I don’t see any of the predefined actions that do this so I’m trying to use the Monday API request.   I’m getting an error and not the result I want.  Attaching screenshots.  What am I doing wrong?

For the Monday Zap trigger you are using, it should return these fields related to the Group:

  • Group ID
  • Group Name

 

That means you should not need other Monday Zap steps to get the Group info.

Hi @Mary S 

What Zap trigger step are you using for Monday?

Many Monday triggers/actions will return the Group ID/Name.

I’m using “Get Column Values”

I’ve tried them all.  I can’t find any there return the Group Name or ID for a specific Item

@Mary_S 

The recent screenshots only show Zap step 6.

Can you post screenshots showing how all of your Zap steps are outlined starting with Zap step 1?

Assume the previous screenshots where step 4 (I was playing with a few other ways to get the info and have since deleted them)

I see it.  It’s in the results of step 1, not in step 4.  Thank you
