Hello,
I would like to add Wordpress comments “author_email” to our mailing list (obviously after they okayed to be added).
Among the fields that Zapier retrieve from WP Comments, there is no author_email.
How can I do?

Many thanks.

If the field is not there, you’re not going to be able to capture it with Zapier’s standard integration.

You could look at building a custom WP plugin that sends that data to a webhook. You could trigger a zap from that.

That was what I was thinking too.  Maybe someone here knows how to add the field “author_email” to the Zapier XML-RPC Wordpress request?

 

Is there some documentation here on how to send data to a webhook?
