Hello world,

 

I have looked on the forums and found some similar questions but haven’t been able to get this to work and wondering if someone could help.

I’m looking to pull data from this website (https://open.toronto.ca/dataset/dinesafe/). It could be on any interval really, doesn’t have to be as soon as its been updated, although that would be nice.

I have used Zapier to connect various apps before and am very comfortable using spreadsheets too, but don’t know anything about coding except for a very basic understanding.

 

If someone can help point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated! 

 

Cheers,

Hi there @spacecatdebt,

Welcome to the Community! 🎉

If the website has an open API, you can use Webhooks by Zapier. With that being said,  Webhooks by Zapier is considered an advanced feature, so our support for it may be more limited. Not because we don't want to help, but because APIs can be so different and each request can be so unique. This makes it hard for us to know why the request may be receiving errors or not working as expected. 

If you’d like help setting up Webhooks by Zapier. I’d recommend reaching out to one of our certified Zapier Experts here: https://zapier.com/experts

Hopefully, this helps!
