WordPress error: Error executing Custom Action to https://zapier.com/app/extensions/api/v1/actions/24368/run:
Hey, I am trying to set up a Zap that changes the wordpress (WP) user role when a tag is added in ActiveCampaign (AC). The AC-trigger part is easy and works.
But the WP part is making me tear my hair out:
Already the first part failsÂ
Failed to create a get user by email (custom action) in WordPress

Hi @LilyWatteauÂ
For us to have full context, please post screenshots with how your WP Zap step is configured.
Hey Troy, thank you, here are the steps I did: I really hope you can help figure out why it is not working! <3
sorry, I had forgotten to change the domain. But the error is the same:

@LilyWatteauÂ
Is your website domain “yourwebsite.com”?
Â
No it is not, but I noticed and changed that (see the reply with only two screenshots.  It still gave me the same error.
Show screenshots of the DATA IN you are testing with.

Remove the trialing / after users in the URL

Remove the additional header.

Well I am testing Zapier to see whether I want to got with it or with another service. Doesn’t make sense to pay an expert, if I may not sign up for it in the end.
I cannot believe that I should be the only person ever to want to change wordpress user role.
I will try your suggestions and see.
My other zap “create user” was so quick and easy. I thought that Zapier was maybe the right service for me. Now I am not so sure.
@LilyWatteauÂ
Using App APIs in Zaps is an advanced approach and the intricacies of doing so depends on the App API requirements.
It surely is. But IMO it should not require anything advanced to change a wordpress user role. It seems odd that this is not standardly available.
The create wp user exists and it was such a breeze to use. :-D
Anyhow, thank you so much for your help! I appreciate your time and effort very much.
