I am trying to send clean data from one step to the next. I transform the trigger data using Zapier Formatter, and then pass the transformed data to the next step. However, I receive an error message. When I run the AI troubleshooting, I receive the following:

The error occurred because the value "Phyllis\r" contains a carriage return character (\r), which is not allowed in HTTP header values. This character likely came from the output of the previous step using the ZapierFormatterCLIAPI@1.0.4 app.

In the example, “Phyllis” is the name from the previous step and has run through the Zapier Formatter already. 

 

Any suggestions on how I can clean up the text? 

Hi there @matthew_crider,

Welcome to the Community! 🎉

Before we dig deeper into this, would you mind sharing a detailed screenshot of how your Zap is configured? Also, please share a screenshot of the “Action” section of the action step that shows all of its fields. Like so:

Please don't include personal information in the screenshot, or be sure blur out any personal information.

Thanks!

Hi @matthew_crider 👋

It’s been a while since we heard from you on this, were you since able to get this solved? 

If not, I wonder if there might have been a carriage return added accidentally to the Input field on the Formatter action. In which case, clearing the field and reselecting the relevant field from the trigger should help to resolve things. That said, you might also need to do that for the field that has the output from the Formatter action selected too, just in case the carriage return was added there.

If that doesn’t fix it, can you share a screenshot of the current setup of the Formatter and action step that’s erroring so we can better see if there’s something else that might be causing errors for you here?

Looking forward to hearing from you!
