What ID to use when using the action Update Activity in Redtail CRM?

What am I supposed to use within the required ID field when creating a zap so that activities changed in Acuity are fed to RedTail using Zapier’s “Update Activity in RedTail CRM” as the zap action? I’ve testing using every form of “ID” I could frond from the dropdowns but still get an error message. (See screenshot below)

Prevent Zap automatic shutdown due to repeated errors?

Within the flow of my automation, errors will happen, and if they do, a path will be taken, if not, a different path will be taken. However, the zapier understands these errors as a problem in my automation and keeps shutting down. What can I do to prevent the zapier from recognizing these errors as problems?

500 error when uploading file to Freshsales CRM API via webhook

I am trying to send a file to Freshsales CRM using a POST webhook. I have gotten it to work in POstman. However, I had to manually upload the file to postman for it to work. When I try it in Zapier, the Freshsales API gives me error code 500. I think it has to do with how I am passing the file. Anyone have any inisght?

Webhooks, Line items, order information, JSON

Goal: Read in order information from a webhook using JSON. Create a custom event in Klaviyo with that order information.Problem 1: Klaviyo doesn’t natively accept line items.Problem 2: The line items coming in on JSON are not being treated as line items in Zapier...I don’t think. I’ve been following this guide, but there is an amazing amount of gaps, assumptions, simplistic examples, and just overall, not very thorough or helpful. Here is some sample data from the guide above. Notice how it is structured. Here is some sample data from my actual webhook: Although the text is different, the format is the same. The problem I’m running into is that each order can have any number of “orderRows.” Maybe 1, maybe 10. When trying to access this data later on in the next step, I would expect to find an array of values stored in “productName.”  However, that is not the case. Instead, each “productName” is being stored as a separate entry. Here’s what I mean: What I would have expected is somethin

Condensing triggers or Zap results to running once a week?

I have several transactional-style zaps. Trigger on some event, send an email with more info to the appropriate person, etc. What I’m looking for is where can I learn more about ways to condense these? For some of my end users, they might only trigger these transactional zaps every so often. Maybe even rarely. For others, they might trigger it 5 times a week.How can I sort of condense them, or limit them. I’m basically looking for a way to tell a zap “if you’ve sent to this user recently, hold off on this one” or what would be even better would be how could i get the zap to sort of add the results together, and then release whatever is added together, per use, at the end of a week, or every third day, or something? So User A might get one email, as above, but user B would get one email with 5 things in it.

Gmail attachments not added to Google Drive

I’ve created a Zap to send .pdf attachments to a specific Google Drive folder and the test works fine, but when I send an email to Gmail with a .pdf attachment, it’s not showing up in the G-Drive folder I specified. I also want the file name to be the subject of the email. Again, it works fine on the test, but not on actual emails.

Teachable enrolments can’t select specific course?

Hello. I’ve been using Zapier no problem for a few months with Teachable enrolments being sent to my Convertkit mailing list automations. I have the teachable zap set for course enrolment and then it sends them to the correct Convertkit automation again. Now, I just made a new teachable course (Free trial actually) and I want that enrolment to be sent to a different email segment/automation that sends them an email asking if they liked the trial and a coupon code. BUT, when I’m setting up my zap, it has the choice of course enrollment but doesn’t ask you what course. So, I’m assuming it is just looking for ANY course enrolment which is a problem as the free trial students would get the email automation for people who signed up to the full paid course. This seems like something that exists, but I’m just not finding it. Thank you for the help. -Andrew

Are Evernote Tasks supported?

There are several great Zaps for Evernote reminders. However, they now have a true task object that can be created as a task management system. So far as I can tell, the actual tasks are not available to sync but the reminders are still there. Reminders can be set for notes and such but they are different than the new task feature. I have yet to see any Zaps available for integration, and I am especially looking for any.do.  Am I the only one that noticed this or am I mistaken? Thanks.

How to mention another page in a Facebook post?

I’m trying to set up a zap from Google Sheets to my Facebook Page. I want to mention/tag another page in the post. (i.e. It was great working with @Example today!) I tried to just write @Example when putting it in to Zapier and when it was posted to Facebook, it was just the text “@Example” and not tagged properly like it would be if I did that on Facebook. (See attached examples.) How do I need to format the @ mention in Zapier in order for it to be a clickable tag when it popular? Please see the attach examples of what is happening now and what I’d like to happen.

Post Typeform results into Slack daily?

Hi,I have a simple Zap that creates a new database item in Notion when a Typeform form is completed. I’d like to set up a Slack bot that posts how many new submissions there are on a daily basis (e.g. at 9 am everyday). I was initially trying to see if there’s a way to do this by looking at how often the Zap had run in a 24 hour period but can’t seem to access any Zap history in the Zap builder itself. Open to any suggestions on how I can do this!

Lead Updated trigger “A Lead could not be found. The app did not respond in time” error

I need to create several zaps where if a lead has been updated in CRM (like several fields) then we do other tasks like send off emails, etc. But I unfortunately cannot even get the initial trigger in my zap to test properly. When I select “Lead Updated” as the initial trigger, and go to test, I get the following error shown in the screenshot below. My timeout from CRM side is set to two minutes. But when trying to test this zap, it stops and states the error below in about 30 seconds.  I cant really complete any more of the zap because no fields show for me to map other elements depending on the nature of the update.I also have new leads coming in every minute.

Creating WooCommerce order via ClickFunnels purchase gives “400 Bad Request” error

Hello everyone!I’m trying to connect Clickfunnels to Woocommerce so as when someone completes a purchase from clickfunnels, zapier will create an order on WooCommerce and WooCommerce will then send out an email to the customer. A bit of context: The WC product is an ebook (so a downloadable product) that is password protected with a unique password for each user. An (additional) email is sent to the customer which contains the encrypted PDF ebook download link and you can also set a download limit (e.g. 10 times). This encryption and additional email is handled via a WP plugin called Ebook Store. The zap process is: New Successful Purchase in ClickFunnels (trigger) → Create Order in WooCommerce (action) The problem: I’ve mapped out some fields in my zap for the WC order, but upon testing I get the “Communication error. 400 Bad Request.” error. Not sure which fields Are supposed to be mandatory or if they are in wrong format. Here is a full page screen from the zap, hope it helps:  And

How to map data correctly to remove field labels?

Hello. I’m new to using Zapier and I have a question about the field mapping data that’s coming through on my Zap. I’ve created a webhook from a User Registration plugin on our website that creates a new webinar registrant in GoToWebinar once triggered. Everything is working fine but for some reason some of the mapped field labels are showing in front of the data that comes through. Like for City it will read City: CityChicago and on Zipcode it reads Zip68105. It’s also doing this on the phone number data like Phone: Phone+xxx-xxx-xxxx. This may be something dumb that I’m not doing but I wanted to check to see if there was a way to fix this so that the label field is removed and only the value/data comes through. I’ve attached a screenshot of what goes through to GoToWebinar. Everything looks fine in the Zap setup and doesn’t show the duplicate field labels.I would really appreciate any help anyone can give me with this. I tried using the Pick Off Child Key but after re-testing and ref

Find List on Board in Trello step “invalid value for value” error

Hi, I am trying to create a zap where depending on a criteria (based on a google form submission), a new trello cards gets added to a different list (same board). However, the ‘create card in trello’ zap does not seem to take any custom value when selecting the list. When I just select the correct list from the dropdown menu, everything works fine. However, when I pull in the list ID (long numeric value) from a lookup in a previous step OR after going through a ‘Find list on Board in trello’ search step, the zap doesn’t continue.  The error message is: The app returned “invalid value for value”. I’ve tried the same with using the list names (rather than the IDs) with the same result. Any help is much appreciated! ThanksLiesbet
