When you need help with a question about Zapier, it can be difficult to know where to start. This article explains the best way to find answers in the Zapier Community.
Search for existing questions
A good place to start is by searching to see if the answer to your question already exists! There are lots of questions and answers in the Community, so you may find the information you need by searching existing posts. There is a search box Community home page, on the right hand side of posts, or you can go straight to the search page.
When you type your question, include the names of the app(s) that you’re using, and any error messages that you can see.
In the search results, you’ll see that some posts have a question mark next to them and some have a tick. If a post has a question mark by it, that means it is a question. If it has a tick by it, that means that it’s a question that has a best answer.
Questions with best answers are a great place to start looking if you have a similar problem to the question asked!
