I am trying to pull message content from channels/direct messages/discussions from within RocketChat. I am trying to take specific messages from the Chats and to then insert it elsewhere (airtable for example)
I have made sure I am connected with correct permissions. But I have run into the following odd issues:
- When trying to catch starred messages - Zapier is not finding any (but i know there are). I have tried testing with starring private messages, team messages, channel messages etc. but Zapier will not find them even though the trigger is called “starred message anywhere”
- When trying to catch pinned messages - the trigger works, but there is no where i can see to catch the actual message content - but rather only message related meta, eg: Room ID, username, date etc.
Also, When trying to catch any message with a specific word included (using a filter) - here too, there is no way to access the actual message content.
In the RocketChat API, i see there is a key called ‘msg’ which contains the data i need, but it is not available to select in the variable list (example below)
Thanks in advance for helping on these 2 issues.
