Zapier is altering numbers pulled from the Printavo items column.

So as per the title, it seems as if Zapier is altering some numbers that I’m trying to pull from Printavo.This is how the numbers are arranged in Printavo (mind you we’re only worrying about the numbers in the Items column) and this is how the numbers are being outputted in Zapier. Is there any reason that this is happening? On other examples I’ve tried the Lineitems Attributes Total Quantities field has always been the one I’ve used to get the numbers I need and they have all been correct up until this point. Thank you in advance for the help.

How do I format a Zap to pull email lead data and push it to Surefire correctly?

I am trying to establish a Zap that pulls lead data received via email and pushes it to Surefire, creates a new contact within surefire, and then automatically establishes them on a drip campaign.  As of now I have it built to trigger when email is received in outlook, with a filter so it only continues if it is from the specific lead generation email address. I am having a hard time formatting it to push the data correctly to surefire (i.e. first name, last name, email address, phone number, lead source, etc.). Any specific tips on how to accomplish this?  Alternatively, the lead generation company has told us we can create a webhook and build the zap that way, but I am unsure if this would be a better option compared to the option mentioned above. I am not sure if we still receive the lead info via email if it is done this way, so that is my only hold up there. having the email with the lead info is still important to me and my team, which is why I looked into the first Zap route men

Unable to connect QuickBooks Online to a Zap. Will the premium plan solve this?

When I try to connect my Quickbooks account to a Zap, it gives me a message saying, “Sorry, but the app didn’t connect”. We are going to purchase Zapier Premium, but we wanted to make sure it had all the capabilities necessary before purchasing. Will premium solve this issue? Is this a Zapier or Quickbooks issue? How can I solve this?

TwitchTracker API request

TwitchTracker.com maintains up to date statistics for Twitch streamers, including useful data like follower count and average viewers. The site has an API that allows access to that data via a URL ending in the desired Twitch channel name: https://twitchtracker.com/api/channels/summary/[channelname]When I check one of these URLs with an API checker like the one at https://reqbin.com/, it successfully returns the data I’m looking for. However when I try to do a GET request from Zapier on one of the above API URLs with an appropriate channel name filled in, it always returns “ "Forbidden" (HTTP Status Code: 403)“I’m admittedly very rusty on my webhooks, and TwitchTracker has no documentation about their API, so the most likely explanation is that I’m missing something extremely fundamental.

Sub-Zap returns no data - I want my zap to continue to run weather or not the sub-zap is successful.

I have a sub-zap to look up employee census data.   Occasionally my main zap will pass an ex-employee’s email into the sub-zap and becasue the sub-zap can’t find that person it gets stuck. I want the main zap to continue weather or not it gets a hit in the sub-zap.  There doesn’t seem to be an option anywhere where I can set it to continue if no data is found.

Adding a delay before I send a review email automatically

Hello everyone, I manage a catering company in France.Our clients order food from us which is delivered to their door on the day of their event (which can be in 3 days, 2 weeks, 2 months, 1 year...after the date of purchase)This date is stored as an Hubspot property (that we called “date_EVT”). I’m trying using ZAPIER to connect our Hubspot account to “Verified Reviews” (similar to Trustpilot). Thus, I could send an email post purchase in which our clients  could rate their experience.But I need to set things up so that the email from Verified Reviews is sent 48 hours after the “date_EVT”.  (said differently, 48 hours after they eat the food we cooked)But I can’t figure out how to do this in Zapier.Anyone to help ?Thank you so much for your help !Best,Louis

Facebook Groups error: Please reduce the amount of data you're asking for, then retry your request

I've come across multiple discussions pointing fingers at Facebook for the issues, but this morning was particularly frustrating. I spent a considerable amount of time establishing connections, only to encounter an error.Why is this particular Zap still offered if it consistently results in errors?My goal is straightforward: I want to import posts from my buy/sell group, along with a few specific fields, into a Google Sheet. From there, I plan to share these posts on my Facebook page, create corresponding posts on WordPress, and finally, post them on Twitter.Initially, I thought Zapier would be the perfect solution for this kind of automation, but it's been a few years and it's still not functioning as expected.

Unable to Zip Multiple Attachments in Airtable with Zapier

Hi there, I have multiple attachments (pictures) in attachment fields in airtable.I want to be able to download them (one row at the time) in bulk.To make this happen. I'm trying to create a zip url with Zapier - through "Zip Archive".Unfortunately, zip archives is not able to create a zip out of my attachments. It creates a zip file with either .text or .exe Is it because I did not specify the file type correctly ? Or is it because “Zip Archive” is not happy with multiple images in one attachment field ? What am I not doing correctly ?Many thanks !

How do I create an order in Shopify with the information received by email?

Hello,We are selling food supplements on our shopify but also on different marketplaces.For these specific marketplaces, we receive the orders by email.Therefore it is very time consuming to refill manually all the information in shopify to be able to have it fulfilled by our logistics. My goal is therefore to create a ZAP, that can :read the email orders once they are received on my specific zap email address identify the correct information within the email and create automatically in shopify the new order For now I do not understand what do I need to enter in the category “Action” for helping ZAP to identify by itself the data to copy from the email, in order to create the order accordingly.

Issue with Special Norwegian Characters in Integration Workflow

Hello, I am encountering an issue with the special Norwegian characters Æ, Ø, and Å in our workflow. When we send data containing these characters to Zapier, the characters are correctly received and processed. However, a problem arises when this data is pushed from Zapier to other platforms like Slack and email. Instead of the correct Norwegian characters, we get incorrect characters such as "Ã¥".Any tips or trick to fix this?

Is it possible to convert a filter to a path?

Currently I have made a long Zap with many steps.Due to the large number of steps I want to add a layer of filtering early on to prevent the Zap from continuing and executing all the subsequent steps if there is an error.After having completed the Zap, I was asked to add in an event for if the Zap does not go ahead. Unfortunately Zapier does not allow me to create a new path unless it is the last step, meaning I would need to create an entirely new Zap and copy every step over.Wouldn’t it be much easier if I could just convert an existing filter to a path? It will do essentially the same thing except instead of saying STOP ZAP, it says DO THIS INSTEAD.

How do I merge multiple Zaps into a single "Order Equipment" Zap for improved efficiency?

I got a huge list of Zaps that could all be merged into a single Zap, here’s one of the use cases: Ordering equipment, current status:Instead of having a centralized Zap to order headphones, mouses and keyboards, currently, employees are using three different Zaps to do so.I got a separate Zap for ordering new Macs for the engineers, and a separate Zap to order new Macs for the Customer Happiness team.Desired state:There’s one Zap - “Order Equipment”, and the employee ticks what they need. I process this information to confirm that the equipment either needs to be ordered or is already available for taking. I then inform the employee that they can either pick up the equipment in the Ops office, or that they’d have to wait for X days until the equipment is delivered.
