Zap runs successfully but there is no data in Google Sheets

I have a zap which connects jotform with google sheets.While testing manually when jotform data is passed onto google sheets after some formatting using python code, it successfully enters that data into google sheet and I can open the sheet and see the data present there. But when this zap run in production i.e when someone enters the entry into jotform and submits that zap triggers and runs successfully with no erros at all. but the catch is it just enters the timestamp into google sheet. apart from that no data is entered there in the sheets, everything is blank. Has anyone faced this issue?

How do I restrict my ChatGPT-based ChatBot to only answer questions based on uploaded data?

Creating a Zap based on G-mail Subject AND First word of text

Thank you firstly to this community.As part of an e-mail campaign I’m trying to ensure that people are on the Monthly Mailing List. So I’m sending an e-mail saying “hey, are you also on our monthly news mailing list”. Please reply YES to this e-mail and we’ll make sure you stay connected.So I was doing a Zap based on the G-Mail subject but then I also want to check that they wrote yes then it would apply a tag in my Drip E-mail.Because I have the word yes in the main e-mail which they are replying to I can’t just say “content includes YES”. I need it to be the first word of this e-mail is YES.I’m pretty confident that Gmail filter doesn’t allow it but want about E-Mail parser or something?Also open to other strategies!

FreshLearn error: The app returned error 400

I am getting a 400 error. How can I skip to anorther record to try again?I suspect the issue might be that I am trying to create an account, but an account is already created for that member. Does that usually result in a 400 error?

Zap from Square to Aweber not working in real scenarios despite successful test

The test of my zap works fine. In the real world it’s not working.  Square Up to Aweber. It’s on.  New payment in square is supposed to trigger being added to a specific list in Aweber. Changed this then to New customer in square trigger being added to a specific list in Aweber. Again, test works. Real life does not.  Any suggestions? Thanks.

How can I add the "Work Order is Updated" trigger event for Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM in Zapier?

The out-of-box Dynamics 365 App does not have the Trigger Event I need which is "Work Order is Updated". Work Order is an out-of-box entity in Dynamics 365 (not custom). According to the Help doc, I can request it - but where? Does the PREMIUM version of Zapier provide this trigger event? Can a non-Zapier developer add an event? I was not able to find documentation on this If neither are viable - I read that we could use a Webhook. Do you have any thoughts on this? Is there another app available for Dynamics 365?  I was unable to find any others to try.End Goal:When a Work Order is Updated to Complete in D365Broadly will Create a New Contact (with the Contact's information)The D365 App, Broadly App, and Broadly event are all OOB. It is just the 1 D365 event that is not there.

Issues connecting Jira Data Center to Zapier using MFA (SSO) authentication.

We are running Jira Data Center There doesn’t seem to be a specific Jira Data Center integration.  The closest one seems to be Jira Software Server. With our Jira instance, the username / password authentication is prohibited and only MFA (SSO) is allowed. I’ve tested connecting with username (and email) with a personal access token and I get the following error: Wondering if this type of integration is possible and if anyone has come across this issue before and how I might be able to get around it.If you need any other details, please let me know.

Webhook to Monday.com Location Field or column

I was having an issue sending an address to the Location column in Monday.com. Looking at a bunch of old posts on this, it seems I wasn’t the only one with this issues. I also noticed the problem has been admired but never resolved. Problem: When entering an address via Zap, it will not accept the value without Lat & long and the item will not show the address that was entered.Resolution: Spoof a lat & long, just grab any one you want and hard code it into the Zap like below.Known Issues with this resolution: When these fields are mapped on the monday.com UI map, they will appear in the spoofed lat/long location, which may be an issue if that’s something you need.

Restricting access to an Interfaces course

I’m experimenting with an online course built in Interfaces. I’m realizing (a bit late) that Interfaces may be an abandoned project, as direct help queries aren’t being addresses within 1 week, and “office hours” have been suspended since September.My question isn’t too exotic. I’d like to restrict access to the course to users with permission, based on email. Interfaces allows you to manually enter/delete one record at a time for this purpose.Is it possible to upload eligible users into the table, or synch with a table in Google Sheets? Or am I stuck manually adding/deleting one record at a time? As best as I can tell (given that no documentation exists), they way course access would work is: (1) a prospective user enters their email on a login page; (2) for a permitted user (exists in Interface instance’s users list), a 6-digit code is sent by email for use in logging in. If the user’s email isn’t in the users’ list, no email is sent (and no notification of any kind is displayed).\ T

Parsing Order Information in Printavo for Individual Tasks in Monday.com: 'TypeError' in .split() Function.

I have been trying to set up an automated process using Zapier that takes specific order information from Printavo, identifies particular order types through a pattern in the naming convention (like "SP-" followed by a number), and then creates individual tasks or items for each distinct order in Monday.com. Initially, the setup was not capturing individual order identifiers like 'SP-1' from Printavo to create separate tasks in Monday.com. Instead, it was grouping them into a single string, which wasn't the intended outcome. Also, within the Zapier code step, I've faced a 'TypeError' related to the .split() function, indicating trouble parsing the order information. Any ideas on how to resolve these errors and ensure the setup can handle a range of order formats? Zap Overview: Example of the input data: The error message:  How code step #5 is set up Looping Step Details: Monday.com Step Details:Example of how the end result looks in Monday.com

Why is all mail being added to the database. I only want it to work when a new thread is created. (Gmail to Notion)

When a new thread is created in a Google Groups email, I want to add the post to the Notion database.I can't connect Google Groups directly to Zapier, so I created a new Gmail account and invited people to join the group.I am receiving two Google Groups emails in one Gmail account.I set up automatic labeling of these two Google Groups emails.In Zapier, I made sure that when a new thread is created in Gmail, a document is added to the database in the notion, and the mailboxes are labeled. The reason for this is that we want to put emails with different labels in different databases.You may ask if you can create two Google accounts, but I have a corporate account, so each time I create one, it adds money.However, whenever a new email is created, rather than a new thread, it is added to the notion database.For example, when someone in a group replies, it is also added to the database.It shouldn't be added to the database because it's not a new thread.How can I solve this, please help.Tran

Can't pull permanent link from Slack to Monday

I created a Zap that whenever a team member sends a message in a channel in Slack, it will create an item in Monday with the contents of that message, and the permanent link that will lead to that message in Slack. When testing the trigger, there was no problem but then it cannot pull the link into Monday, only the contents of the message.

Copying from Google Sheets to Notion Data base but only on Schedule ?

I am looking at doing something a little different, I currently have a sheet get populated every 15 minutes with data to create a feed into slack, this works great as it gets triggered by the new lines (after a script deletes the previous input) and it broadcasts the data every 15 minutes. Within that data is information I want to broadcast only once a day, I am approaching this with a different zap but once I set up a schedule I am stumped how to pick the data (from a whole specific sheet) without using a ‘new row/entry’ trigger. Any ideas? Thanks hive mind!

Can more than one account use the same access token for Privyr?

I’m trying to set up a zap to send new leads from Meta to Privyr. This is the CRM used by our client (I work for an agency). They have anothe client doing some other work for them who is also gathering leads and apparently is also using Zapier to send them into the CRM. When I tried to set up the zap, the access token wouldn’t work. Could this be because it is already in use by the other agency? Or can multiple accounts use the same access token? And if not, are there any workarounds we can use?

I have tried this fix without success. As you can see by the screenshot here the Zap is triggering multiple times at the exact same time and draining my Zap allowance in the process. Zapier support have been unable to fix the issue and have kindly declined my request to reimburse the wasted Zaps. Thank you
