[Feature Request] Add links to Google Docs

We currently use the “Create Document from Template” Google Doc Action to create a document from a template and replace placeholder variables.  We replace some of the placeholder variables with URLs.  Currently, these URLs show up in the doc as as unlinked plain-text.  We’d like the ability to hyperlink them.

Google Docs add rows to table and populate with line items

Hi,Is there a way to dynamically add rows to a table located within a Google Docs template and populate the rows with line items?  For example I have the following names in comma separated values and would split them by comma, to create an array.  I would then like to inject the two names on separate lines in the Google Docs template. Names: Joe Bloggs, Steve Jobs Google Docs Template should look like below once inserted.

Stripe is there a find or create customer action?

Hi all, Looking for a find or create customer in stripe. I have the email as identifier, I can find the customer using find. I want to then push the customer to a new subscription. Ideally I don’t want to create a new customer each time, but if the customer doesn’t exist, I need to create. In the zap there isn't an option to create if no user found. Is there a possible workaround for this?

Two zaps with the same trigger on one Linkedin LeadGen form

Hi,I am having issues on a Zap with a Linkedin LeadGen Form trigger:I have an older Zap activated and working on a Linkedin form. This one captures form responses and stores them in a google sheet. Now I am creating a new Zap, that has the exact same trigger (Leadgen Form Response) on the exact same Linkedin form. It passes the form response data to another platform using a custom webhook. However, when I activate this new zap, nothing happens when I get a new form response. The old zap still works though.  When I test my new Zap, it does find new form responses to test with. So it looks like the connection is valid. The webhook alsio works fine. But when I activate my Zap and enter new form responses, the trigger does not get triggered.  Are there limitations on the amount of identical triggers on a single Linkedin Form?  Thank you.

How can I manage Task usage per folder/Zap?

Hello, So I tried using the Task Usage Limit Reached however it seems it won’t work for specified folders/zap, appears to be account wide which isn’t my goal here.Looked into the Create Zap Report (Beta), but can’t seem to figure out how to modify the information or when it sends the reports.My goal or what I am trying to achieve is a report per folder or specific zap, with a usage limit and have it send an email out (how Task Usage Limit is able to, but per folder or zap).We also looked at the regular report section but can’t find a way to also automate/export data and defeats the purpose of being notified about reaching a limit within a specific folder/zap automatically. Any help or suggestions?Thanks in advance.

How to limit cost and prevent overuse?

We are considering using Zapier for lean gen submissions from various websites.  However, I wonder if it’s possible to set task limit on Zapier to prevent overuse, bugs and/or spam.  Zapier bills by the number of tasks executions.  How can we limit the number of task per month/week/day so we don’t get a surprise bill at the end of month?

Setting up rule: Teamwork actions not showing

Total noob here on Zapier. I’m working on setting up a Zap and I am setting up a rule….Rule: once a spreadsheet column is updated (rule setup & testing are fine) Action: Teamwork task is completeMy hang-up right now is setting up the action for Teamwork. I get all the way to setting it up but the fields aren’t there like usual, it’s asking me for “task ID” which all the dropdown options are fields in my spreadsheet…. but I would think it would ask what Teamwork fields ie. which project, which task, etc. Any idea how to get this working correctly? Any help here is appreciated!

How to allow Zap to continue if no file is uploaded to Ninja Forms?

I have a zap created that sends data from a Ninja Form to a Google Drive folder and Google Sheet. There is a “non-required’ file upload field on the Ninja Form. If the user uploads a file to the Ninja Form, the file is sent to a Google Drive folder. All data from the Ninja Form is sent to the google sheet with the exception of the file upload field. I have that this mapped to the “Alternate Link” from the Google Drive. If the user uploads a file to the Ninja Form, everything works correctly. However, if they do not upload a file to the Ninja Form, then no data at all is sent to the Google Sheet. I see an error in the zap history…“Required field "file" (file) is missing.” “This Google Sheets step didn‘t run because it depended on a previous step or filter that wasn‘t successful.” How do I get the zap to accept that someone may not upload a file and still send the remaining data onto the Google Sheet?

Can Zapier fully sync a Google Calendar and Google Sheet (or Google Tables)?

I keep trying to find a way to fully sync (two-way, not just one-way) a Google Calendar and Google Sheet (or Google Tables, which I would prefer so that an update to an event or row in one would update the other and vice versa. Is this possible?Everything that I’ve found is a one-way sync, where you can set up something where an update in a Sheet can update or create a Google Calendar event, but not a solution where you could do that AND have the calendar event update or create a row. I found this answer, but that’s just one way.Is there a way to do this without having to create four separate zaps?
