Clio updating task when a new email comes in


Forum|alt.badge.img+1

Hello guys, I need help implementing a solution on clio integration. Here’s what we like to do:

  1. Create a trigger for gmail new email
  2. Parse out client name from the email
  3. Get the clio matter ID using the client name
  4. Mark a specific task in clio as complete based on the matter ID  or whatever unique field I can use

 

I tried but I’m having a problem getting the task ID which is a required field to update a task in clio.

Hi there @Arsie,

Before we dig deeper into this, could you please share screenshot with how your Zap is configured? Especially, the step where you’re having the issue? Please don’t include/blur out any personal information in the screenshot.

Thanks! 😊

I found an API, https://app.clio.com/api/v4/tasks.json?matter_id={matterId}&fields=id,name 
Can anyone help me use this on my zap action instead? I tried but I’m getting unauthorized error.
