Hi guys,

 

First of all, thanks for your help. I am trying to create a zap that automates a Gravity Forms Sign-up, creates or appends an existing contact in CapsuleCRM and subsequently adds a task to that contact to send them an email in 2 weeks. Almost everything is set up, although I am having trouble in the last part. I want to add a task in CapsuleCRM using Zapier and attach this task to the contact that was just created. There is an option in the Zap (see screenshot below)

, although it does not attach it to the contact I specified. I used the Contact ID right here, but also tested firstname lastname or email address. None of it is working. Any ideas?

 

Thanks!

Hi @RJacobs 

Are you getting an error when testing that step with how it’s mapped?

Have you tested if it’s a different field that might be causing the issue?

May be helpful to post screenshots with how your Zap steps are configured vs just the 2 fields.

 

You may want to open a ticket with Zapier Support: https://zapier.com/app/get-help


Hi @Troy Tessalone , no, no errors.

 

I’ll add the screenshots:

@RJacobs 

Issue might be with how this field is configured,

Try using a real date and see if that works.

If it does, then you may need to use a Formatter > Date/Time > Add/Subtract Time step and possible format the Date correctly.

 


Brilliant @Troy Tessalone ! Oddly it did came through with the two weeks later, but noone assigned to it. I used the formatter now and it’s working fine! Thanks so much :)

 


@RJacobs 

Better to use specific naming conventions if trying to use shorthand.

e.g. +14d for +14 days instead of two weeks later

@Troy Tessalone thanks Troy!

 

There’s still a minor problem in my zap actually. There are no errors whilst testing all steps, but when I turn it on it automatically disables itself again.

 

Do you know what might cause this? Thanks a lot!!
 


Hi @RJacobs 

Best would be to open a ticket w/ Zapier Support for them to further diagnose:
