This post has been edited by a moderator to remove personal information. Please remember that this is a public forum and to remove any sensitive information prior to posting.ive been using this perticular zap for over 6 years and unfortunalty today it decided to change the output of the results, its splitting the title of empty results as seen below. ive have checked the zap itself and nothing was changed and looks correct. Can someone help? 🙏
I created a custom integration using the Zapier Platform UI and setup this input:Key: assessment_type Type: String Required: True Dropdown: True Dropdown Type: Static Dropdown Source: ["Initial Assessment", "Reauthorization"]When I pass that input a value of “Reauthorization” (without the quotes), the value sent in my API call is::censored:15:fef622f38c:I’m accessing the value of the input using JavaScript string interpolation:`${bundle.inputData.assessment_type}`Does anyone know what’s going on here?Thanks,Eric
Hi there!There's no category for Output Fields, so I'm posting it here. I’m pretty sure I've run into some bugs w.r.t. dynamic output fields.It seems like dynamic output fields are only evaluated either:Once the workflow action is fully configured and a “Test node” action is performed, or If the dynamic field generation callback is the only outputField in the outputFields listThe docs say that dynamic fields are automatically evaluated and merged with the static output fields. This hasn't been my experience. Something seems to be bugged there.Also, it seems that the interactions with altersDynamicFields don't work at all for dynamic outputFields. I would expect that if I mark an inputField as altersDynamicFields, then a change in the inputField value would also trigger a re-evaluation of all dynamic outputFields (after all, if even the configuration of the node is dependent on this value, how can you expect dynamic outputFields to stay static?). This also doesn't seem to work, though I
I have an action that pull a list of items to select in a dropdown. The items have a human readable label and a UUID value. When I’m editing the Zap I can see the selected value label as expectedHowever after I’ve configured my Zap and view it in display mode the field only shows the value (not the label)How can I get the display mode of the action to show the label as well? The end user will have no idea what that UUID is and this may confuse them.
I am trying to create a zap that would automatically send emails to our accounting platform whenever a new attachment (receipt/invoice) is added. Everything works perfectly but, unfortunately, there is no field available to display the name of the initiator of the transaction. There is a “Initiator ID” field but not the actual name...
Suppose, I want to take a the following values as input from user while authenticating a connection: Field1 Field2 Field3 Field4The field1 has a drop-down from which a user has to select. Based on the drop-down value selected by the user, I want the following actions to take place: Showing up of field2 Populating default value of field3 Showing up of field4 based on the value supplied on field3 I haven’t found an example source code for dynamic fields addition and hence I’d be thankful if anybody could let me know if this is possible in zapier and how can this be achieved in a CLI app (would be really glad if there’s a working example on addition of dynamic fields in zapier CLI app). The zapier-platform-core version being used is 12.1.0.
I have a trigger with the inputs: ...{ key: 'client_id', type: 'string', required: true, label: 'Client Id', dynamic: 'client_ids.id.name', list: false, altersDynamicFields: true,},{ key: 'merchant_id', type: 'string', required: true, label: 'Merchant Id', dynamic: 'merchant_ids.id.name', list: false, altersDynamicFields: false,} ...I have a client_ids trigger returning the following to populate the dropdown:[{id: 1, name: ‘one},{id: 2, name: ‘two},] In merchant_ids trigger I want to get the name of the field selected from the client_id dropdown." When I do bundle.inputData.client_id I get the id. Is there a way to get the name ?
Hi, I am developing a zapier trigger. I have a text input called “order form id” in the input field. Depends on the input, the perform list should retrieve different key value pairs. I tried accessing it using `bundle.intputData` but that seems to be empty in the perform list call. Please let me know how to access input field in perform list! Thank you
I have a dynamic field on my input screen and I would like to be able to reference the key or label of the input field from the bundle so I can use that to determine what field to look up in my trigger.For example if the user clicks on a dynamic field that looks up lead sources, it fires my dynamic field trigger, and in my trigger I would like to reference the name of the field (not the value) that called the trigger so I can pass that as a query parameter to the trigger API call.This way I could prevent having to create a unique trigger for every single dynamic field that I want to look up.

Currently in my Zapier App, users are allowed to select multiple options for one of my input fields. This list of options can be large for some users and other users would like the ease of use to just click a button to select all options. Is that something we can support in the Input Designer for a dynamic dropdown somehow? I didn’t find anything like that in the documentation or the Input Designer
Hi there! I am creating a Zapier integration for other Zapier customers to use, but I am having problem adding an object as an input (dynamic object, like nested json file). Do anyone know how to manage this?For example: "margin": { "top": "40px", "bottom": "40px", "left": "30px", "right": "30px" }
Hi there guys,I am developing an app where Ias an input I need to display a dropdown with two options (I am able to do that :) ).What I need to do is display a set of different subsequent fields according to the dropdown selection. I tried using custom code to do that and was not able to find any documentation on the matter.Heres what I tried: The dropdown field: This is the subsequent input and what I tried using js: let recipients = { "key": "Recipients", "children": [ { key: "Phone", label: "Phone Number", type: "string" }, { key: "firstname", label: "First Name", type: "string" }, { key: "lastname", label: "Last Name", type: "string" }, { key: "MessageMedia", label: "Message Media", type: "string" } ]};let sendType = bundle.inputData.sendType;if (sendType == "Recipients"){ return recipients;}if (sendType == "Groups"){ return groups;} It doesnt work and I would really appreciate some guidence.Th
I see that using a `dict: true` input field allows me to set have the value of each dictionary item set based on dynamic data from a previous trigger. What I’d like to do is have the dictionary key field populate from the results of an API call to my database. In my database I can define the custom attributes field types. I’d like to be able to click into the key field and choose from a dynamic dropdown of API results (if any are retrieved) rather than having to type in the value. Is there a way to have the “key” field populate from a trigger or search step? I’ve seen similar questions asked about this and some of the answers suggested using a dynamic inputField instead. Would that allow me to provide a list of Form Field names for the key AND dynamic contact data for the value?Also I can’t add predefined keys as we don’t know what the custom attribute will be or how many there will be.Dictionary input field with value data dynamically supplied from trigger
Hey guys, first post here and hopefully someone can help me. I have an input field which I am using to make a request to and get a response that looks like so:{ "StatusId": 1, "StatusDescription": "Success", "DetailedDescription": "", "FunctionName": "api/v2/WhatsApp/GetTemplate", "RequestId": ",wWYuJXZ05WauUncvZmbp5CMxkGchNWPl1WYOR3cvhkJyMTQzUSM1E0MlETMrYjMtIDMtQjMwITPw1WY0NVZtlGVmEzNyAzNwETPklkclNXV", "Data": { "TemplateId": 150351, "TemplateName": "תבנית שיווקית בסיסית משופעת כפתורים (5)", "MessageText": "שלום [#1#],\r\nתודה על קנייתך. \r\nאנו בטוחים שתהנה מ[#2#] החדש שלך.\r\nלהלן מידע חיוני לשימוש במוצר.\r\nשמחנו לסייע. ואנו זמינים לכל שאלה.\r\n\r\nבברכה,\r\nKirBi\r\n\r\nלהסרה השב הסר", "TemplateParameters": [ "[#1#]", "[#2#]" ], "ApprovalStatus": 5, "ApprovalStatusDescription": "New", "Category": "UTILITY" }} What I want to do is iterate over Data.TemplateParameters and create inputs accordingly..I thought I was doing this correctly using the code editor and ended up w
I am trying to develop an app using the Zapier CLI.I have two input fields:One is a key-value dictionary where the customer types the “name” of the attribute as key, and its value in the value field. The next input field is a multi-select dropdown where we want the customers to select all the fields that are “object” attributes, so we can parse them and make an API call as an object attribute instead of the default behaviour which is to convert, for example, the above JSON, into string.Here is the code that I am using:// ...if ( bundle.inputData.other_attributes != null && Object.keys(bundle.inputData.other_attributes).length ) { for (const [key, value] of Object.entries( bundle.inputData.other_attributes )) { newBody['attributes'][key] = value; } // loop through values of object_attributes and match keys if (bundle.inputData.object_attributes != null && bundle.inputData.object_attributes.length) { for (i in bun
Hey all, I’m an engineer that just joined the team at beehiiv, the email newsletter platform. I’ve taken over development for our Zapier app and am working to make some major updates to it in the coming weeks. I’m new to Zapier development, but not new to Javascript in general. I’m struggling to find a format that allows for the intended use of how a user would input custom fields. We allow for multiple custom fields to be passed on create subscriber and update subscriber requests in our API and they need both the id and the value. To simplify the user experience, I made a Zapier trigger that will fetch the custom fields on a user’s account dynamically and allow them to select by name, rather than needing to know the custom field ID. This works as intended. Here’s how I’ve done that in code. This is the input field: { key: "custom_fields", children: [ { key: "field_name", label:
Hi Zapier Community,I hope you're all doing well. I'm reaching out here because I'm facing a bit of a roadblock while trying to create a Custom Action for Brevo. My goal is to set up an automation that allows me to create a new campaign through Brevo's API https://developers.brevo.com/reference/createemailcampaign-1.I've followed the instructions provided and used the Zapier custom action assistant, but I seem to be encountering an issue. When I create the Input Fields, I can only see one field called "campaignDetails." However, according to Brevo's API documentation, there should be more fields available for input.I'm not very technical, so I apologize if this seems like a basic question. Essentially, what I'm trying to achieve is to have the ability to control all the fields as per Brevo's API documentation directly from Zapier.Could someone kindly guide me through the process or point me in the right direction? Any assistance or insights would be greatly appreciated.Thank you so muc
Hello guys,I´m developing a Zapier App and its required to select a parent-folder to create something inside it. Im using the Zapier CLI and a wanted to ask how to generate a field with a folder-structure-view like shown in the image (example from the Google Drive Zapier App):Is there a documentation in Zapier CLI regarding that?I know that could be achieved with key: "directory", but I need a few triggers with folder structure.
hi all,Is there a way to have required children if and only if the parent has been set or to make items required as a group? We’re trying to do something like the following, where (in this example) supplying pets is optional but if someone supplies part of a pet’s information they have to supply all of it.// Doesn't work, ends up effectively making all pets required...inputFields: [ { key: "first_pet", required: false, children: [ { key: "first_pet_name", required: true, type: 'string' }, { key: "first_pet_species", required: true, type: 'string' }, ... ] }, { key: "second_pet", required: false, children: [ { key: "second_pet_name", required: true, type: 'string' }, { key: "second_pet_species", required: true, type: 'string' }, ... ] },...]We can do this with a bunch of custom validation in perform but wondering if there’s a way to do so within the schema.
Hi all, I’ve got a dynamic dropdown that makes a request to retrieve a list of items and corresponding IDs in order to pass the IDs along: This works great but I’m wondering about trying to extend functionality - how would I go about allowing a user to match on the label (e.g., “T Shirt”) of the Merchandise Item? I of course can setup additional dynamic input fields to drive this if need be (such as what’s written here) but is there an easier way that I’m missing?
