How to auto-select widget in Zapier

Updated this week

Step 1: Set Up a Trigger

Start by configuring a trigger to initiate your workflow.

Step 2: Create a Widget Mapping Spreadsheet

Set up a Google Sheets spreadsheet to map search parameters to widget IDs.

  • 2.1 Define Row Structure:

    • Each row should include a Search Parameter and the corresponding Widget ID.

  • 2.2 Retrieve Widget ID:

    • Copy the Widget ID from the widget's URL on the dashboard.


Step 3: Add a "Lookup Spreadsheet Row" Action

After configuring the trigger, add a Lookup Spreadsheet Row action in Google Sheets.

  • 3.1 Configure the Lookup Action:

    • Select a Lookup Column.

    • Set a Lookup Value using test data from the trigger.


Step 4: Use the Lookup Result in the Create Call Action

In the Create Call action, use the row retrieved in the previous step to define the widget.

Note: If no matching widget is found during the lookup, you won't be able to configure custom parameters or perform a test call.

Important Considerations

  • Ensure your spreadsheet includes all possible search parameter variations. If no matching row is found, the call will not proceed.

  • You can define multiple search parameters for a single widget. For example:

  • The same widget can be used if the country field in the trigger is SE or Sweden:
