Error: The app returned "Failed to create channel ".

Hey team. I want to implement Zapier for my new company and I'm having troubles with using Zapier at all. I went under my personal account just to test some zaps and see if they could show Zapier’s value to my CEO.  I couldn't even make the first Zap as it keeps switching off. I'll put here what happened so far. Hope you can help me out.  Step 1 - New spreadsheet row in Google SheetsStep 2 - Create spreadsheet row in Google SheetsThe point of it is so that when a row is added to one Sheet, it adds the same information to another spreadsheet and avoids double the work. But I get the error:Step 1 - New Spreadsheet Row in Google SheetsThe app returned "Failed to create channel".I rebuilt the zap from scratch, I tried to create it as a whole new zap and it just keeps turning it off. Can someone help me?

Google Alerts in Slack - Redirect Notice when clicking article link

We have Google Alerts sent by Zapier to our organization’s Slack channels. When a Google alert comes through and a user clicks the link on their desktop it works fine. If a user is on the Slack mobile app and clicks the same link, it gives a Redirect Notice saying “The previous page is sending you to an invalid url.” I have not been able to find a fix for this.

Create event from a recurring event in Calendar

Hello! First time using Zapier and I don’t seem to find how to do what I need. I have a recurrent event on Calendar, from monday to friday every 3 weeks. I want a zap that creates another event on an especific hour on the same days than the first one. I’ve tried “new event matching search” to “create a detailed event on calendar” but I only get to create a new event for the first day on the original event and no repetitions. Any help?  Thanks!!!

Action on Pipedrive to multiple Deals given a uncorrelated Trigger

Folks,I've been thinking for weeks in a way to Trigger a Zap every month (using Time/Date Trigger) and do an action in Pipedrive for all Deals that meet certain criteria (e.g are in certain stage of the funnel).One of the ways I tried to workaround was (i) triggering > (ii) trying action FIND A DEAL with the specific stage > (iii) Add an activity to theses deals. However, FIND A DEAL seems to work as a VLOOKUP in Excel, in which only one output can be the answer, when more than one output  is found, it gives an error message.Anyone has any ideas on how can I workaround this? It is a routine that I must run every month with the deals that match that criteria. A DEAL filter does not sound a good answer because the same deal would only receive the activity once.

Create pdf from Airtable record and attach to Airtable record - app recommendation

My workflow basically looks like this:  We accept some information from a docusign form. This docusign form submission updates an existing record in Airtable with the data submitted by the user.  Some calculations are done on the Airtable side based on the input data.  We want to populate a PDF template with these calculations then save that PDF and attach it to the same Airtable record. Anyone know a good way to do this in Zapier + some other tool? Ideally that doesn’t require a new paid subscription but open to it if it’s necessary.

Error Message for Airtable

This post has been edited by a moderator to remove personal information. Please remember that this is a public forum and to remove any sensitive information prior to posting.I have a zap as below where I have data from a Google Sheet either updating or creating new records in Airtable. As per the zap I have the set up of the Airtable to look at specific fields to look up but every time the zap runs I get an error:You must provide either "Search by field" AND "Search value" or "Search Formula".This is despite this being set up. I am brining data into Google sheets via the ‘importdata’ formula from a csv in a third party.  The Zap does seem to be working as new data is being added to Airtable but I am wondering why I am getting this error and if there is anything I can do about it?

POST Webhook action - how to send location field to Wix in the correct format

By some amazing miracle (I’m still not quite sure how I’ve done it!), I have managed to get a Zapier to send a new record from a Google Sheet to a Wix database using a Webhook Post.The only problem is that the location field which contains city and country name is not being recognised as a location and so I have to manually go in and convert the field value to be a location, which kind of defeats the object of the automation. Is there anything I could do in Zapier to send the location through in the right format for it to be recognised. Another slight wrinkle is the location is a city location rather than a full address, so it’s Bilbao, Spain. Once I convert it manually in Wix, it is recognised perfectly. From what I can see, it is because the field needs to be provided as a JSON but I’ve hit the limit of my knowledge there. Any help would be gratefully received.

My Zap isn't retrieving JotForm data due to accidental HIPAA compliance selection

Hello!  I have a zap setup to pull data from a new jotform submission, however I am not getting any data returned in the fields from the test. I spoke with support about what the problem may be, and I think I accidently selected HIPPA compliant on my jotform account when zapier was requesting access. is there a way to change the access to that and reset the HIPPA compliance filter? My jotform is not HIPPA nor does it need to be.  Thanks!

Can You Get Custom Field Data in Jobber through Zapier

Hi, I am trying to get the Job number from a completed Job in Jobber so I can either create a Trello card or create a new row in a spreadsheet with the Job# as the title or first item in the row. For some reason the Job Number data is not available as a recognized data point in Zapier. This is odd because zapier can get a work order number from a completed Job, but the work order number is not available or viewable in Jobber (or at least I haven't found it after looking in edit view on a job or by searching).I also noticed that I couldn’t get data from a custom field, which could work, but zapier can’t get data from a custom field in Jobber. If there were some way to do so then it could be better for me than getting the Job#. Is there a way to force or manually get custom field data from Jobber for Zapier to recognize?

How to increase by 1 every time a Zap is triggered?

I have to create a complex lead distribution flow and I’m stuck in two steps of the Zap. The flow is: Zap triggers when a Facebook Lead Ad is created.  JS Script matches the lead with a cluster of partners separated by geolocation. Zap must search and return the partner in the cluster that has received the lowest volume of leads.  Zap must increase by 1 the leads received by this partner. Zap must create a new lead assigned to this partner in salesforce. I am having a hard time to build steps 3 and 4 in Zapier. Does anyone have any idea how to do this?

Microsoft Teams channel post

Hi all, I’m new to Zapier. I’ve set up a Salesforce to MS Teams zap, which is working, but I have a couple of things I’d like to tidy up. The first one is, I at mention a user which works when I do the test zap, but doesn’t work when the zap runs itself. Has anyone come across this? The second is, is there a way to post into the channel as myself, rather than as Zapier?Thanks!
