I've created a custom action. How do I add it to a zap? I can't see it anywhere


Forum|alt.badge.img

I have created a custom action using the AI interface. (get value from last cell in a google sheet)

It works well.

How do I now integrate it into my zap?

Clicking the plus sign to ‘add a step’ brings up a list of apps in the usual way but no sign of the custom action I just created or a ‘custom actions library’ category.

What am I doing wrong?

For the Zap step, select the app that you created the Custom Action for, then select the desired action event for that app in the Zap step config.

Hi @ETBrain 

Did you confirm you saved the Custom Action to be available to select in the Zap action step?

Hi Troy

It has been published.  Is that what you mean?

 

I can see it at https://zapier.com/app/extensions but there is no sign of it when I try to add an action..

Ahhh got it.  I kept getting distracted by the ‘custom actions library’ link at the top and didn’t scroll down to see my action in the list.

Great - thanks for your help Troy
