It has to be something simple - I had it working last night, but I can't remember what I did.

I have a database named API - Image Hosting.  I use Zapier to create a record in this database.

I see Database and Author only - where are the fields for title and content?

When I test I get the obvious error "TITLE_CONTENT_REQUIRED".

 

Have you checked the permissions on those fields to ensure you are not restricting them in any way?

Good suggestion!   All permissions are set to full for everyone.

Any others?   Zapier support should come back tomorrow, hopefully.

Still working with their support.

I have tried setting a default value for both fields, but I still get the error.

Does default value here work the same as default value in mysql?  i.e.  If I don't send the title field, would the default value be applied?  

If it states its required, you need to enter it. You would be unable to omit this

Still dealing with Zapier support - they reply every 24-36 hours with redundant copy/paste responses.    

I've found a workaround using the API, but I will post the solution (when found) in case this happens to someone else.

I request my Zapier API key be re-generated.  

Zapier support cannot figure out what's going on.  I see the fields load quickly before vanishing on the screen.  Hoping there is some corruption in my existing record, so I need a new key.

Glad at least you have a direction to try.

Do you see any errors in the browsers JS console?

Did you guys regenerate a new API key for me?   I tried reconnecting but not sure if they key changed.  It's still not working, so I need to let them know if we tried this step or not.

Thanks.  You are staff - did you reset my key?

No.  We are at the troubleshooting step of resetting my account.

Please let me know when you reset my Zapier API so I can continue troubleshooting.

We have no way in which to change your Zapier API key.

We did not change your API key

Ok, so the Zapier key is tied to meta data on my account.  I have asked them if thy can wipe their record of me, so I can start again.

Ended up cancelling my account today.  I'm getting better with API's, so if they cannot solve such a basic issue, why do I need them?

Support really sucks on the "Starter" plan.   It takes support 2-3 days to reply.   I was supposedly put in contact with a higher level of support and I sent a message on Thursday morn to reset my account, but I have not heard anything, so I cancelled today.

I asked for my $ back since I was not able to get a single Zap working how I wanted it with Invision.  I'll see what they say.   I only used them because of the Invision integration!  In the meantime, I am going to look at some alternatives. 

I basically got a F you when asking for my money back.  They told me they could not refund me because there was usage on my account - usage caused by their support staff!

I never had a single zap work.

Shame that you had such a bad experience . They have now new plans and it’s now even more interesting for average Joe with webhooks support in free plans too.
