Zoom password settings not working on new meetings

I’ve set my zoom defaults to require a password for new meetings. This is also apparently something Zoom starting doing as of April 5th. When I create a new meeting with my zap, there is no required password on the newly created meeting in zoom.  I also updated my settings to include muting all participants upon entering, this setting appeared to automatically trigger with the new meeting created via zap as I would expect it to.   Thanks for any help with this!   Katie

Webflow hosted site with Recharge / Shopify Integration?

Hi there, I’m looking to build a site through (and hosted on) Webflow and using the Shopify backend with a subscription feature using the Recharge app.What would be the easiest way to go about this? What is the most reliable way?I know of Webhooks, but have never implemented them before, and I’m wondering if there would be too much of integrations for a seamless experience.Thank you!

Google Sheets connected to BigQuery, how does it work?

Hey guys, how are you doing?I have a Sheet that is connected with Google BigQuery, and we recorded a macro that updates this sheet everyday at midnight. Today we have more than 500 records that are being pushed from BigQuery as rows, and as result, we face this message in Google Sheets:Translating to English:“End of Visualization. This view shows the first 500 rows. Graphs, pivot tables and functions use the entire data set."If I connect a Zap to this tab in my sheet, it will trigger for the new data that is added when the macro runs? Or I need to make a workaround to solve this?Just to make clear the purpose of this automation: for every record that is added on our BigQuery database, we want to send an NPS email.What do you guys suggest?

multi WooCommerce sites

We have more than 50 WooCommerce sites for our clients and everytime updating the product data manually is a pain, is there a way to create a zap where the end user upload their product info on as JIRA service desk ticket and the zap can automatically create a product in WooCommerce? The fun part here is, how we do we handle different logins for WooCommerce, though we capture the site URL as part of JIRA service Desk ticket.

Salesforce App APIs - Classic vs Lightning

Fellow Zapiers,Looking for confirmation that the Salesforce app integration uses the Salesforce Classic APIs, not the newer Salesforce Lightning APIs. Thru testing, I’ve confirmed the Salesforce app action to “Create Attachment” uses the Salesforce Classic APIs, because attachments don’t appear in the Salesforce Lightning view for an Object, but does appear in the Salesforce Classic view for an Object if using the proper Layout sections.Same is true, if using “Create Record” to for the “Attachment” Object or “Note” Object.Also, “File” is NOT available as an Object to select when using the “Create Record” action. Any thoughts on how to address this without using the Salesforce Lightning APIs?Any insights on if/when the Salesforce app integration will be updated to use the Salesforce Lightning APIs?Does Zapier maintain the Salesforce integration or does Salesforce?(BONUS: Is there a way to tell which apps integrations are maintained by Zapier?) Salesforce Lightning Platform REST API: htt

Ability to print a zap flow

I can’t find any feature that allows me to print out the high-level view of a zap, with sufficient detail to understand what’s happening. There is a “detail view” that looks like this:but that’s clearly not helpful. Even just a list of titles and integration would be helpful. In the above scenario I have conditional flows so I would also need to see a flow diagram.Without this ability, I expect that my zaps will continue to proliferate without any clear idea of their quality or capabilities. I’ll need to document everything by hand, outside of zapier. Is this something that zapier intends to support? If not, who would like to see it implemented?

First Order Zap (Shopify + Google Sheets)

Hi Zap Community! New to Zapier and was hoping someone might know if this zap is even possible. I’ve tried to set it up and keep running into an error in my last ‘Update Spreadsheet Row in Google Sheets’ action.  When a new wholesale account reaches out to us, they fill out an application form and the data is automatically imported into a Google Sheet from their form response. It’s contains all the company’s basic details and I’m hoping I can create a Zap to have it function as an account tracking system as well. I would love to be able to run a zap that will tell this Google Sheet when a New Customer places their first order on Shopify.  My trigger event is a New Customer in Shopify (buyer email)Filter action is only continue if Total Spent is greater than 1.00Action - Look Up Spreadsheet Row (column is the buyer email)Action - Update Spreadsheet Row… this is where I’m stuck! How do I finish this? Any insight is appreciated :)  getting stuck here on step 4 :)

jotform to printful

Hi, I actually have a few questions that I hope I can be helped with.  My goal originally is to have a person submit info on jotform and that will autofill a new order on printful with all their information, then when I get done working on their product I can just add it to the order and send it (if that makes sense). Is that possible to do?If so my next question is when trying to create an order, there are options like “File Url” and “Quantity” etc. but there are options that were grabbed from a past order on jotform.  Are those just samples to show how it works?  And I also wasn’t sure what or where the “File Url” dropdown is asking for? Thanks for your time!

Paypal to Mailchimp - A Zap for each product/paypal button

I have different Paypal buttons (one for each product I sell) and I´m trying to set the Paypal > Mailchimp zap, so I can send, for example, “buyer of product 1” to Mailchimp with “product 1” tag, “buyer of product 2” with “product 2” tag, and so on. I read here I should use the FILTER feature to identify each Paypal button and send to Mailchimp with it´s appropriate tag, so I may build one zap for each Paypal button. I´m trying to use the Paypal button´s ID as identifier but I can´t seem to figure out which data I should link to button´s ID number.
