Question

How do I split comma-separated ShipStation order data into separate Monday.com columns using Zapier?

Hello! 

 

I am trying to inherit order data from Shipstation to a monday.com board.

 

On orders with multiple line items - Shipstation adds them but as comma-separated values. It does this on the product name, part number, and quantity. I was able to format and split the text in the Formatter by Zapier - but when I send it all to Monday.com it gets sent as one Item (Column) and doesn't know to split those fields into multiple columns. 

 

For clarity - right now it’s outputting:

 

Order number - Quantity, 1,1,1, Product Code, 1234,4567,2736, and product name (Soap, Shampoo, Conditioner) all into one Monday board/item instead of splitting the quantity - product code, and product name into multiple Monday boards/items.

Hi @benihana242 

The data is likely output from ShipStation as an array of line items, so you may not need to use a Formatter step to split the data.

You can iterate thru each line item using this Zap action: Looping - Create Loop from Line Item
