Error connecting Firebase and Zapier #55

Open Linenfelser opened 8 years ago

Linenfelser commented 8 years ago

I keep getting this error when trying to test my zap:

Javascript Exception: Error: Firebase paths/keys cannot contain the characters $ # . [ ].

All I have in my path to data is "date". Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks.

most likely there's some "period" in the key somewhere. look carefully. please provide more information about your situation, such as what your zapier or firebase screen looks like,

Hey Andrew I was able to get it to work. For "path to data", include "events/gmail/[date gmail field]". Underneath it you'll see "Fields". Under the right field, enter the same one you used above and then rename it in the left field. Once you test it you should get a success message. See here if you have any questions: https://zapier.com/help/firebase/#customizing-fields-to-store
