Hey again @Abdul-Omar!  Thanks for reaching out again -- I see you opened a ticket with our support team and I would ask that you continue this conversation there with them for the moment.  I suspect we need to take a deeper look into this issue than we can provide in Community and I do see Ben from our support team reached out to you a couple of days ago.  I am positive we can help you get this sorted out via email =)

Already did and this issue seem to be due to the deprecated create order option in zapier, here is another forum about it and I am posting now to see if there is a solution to this issue

Hi @Abdul-Omar, hope you’re doing well!

 

The error is telling us that the provided value for the Order ID field in the Square Create Invoice step doesn’t match what Square is expecting.

I suggest adding a Square Create Paid Order step on the Zap. This would then provide an ID field that should give the Order ID needed in the Create Invoice step:

 

I hope that helps. Please let me know if you have further questions.
