400 Error on Zapier NLA code that was previously working

I am experiencing a failure of Zapier NLA API integration code that was previously working with the error message as follows: 400 Client Error: Bad Request for url: https://zapier.com/api/v4/implementations/needs/. I am trying to do a Simple Gmail send email and have verified that my permissions are set correctly for Gmail as this software previously worked. I also double checked that my API key is correct. For reference I am calling the following endpoint: https://nla.zapier.com/api/v1/dynamic/exposed/7fad00f9-b468-4640-b4ec-736d9f114628/execute/. This is from a Python Implementation using the requests library do do a simple API communication. I also don’t see any record of the actions being called in my API logs dashboard on Zapier.

ChatGPT OAuth state invalid why trying to connect zapier actions

Whenever I try to configure a action by clicking: https://actions.zapier.com/gpt/actions/ and giving OpenAI access to Zapier, it goes back to ChatGPT and displayed “OAuth state invalid or not found” then after GPT proceeds to tell me there are no Zapier actions connected even though I know I made sure they are turned on;. I have loaded the schema and done everything asked for in the tutorial. I’ve deleted my cookies, tried microsoft edge and Firefox, nothing seems to work. Any suggestions as to how to troubleshoot this?Thank you,OptimizeAll

Is there any way to display 'Action setup window' inside an iframe?

Hello,We want to use Zapier NLA. When we open the link (https://nla.zapier.com/dev/start/) in a separate window it’s working fine. But we want to embed it with an iframe, then it displayed actions UI but failed to save any changes and login. Is there any way to make it work inside an iframe?Error on saving:POST https://nla.zapier.com/dev/actions/save/ 403 (Forbidden)

NLA, Langchain and Google sheets

I am working on an AI project with Langchain, a platform that allows me to use large language models (LLMs) for various tasks. I have connected my Langchain project with the Zapier NLA API, which is supposed to enable me to integrate different apps and services with natural language commands. I have written some Python code to run my project, but it does not seem to work properly. The code should send some data from my project to a new row in a Google sheet, but when I check the sheet, nothing has changed. I don't know why this is happening, and I can't find any helpful tutorials on the Langchain website. The tutorials are only for basic use cases, but I need to use AutoGPT, a custom agent that uses long-term memory and a prompt for independent work. I have tried contacting Zapier support, but they are very slow to reply. Does anyone have any experience with using Zapier and Langchain together with AutoGPT? I would appreciate any advice or guidance. Thank you.

NLA rate limits

Hello,I want to use the NLA API. I am testing them, so I know how reliable they are. However, after about 10 or so queries, I am inevitably met with {error: rate limit exceeded...}.  Is this rate limit per action or for the whole of the NLA API? Where is that rate limit described? I couldn’t find it anywhere in the docs.  Is there a way to increase this rate limit? Do unsuccessful queries count toward the rate limit? I’m asking because I currently, if I hit the rate limit, I try a few more times. If this counts toward the rate limit, it’s a bit counterproductive to do this.

ZAPIER NLA Prices

Hi there,I have been trying to find some information regarding prices for zapier natural language actions. I was only able to find the zapier nla is free for partners and developers but will not for end-users after beta. What does this mean?If I am a developer requesting access to my users’ zapier accounts via OAuth, it means I am accessing my users actions, correct?Will these actions have a price? Any help is appreciated.

How do I find events by time, not by name using NLA API?

Hello,I want to find events using the NLA API.I want, if I receive an email, and if it appropriate, to automatically book an event. However, I do not want to book an event when there is already an event then. How do I find events in my and other people of the same organisation’s calendar?If I query the NLA API like so: “Find me the weekly sprint planning event”, it finds it no problem. However, if I query “Find me all events until the end of the week”, or even “Find me the event tomorrow at 11AM”, it find nothing. EDIT: I found an ugly, ugly hack. I guess Zapier, behind the scenes, is creating a “search term”, based on your query, and if you put a search term “*”, it matches everything. So you can query for “Find the events this week with search term *”. This is very ugly and depends on something Zapier has not exposed publicly, so it may change at any point.

Zapier NLA Errors

I have been testing the Zapier NLA tool with Langchain.  I have set up a Slack message as one of my actions, and am using it with a MRKL agent.  I am having a problem where if I do not define a value for every field in the setup, but leave some of them for the AI to figure out, I get an error message stating, “Failed to execute action 01H499970A8VJYCQ0YVSRD43TJ with instructions undefined.”  When I fill in the fields, it works just fine.  Any idea why that might be happening?
