How do I combine two Zaps to add data from two forms to one Google Doc?

Hi, I have 2 different zaps. The first one is when there is a new google form(x) it creates a new google doc(y) and fills the information from google form(x) into doc(y) that it created. The setup for the second one is similar where the action is a new google form(z) is created but I would like to use that information to add to doc(y). I wanted to somehow link the two zaps together because there will always be a new document created when there is a new google form(x) and I want to always fill the information from google form (z) into the doc that is created.

WooCommerce error: "woocommerce_rest_invalid_id" on https://meinedomain.xyz

Hi,I just created my firs ZAP, but somehow I got stuck on Existing ID field.I have Bexio where I have my customers and I have Woocommerce where I want to always update my customers as soon as I change/update (address, phone, ...) them in Bexio. So only one way from Bexio → Woocommerce.I connected to Bexio and it worksI connected to Woocommerce and it worksI updated a customer that is in both Bexio and Woocommerce, but this does not work and Zapier gives me this message: WooCommerce returned "Ungültige Ressourcen-ID.". Error code: "woocommerce_rest_invalid_id" on https://meinedomain.xyzWhat do I add to the first field: *Existing ID Required - I only see Bexio options here, but I guess the Woocommerce ID of the customer should be standing here, or?Anyone has an idea how to fix this problem?Thank youMarko

Dropbox Zap incorrectly renaming folders.

Hello! I have a zap that moves and renames a folder in Dropbox. The structure of the folder names is [project name] [project number], so an example would be Zapier 523.553.229 . The zap needs to rename the folder to replace the project number to a different number. No matter what I try, the “Rename File” Dropbox action does rename the folder, but it thinks that the last 4 characters of the folder name are an extension. This means that when I try to rename Zapier 523.553.229 to use its new new 111.222.333 job number for example, the Zap renames the folder to Zapier 111.222.333.229 - meaning that it kept the .229 from the original file name, thinking that its an extension. How do I get it to not think that the last 4 characters (i.e. the “.229” in the example above), and rename the folder correctly (i.e. Zapier 111.222.333)? Thank you all!

Zapier crashes in all browsers when editing Zaps.

This post was split from topic:  I am having the same issue as of yesterday and have tried the following:ChromeEdgeFirefoxand all the private window versions.I have also cleared the cache, logged in/out.I get to different stages of editing apps but all crash within a minute. By crash I mean the window becomes unresponsive and I am presented with various “wait or close” dialogues. I have waited but with no resolution. E.g. I can click to find new samples for a trigger but then it will either get stuck searching or find a new record but not update the screen, it will then crash.I have some very urgent work that needs to be done on my zaps, I would be very grateful for any advice!

Automate Spotify Monthly Playlists

I want to create a Zap that adds my liked songs into a playlist for that month. It would be triggered whenever I like a new song and then adds that song to a playlist named for the month (i.e. Jan 2022).My current Zap is triggered by liking a song and then adds it to a specific playlist I choose. This means every month I have to manually change the playlist the songs are added to.I would like to be able to search if a playlist for the month already exists and if so add it to that. If a playlist for the month doesn’t exist to then create a new one.Zapier only appears to have the ability to create a playlist or add to a specific one. I don’t have the ability to search if a playlist for a certain name exists. Zapier also is only able to add to playlists based on playlist ID (a random string unique to each playlist) which makes it impossible to use a variable for the playlist name.Is there a possible workaround to my issue or a way to implement more Spotify support?

GPT-4 Turbo Availability In Zapier

As to the best of my knowledge, GPT-4 Turbo is not explicitly mentioned as being available in Zapier. How can I upgrade my existing Zaps using GPT-3.5-16K to GPT-4 Turbo-128K? Does anyone have insights as to when this model will be made available?My API key has access to this, and I am successfully using GPT-4 Turbo, with its much larger context window of 128K tokens, in several other applications that utilize the OpenAI API.Thank you

Is it possible to assign a new ClickUp task to a team instead of an individual?

When adding the action “Create a ClickUp task” and setting all its fields, I can’t assign it to a team/group from my workspace, even by adding its id. I can only assign the task to a specific user. Is there any work around within Zapier without using ClickUp automations after the Zap is triggered? Is it planned to get this option soon?Thank you,

Hello,i hope someone can help meI'm trying to connect Monday with Gmail. Specifically, an email should be sent as soon as a column changes its value, which is the trigger. The test for this works.Subsequently, Gmail is targeted and pulls the email from Monday to then send a message to this email. In the test, this works well, but in practice not at all. In other words, I change the value of a column, but no email is sent.

Zapier doesn't recognize any Notion database

Hi, it feels dumb to create a new post regarding this issue but I really looked at every resource I could find before posting, including the Help Center notion page and some posts in the community.I’m new to both Notion and Zapier so I’m not sure on what part my problem is.I’ve created a new Notion workspace using Notion’s Student Dashboard template. Inside this template there is a Courses database, and in each Course there’s a Notes database.I wanted to add a OneNote integration to create a new OneNote note when I create a new Note in the Notion database.I’ve connected Zapier to my Notion, selected all the pages I have, and no database is showing up in the database selection. I should note that I’ve tried un-nesting the Courses and Notes databases. I’ve also tried creating a new empty page with only a single database. It didn’t recognize it as well.Each time I’ve reconnected and re-selected all the pages to be sure the problem is not there.I did see this screenshot in one of the posts

How to seamlessly integrate Lofty with Follow Up Boss via Zapier for consistent activity logs?

Zapier helpI have integrated lofty with follow up boss. I have a website that I set my clients up on a search with. The activity log that shows up in my follow up boss does not show all of the same activity I receive in my lofty account. I can see when my client views or favorites a listing and all of the information about what they were doing on my website but not on fub only on lofty, I lose a ton of the information with the integration and it seems as if Zapier picks and chooses what and when things are sent.  I don’t see the activity when my clients are viewing the website all the time and it’s very inconsistent with the information it sends to fub. What seems like it should be an easy integration has been a nightmare getting my systems all working functionally for my business! . This seems to be a very basic functioning of use for Zapier and any guidance as to how to get these systems to communicate properly would be gladly appreciated. New to Zapier and integrations.

How do I update 2,000–10,000 rows in Google Sheets from WP All Export PRO while keeping the same link?

Hello,Our issue is updating an existing Google spreadsheet whenever a WP all-export PRO file is created (see link: https://prnt.sc/AW8r0g24kFid). We've set up a ZAP for this. It works by replacing the old file in our Google Drive with the newly exported WP all-export PRO file (in Excel or CSV format), making it accessible to all users.However, we need the data from the CSV/Excel file to be directly uploaded or replaced in an existing Google spreadsheet. I tried using the Formatter action, but we're dealing with tables of 2000 to 10,000 rows, which is problematic. Is there another way to automatically transfer the data from the WP all-export PRO file to the Google spreadsheet and update the existing spreadsheet with the same name as the export? The goal is that the Google spreadsheet always stays the same, with the same link, but the data should be updated on each WP all-export PRO file with the same name. Thanks!

ConvertKit Action error e-mail and first name webhook zap

Hello, I facing a problem. I am selling digital products via Copecart. I saw that I can create an zap for that. So I did a webhook “catch a hook in webhooks by zapier” - no as an action I added ConvertKit I have different possibilities - so I can give a tag or add subscribers to a sequence in convertkit.I can add the tag or choose an sequence - thats fine. But the problem is the next field. this one says *Email (required). But which e-mail do I add there?I normally want that when a person bought the e-book, they will be in another sequence - so also when they where in the newsletter before. But I dont know what to write down in the e-mail field. Because everybody has another email. I tried to write a word like “FALSE” to check what happens but an error will appear.  Someone knows how to fix this? Also what do I have to write down by first name?  Thanks a lot
