Question

Hotmart Zap triggering on declined purchases and missing data

Hi Zapier Support Team,

I have a Zap set up that connects Hotmart with ClickUp. Whenever a transaction event occurs in Hotmart, the Zap sends a message to a ClickUp channel.

Today we had an issue with a lead (Email: lXXXXXXXXX@gmail.com). The Zap triggered and sent the message to ClickUp, but the phone number variable was empty. When I checked my Hotmart dashboard, the sale wasn't showing up at all.

I contacted Hotmart support, and they confirmed that this user's purchase was declined due to bank restrictions. They explained that Zapier receives the transaction event notification the moment the order is generated, even before the payment is actually approved or declined by their system.

To prevent false alarms and keep our database clean, I have two questions:

  1. How can I configure the Trigger (or what Filter should I add) so that the Zap ONLY continues to ClickUp when the Hotmart transaction status is strictly "Approved" (and ignores declined, canceled, or pending attempts)?

  2. Given that this was a failed purchase, is it normal for Hotmart to omit the phone number in the payload under these circumstances, or could there be an issue with how my variables are mapped?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi ​@BlueHackers, welcome to the Community! 😁

For the filter, you’d want to set it to check the Hotmart trigger’s Status field, and use the (Text) Exactly matches rule condition to look for the value approved. That should get it to ignore any transactions that come through with a different status.

On the phone number question, I looked at Hotmart's API docs but couldn't find anything confirming they always omit it for declined purchases. Is the phone number a required field at your checkout? If not, it's possible the buyer just didn't enter it when placing the order. Either way, it's worth checking your Zap history to see if this was a one-off or if it’s happening consistently.

Let us know how you get on!

Hi ​@BlueHackers 

There should be a data point in the Hotmart webhook data payload that indicates the event type and/or some sort of status that you can use in the Filter condition.
