio recording because it’s > 5 MB.For the transcript, I:get the download URL and download access token from zoom. The download access token must be passed as a bearer token in the authentication header. Pass that to a Zapier Webhook get Request. This returns a file hydrate token I use the Files by Zapier to read that file and get the text Then I use that response to save it as a Google Doc. Easy peasy!Zoom does have an action to download the meeting recording, but that’s a bit too big for storage purposes. I.e., sometimes that’s 250 MB whereas the Audio file is only 6 MB.I don’t think I can directly pass the download URL to Google Drive because I need to pass the download access token in the header.Any suggestions on how to get around this 5 MB

What is the correct input of the Basic Auth field?

Hello,I am on the zapier free trial subcription.I created the following 2 step zap. The purpose is to retrieve google worksheet data, map them and process the data by a custom wordpress app.Update or New Google Sheet Post Webhook by ZapierFor step 2 I have trouble authenticating.I made custom plugin code for Wordpress. Additionally, I set-up a WP application password.In Step 2 there is an action option. There is an input field called Basic Auth. Here there is only 1 input field. Is this correct for a username and a password? I tried the following:Username:password | myname:test1234 Username:myname | password:test1234 Base64 encode value (which seems logical as there is only 1 input field)For username I used the username of the wp-user and the password of the wp applicaton password.But it keeps throwing 401 whatever I try. What is the correct input of the Basic Auth field?Do I need a webhook plugin to get this working? Kind regards,Wes

How can I create Trello checklist from PDF email attachment line items?

Hi All - Getting to know Zapier and loving it but I have a quick question.  I am wanting to create a new checklist on a new card on an existing list in Trello using the line items from a pdf attachment on a new email. I have successfully found the email attachment, created a new card on the existing list on Trello and even named the card using the email attachments file name.  Its all straight forward until I get to the "add a checklist" part.  How do I use the body of the pdf attachment to create the checklist with and how to specify which part of the attachment body I want it to create the checklist with?  Happy to hear its not possible but I'm sure I'm just doing it wrong.  Thanks

How do I upload a single file to Microsoft Sharepoint when a Microsoft Outlook email contains multiple attachments?

Hello there!One of the steps of my workflow automation is saving a PDF attachment from an Outlook email (trigger is new email in my specific mailbox folder and I would like to keep it that way). Unfortunately, when there is a photo in the signature, my zap sees it as an attachment too. Through my outlook zap step fields, I can only see: Files (Exists but not shown). How can I separate the attachments to save the right one on Sharepoint?Those attachments are coming across in my Zap as a comma-separated single field. Majority of the time, I would like to keep the PDF.Thank you for your help!

Zap triggers on Notion card comments instead of status change after 24 hours

Hi everyone,I set up an automation in Zapier to send a message in Slack if a card in our Notion board is moved to a certain status and hasn't been moved again after 24 hours. However, I'm encountering an issue where the automation triggers every time someone comments on the card, not just when it hasn't been moved.Has anyone experienced this issue or have any suggestions on how to fix it?Thanks in advance for your help and I’ll be really glad to jump on a call anytime just to fix this issue asap.

How do I connect a form to Zapier Chatbots for dynamic responses?

I am currently testing out Zapier’s functionality and just trying some things out to see whether I want to pursue using Zapier. Currently, I want to connect a form to a chatbot but I cannot seem to figure out how. For example, I have a form that asks for the name of a celebrity. When the user submits it, I want it to take the user straight to the chatbot and then the bot says something like “ask me anything about {{params.celebrity}}” How could I do something like that?

Marketo Access Token being invalid even tho it is still valid

Hi all, I’m having trouble populating a custom field in Marketo from Zapier as sometimes it will throw 601 errors for the Marketo API.Leaving some screenshots:API failed with a 601 error with the b0246… access token.Access token that was generated is valid for over close to 1 hour (time I was checking was 16:30) so this token was still valid.I recheck Marketo and it is the same token.I refresh the token from Zapier by entering the sequence and MANUALLY retrieving the token from Zapier. (Like I did in our call, manually retested the token inside Zapier)Token is finally valid as I MANUALLY retest the API POST request in the last step.It is not a Marketo issue, it seems to be a Zapier one. Token sometimes will work and sometimes won’t, like this example.Can anyone help? May it be some latency issue of the token not being properly inserted in the API call? Or maybe it will take some time to very that the token is indeed valid? Thanks​​​​​​

Problem with replacing attachments in Asana tasks

Dear all,We are working on a solution for attaching social media image files to new Asana tasks. Some of those tasks have several images, to be posted together. The Zap we have build so far extracts the first four characters from the file names (‘S00X') and whenever there are files that are named as ‘S00X-01’, 'S00X-02’, it attaches them to the same task.Here’s a screenshot of how the Zap works now: File is added to the G Drive folder Truncate the first 4 digits of its name = truncName ‘Delay after queue', so that zap waits for the previous file to be processed before starting with the next one. They have to be executed consecutively, otherwise it doesn’t find the tasks with the same name and creates duplicates. Find task in Asana with the title truncName. If no such task, create the task truncName and attach the file to it If truncName Asana task exists, add the file to it.  However, the problem is that whenever we need to replace some of the attachments that come after client

How do I include Ko-fi attachments in new Trello cards created from commissions?

Hello, I am trying to automate my workflow so that when I receive a commission through ko-fi, a card on Trello is created. The one thing I am having trouble with is that my commissions usually require that the client sends an attachment of their reference sheet in order for me to draw their character. How do I make it so that when a commission is ordered, the  attachment also appears on the newly created Trello card. I am mostly getting stuck on what I type for the “card name” since I want the attachment to go with its corresponding client’s card. I hope this is clear enough, I’m brand new to zapier and it looks like it could be a big help to my work.TLDR; When a commission comes through I want Trello to make a new card that also includes the attatchment from ko-fi.
