Question

Required field "To Email(s)" (recipients) is missing and not populating

Hello Zapier Support,

I’m trying to build a Zap that automatically sends an email through Outlook when a project phase changes in my CMS (Filevine).

  • Trigger: Filevine → Project Phase Changed

  • Action: Outlook → Send Email

  • Issue: When I test the trigger, Zapier pulls in some project fields (name, ID, etc.), but it does not pull in the client’s email or phone number. Without that, I can’t map the “To” field in Outlook.

In Filevine, the client’s email is stored under their contact role (Client). Is there a way for Zapier to access the contact role fields, or do I need to surface the client’s email via a custom field in Filevine so Zapier can pull it?

I even tried putting the email for my client in another static section. 

Could you confirm if the Filevine integration supports pulling client contact details (email/phone), and if not, what the recommended workaround is?

Thanks for your help,

Hi ​@SIF 

You can try adding a Filevine “Find” step to find the record to see if that returns the email address to use.

How do you do that?

@SIF 

Review the available Filevine Zap triggers/actions: https://zapier.com/apps/filevine/integrations#triggers-and-actions

Search for “Find”.

Hey ​@SIF, just checking in 👋 Were you able to locate the Find Contact Filevine search action and use it to get the contact’s email?
