Hello,

 

I am fairly new to using Zapier and I am trying to find a way to pull existing or historical data from Basecamp to add to Hubspot or Google Sheets.  Example, my organization uses Basecamp to communicate project requests, tech issues, or information that needs to be shared to various teams.  I am going through Basecamp and adding a comment on each message that I would like to add to a knowledgebase or create a support ticket for.  I am using #knowledgebase to these comments to pull these posts, which could have been created last month, last week, or even earlier than that.  When I try to create a Zap, it seems like it won’t work unless there is a new item created, etc.  However, I may just not know use Zapier to pull information that already exists.  

 

The logic would look something like:

Find any Basecamp message board items in a project area with comments with #knowledgebase and create a new ticket in HubSpot or create a new row (with that content) in Google Sheets.

Thanks

Hi @pcsanders 

Good question.

Please clarify which version of Basecamp you are using.

 


Basecamp 3


Hi @pcsanders 

Good question.

Hi Troy, its Basecamp 3.
Thanks

NOTE: Zaps work while turned ON for new data going forward.

Have you tried these Zap steps?

  1. Trigger: Basecamp 3 - New Comment
  2. Action: Filter
  3. Action: HubSpot - Create Ticket
  4. Action: GSheets - Create Row

 


@pcsanders welcome to Community! And bravo for diving into your first Zap ⚡️

As @Troy Tessalone mentioned, Zaps will only pull over your new data so if you have your existing data in Google Sheets, this Zap will pull over new data moving forward 🙂

I suggest trying out the set up Troy mentioned above, submitting a test comment within Basecamp 3 and seeing if that does the trick!

 

  1. Trigger: Basecamp 3 - New Comment
  2. Action: Filter
  3. Action: HubSpot - Create Ticket
  4. Action: GSheets - Create Row

 

Let us know how you get on- we’ll be here if you need us!
