Encrypted data Formstack error "An encryption password was not supplied"

Hi,  I’m trying to pass encrypted information from Formstack through Zapier but am getting the error that "An encryption password was not supplied". Problem is, I don’t see a place where I can supply an encryption password in Zapier. Can Zapier handle encrypted data at all? Would another platform be better for this task? Thanks!

HTTP Request with Webhooks by Zapier - Connection timed out

Hi community, I'm encountering an issue with sending an HTTP request via Zapier, and I'm hoping someone might be able to offer some guidance or solutions. Here's the situation: I'm trying to send a specific HTTP request to an external service using "Webhooks by Zapier." The exact same request works perfectly when sent through Postman, but when I attempt it on Zapier, I consistently receive the following error:('Connection aborted.', ConnectionError("('Connection aborted.', error(110, 'Connection timed out'))")) I've also reached out to Zapier support for assistance, but unfortunately, they were unable to help resolve this issue.Would anyone have suggestions on what might be causing this problem, or any troubleshooting steps I could try? I'm wondering if this could be related to how Zapier handles connections or if there’s something specific to Zapier’s configuration I might be missing.I’m open to any ideas or if anyone has experienced something similar and could share their insights. T

How can I include a field from one trigger in another trigger's action?

Hello everyone, I have what is hopefully a simple question to solve. Thanks for any help.I am using Zapier with Squadcast, with limited success -- One issue, aside from it not working at all, is that the triggers from Squadcast don’t all have the same amount of descriptive information in them. The Squadcast trigger [New Audio Recording Available] has the fields (example values): File Name user_1_03-22-2024_150936Mp3 File URL https://storage.googleapis.com/squadcast-7fa10.appspot.com/….user_1_03-22-2024_150936.mp3Event Name audio.renderedWav File URL https://storage.googleapis.com/squadcast-7fa10.appspot.com/….user_1_03-22-2024_150936.wavID audio_renderedOrg ID ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP The Squadcast trigger [Recording Session Ended] has the fields: Name recording_session.endedWebhook ID recording_session_endedOrg ID ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPDescription a session has ended and been destroyedShow ID QRSTUVWXYZShow Name Test ShowSession Title Test SessionSession ID 12345678 What I would like to be able to

Does Zapier's YouTube trigger work with scheduled videos or only with immediate uploads?

The only YouTube Trigger options are on New Video… which is fine and works perfectly.  My question is, I upload video’s that are scheduled to be viewable the next day.  Will the zap trigger when I upload or if it will wait if it sees it’s scheduled?  If not, does anyone have a work around for this scenario?

Pushing Empty Data using webhook

Hi,We’re currently using heyflow app (Form) for our site.   What heyflow does is, the questions branches out depends on the user’s answer.  So I created a zap where I push Heyflow app to our CRM by using Webhook.Please see attached: In my zap.. you can see the fields were colored“Yellow”.  which means those fields are empty. Sadly,  if the fields are empty, it won’t pushed to our CRM..but it pushes if all the fields are there. So is there a setup I missed?  or would it be possible to push data..even if the fields are empty?  Hopefully somebody help me out with this. Thanks!

CloudConvert API restrictions with Google Drive?

Hi all,Trying to get a simple Zap going here to convert files on my Google Drive folder if they’re over 150MB and place the converted ones in a different folder (so they in turn can be used by another Zap that sends them to my Youtube channel).It picks up the trigger fine on (when a new file is added to my Google Drive folder), but fails when trying to use the CloudConvert API with:Failed to create a convert file in CloudConvertWhile requesting "dev_file" from Google Drive we ran into an error: 223325251 is too big, 150000000 is the maxIs this kind of a catch-22, because the 150MB limit for Google Drive is still there when trying to reduce the file itself? If I convert the file manually on CloudConvert’s site, it works fine and saves it back to my Google Drive at a smaller size of around 40MB with the test file I used with a quality reduction.Over a few nights, I tried to look into Google Scripts instead with AI’s help, and at one point got it going there but the resulting file was sti

How do I find a Discord user by their server nickname?

Apologies if I posted this in the wrong space...Is it possible for ya’ll to add the user’s nickname to part of the query when using the “Find User in Discord” event.I am trying to make it possible to add roles to users based on how they sign up for an event on a spreadsheet, however most people’s nicknames do not match their discord username due to server requirements.Since “Nick” is part of the output data when you find a user, surely it could also be part of the input, right?Or maybe there is already a way to do this that I am missing (aside from making people put their gov name as their discord username).Thanks.

How can Zapier connect farmers with interested consumers for local produce?

Dear community. I'm looking for a solution that might not be so complicated and wanted to ask if you think I can implement it with zapier.we want to bring regional agricultural producers and consumers closer together to strengthen the circular economy. To do this, it would be helpful if interested buyers knew when and where which products are available fresh.To summarize, I have the following in mind. The farmer uses a simple online form to announce which products he has available at what time and where and when they can be picked up or bought.Zapier then compares the announced product with an extensive customer database and matches the offer with the customer's interests. if there is a match, the potential customer is informed via a message channel of their choice (whatsapp, email, sms, telegram, ....).I would be very happy to receive messages.Since this "Rural RSS Feed" is only in the test phase, development costs or even expensive app developments should be avoided for the time bein

Is this possible or should I utilize the Zapier console to handle this? It is a simple integration, but I prefer to have my secrets secured on GitHub since I already have them in my org secrets.

How to split tags from Typeform into Airtable multiple select field

Hi!I’m trying to put Typeform submissions into Airtable, where I want some multiple choice questions (for expample: choose 3 out of 10 options) in the Typeform to convert into tags in their respective Multiple Select column in Airtable. But anytime I submit a Typeform, those fields are filled with a single tag which contains the comma-separated string I get from Typeform. I tried splitting those strings with Formatter, and sending split tags in their respective Airtable fields, but then, it would only send the first one to Airtable and ignore the rest. I also tried every combination of commas and semicolons. Formatter > Utilities > Text to Line Items step also didn’t work.How can I change that?

Issues with simple Email Attachment parsing

Hi all I am having a very troubling time performing a very simple action within Zapier which is to take a email that is sent into an inbox and extract from this the email attachment and use this email attachment to pass into a process plan process as a file.this should be very straight forward however no email attachment is passed through into process plan, In Zapier I can see the email attachment in the list of fields however when I map those fields to a process plan input nothing is actually attached to the process plan when it is runI would appreciate other people's experience with this very simple action of having an email with an attachment and being able to use that attachment in other zapsThank you as this is preventing me from getting any positive outcomes from using zapsTimothy Clarkson

GoHighLevel integration with Enrollware

So I recently found out that Zapier can connect GHL with Enrollware (Class scheduling, registrations etc software) via Webhooks. Now I have Workflow set up in GHL where I upload the list of past students with new tags (triggers for workflow) which adds them in the workflow and pipelines for course renewal reminders. The thing is I have to go and manually check before 2nd sms shoots out to those specific students if they have registered or not and then move the opportunity manually in the pipelines. Now that I can connect both softwares via Webhook. I can get the data for all students registering but what if I only want registration trigger for those specific students and then give them tags via zap and they can be routed to those pipelines. I hope it makes sense to you guys. Any insights or information if such an automation is possible would be helpful.

How to build a Zap to save email attachments & link them in Google Sheets with handle no attachments?

I want to build an app that will trigger when I receive a new email with a certain Subject Line. When triggered I want it to do 2 things:Step 1: Check if it has attachments and if it does then save the attachments to a folder in google drive.If it doesn’t have attachments then it can just go to Step 2. Step 2: Create a row in a google spreadsheet with details such as Date, Sender’s Email, Sender’s Name, Here I want it to save the links to the attachments on the drive in the Attachments column in the sheet. For emails where there are no attachments it would leave the attachments row empty.I am struggling with integrating the attachment piece of this zap. Firstly can’t figure out how to tell zapier the number of attachments that the email has and then how to make it go back and pull all relevant attachment links from the drive and store it back into Google Sheets Any help is much appreciated.
