Congratulations, Zapier Integration for WooCommerce is now installed. Please proceed to the Usage guide for details on how to use Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
To create a WooCommerce Zap, we recommend using one of the Zap templates, as it is typically quicker than hand-crafting your Zap from scratch.
Create a Zap from Scratch
If you would like to start from scratch, go to your Zapier dashboard page on zapier.com and press the Create button (top right), then choose Zap to create a new Zap.
↑ Back to top
When you create your first WooCommerce Zap, you will be asked to choose your WooCommerce account.
The authentication process involves the Zapier.com service connecting to your WooCommerce store using your WordPress administrator username and password.
Please ensure you complete the authentication dialog window correctly:
In the WordPress Site Address (URL) field, enter the URL to your WordPress website’s home (front) page. Be sure the URL starts with https:// and does not include the trailing slash.
For example: https://example.com
If in doubt, go to the WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Settings —> General screen and copy the Site Address (URL) field value and paste it into the WordPress Site Address (URL) field in the authentication dialog window.
In the WordPress Username field, enter your administrator username or email address that you use when logging into the WordPress dashboard.
In the WordPress Application Password field, create an Application Password for your WordPress administrator account.
Use a WordPress Application Password for isolation and better compatibility:
Using an application password (rather than your regular password) improves compatibility with security-related plugins and services. Also keeps user and service related access separated. See details in the [Security Plugins](#security-plugins) chapter.
To set up an Application Password, go to **WordPress Dashboard** --> **Side Menu** --> **Users** --> **Profile** screen and press the "Add New Application Password" button. Please [see here for details](#application-passwords).
Can't see the Application Passwords settings in WordPress? Please [see here for suggestions](#application-passwords).
Alternatively, you can use your regular WordPress password.
Click the Yes, Continue to WooCommerce button to complete the process.
Authentication dialog windowCongratulations, you have successfully authenticated!
What’s next?
If you would like to send WooCommerce data to your Zap, please continue to the Trigger chapter.
Alternatively, if you would like to create new (or update existing) WooCommerce data from your Zap, please go to the Action chapter.
↑ Back to top
This feature allows you to send WooCommerce data to a Zapier Zap.
Step 1: Trigger step
In the Choose App & Event step, search for the WooCommerce app and click it.
Select the Resource (data type) in the Choose Trigger Event dropdown — for example, Order if you would like to send WooCommerce orders to Zapier.
In the Choose Account step, click on the Sign in to WooCommerce button to authenticate your Zapier account with your WooCommerce store.
If you are already authenticated, you can choose the previously used authentication from the WooCommerce account dropdown menu instead.
In the Find Data step, click the Test & Continue button to retrieve sample data from your WooCommerce store.
When retrieving sample data from your store, it isn’t contextual to the Trigger Rule you have chosen for the Zap. Find Data simply retrieves your most recent store data (regardless of status) when getting sample data.
However, once you turn on your Zap, the trigger rule will apply and should only send relevant data to Zapier.
Step 2: Action step
In the Choose App & Event step, choose a service to send your WooCommerce data to.
Once your Zap is published, it will operate on data that is added or changed from that point forward.
If you need to process existing data through your Zap, you can transfer your existing data using your new Zap.
↑ Back to top
Actions allow you to create new (or update existing) WooCommerce data from a Zapier Zap.
Step 1: Trigger steps
In the Choose App & Event step, choose a service to get the source data from.
Finish configuring the Trigger.
Step 2: Action steps
In the Choose App & Event step, select the WooCommerce app.
Choose the Action in the Choose Action Event dropdown — for example, Create Order.
In the Choose Account step, click on the Sign in to WooCommerce button to authenticate your Zapier account with your WooCommerce store.
If you are already authenticated, you can choose the previously used authentication from the WooCommerce account dropdown menu instead.
Fill in all of the WooCommerce input fields that you want to send data to. You can choose data fields from the Trigger part of your Zap, or you can type in hard-coded values.
In the Send Data step, click the Test & Continue button to finish the Action configuration.
Once your Zap is published, it will operate on data that is added or changed from that point forward.
If you need to process existing data through your Zap, you can transfer your existing data using your new Zap.
↑ Back to top
This feature allows you to create new data in WooCommerce from a Zapier Zap. For example, you could create a Zap that creates a new Customer in WooCommerce whenever they subscribe to your mailing list.
Configure your Zap as seen in the Create an Action chapter above, and in the Choose Action Event dropdown select the corresponding CreateAction.
The following create actions are available:
↑ Back to top
This feature allows you to update existing data in WooCommerce from a Zapier Zap. For example, you could create a Zap that updates the inventory (stock) level of a WooCommerce product using Zapier.
If you know the ID of a WooCommerce Resource (for example coming from a previous step), you can update that resource with the new Update Action.
If you don’t know the ID, you can add a Find step before your update step. The result of your Find step will contain the Resource ID, which you can then use in the Update step.
Configure your Zap as seen in the Create an Action chapter above, and in the Choose Action Event dropdown select the corresponding UpdateAction.
The following update actions are available:
↑ Back to top
This feature allows you to search for existing WooCommerce data from a Zapier Zap. For example, you could search for a product based on its SKU before updating it in WooCommerce.
Configure your Zap as seen in the Create an Action chapter above, and in the Choose Action Event dropdown select the corresponding FindAction.
After finding a Resource you can immediately create one if it is not found. This is a great way to implement synchronisation functionality between two apps using Zapier.
Alternatively, after searching you can add an additional step8 to your Zap to use the found Resource/data.
The following find actions are available:
↑ Back to top
WooCommerce is designed to be flexible and extensible. Part of this extensibility is a meta data capability, which extensions/plugins can use to store their additional information/data.
For example, whenever an order is created in WooCommerce, information is often stored in the order’s meta data. Payment gateways (such as Stripe) will often store their fee and/or net revenue information in Order Meta Data.
Moreover, if you are using Custom Fields in your store, then they will typically be stored in meta data also.
In the context of Zapier Integration for WooCommerce and your Zaps, the meta data that is available for use in your Zaps is as follows:
WooCommerce meta data is automatically expanded into individual fields to make them more accessible and usable in subsequent steps in your Zaps. Furthermore, for Create… Actions a list of fields is provided for adding multiple meta data records during creation.
For example, if an Order has a stripe_fee meta data field, you can access it using the Meta Data Stripe Fee field in Zaps.
Some caveats apply when using Meta Data in your Zaps:
Meta Data fields in WooCommerce are unstructured and typically vary from one resource to another.
For example, if multiple payment gateways are used, one order may contain a specific meta data field (key), however, another order may not. This means a meta data field(s) can be missing or can be different in each task. Consider adding a Path or Filter step to your Zap, to conditionally perform separate actions depending on which Meta Data fields exist.
WooCommerce meta data fields can have multiple values for a single key. In this case, the last meta data value for that key is the one that is used in Zaps. i.e. the first value is overwritten by the second value.
The existing Meta Data, Meta Data Key and Meta Data Value fields are still present for backward compatibility reasons, however, we do not recommend using these.
When creating or configuring your Zap, the sample data chosen in the Find Data step in your trigger needs to contain the meta data fields that you would like to use in your Zap.
This makes it much easier to complete your Zap setup because the fields will be available in your Action step(s) in your Zap.
Using in Actions (Creates)
In Create Actions, you will see a Meta Data List input section, and the Meta Data input fields are labelled as “Legacy”:
The Meta Data List input field lets you add (set) multiple meta data records at once.
In the left-hand field, enter the name (key) of the meta data record you would like to add.
In the right-hand field, enter the desired value for the meta data field (you can also use template variables from previous steps when setting the value).
If you would like to add/set multiple meta data records, click the plus icon and fill in that key and value also.
The Meta Data (Legacy) fields aren’t typically used, as we recommend using the newer Meta Data List input fields instead.
↑ Back to top
Zapier also allows you to transfer your existing data from one app to another, moving data in bulk.
After setting up your Zap (and having it trigger from only that point onwards), you can also use the Transfer existing data option to move/send data in bulk.
You can use it to move WooCommerce data in bulk from WooCommerce to another app of your choosing. Or you can use it to bulk move data from other apps into WooCommerce.
See here for a great summary of this feature.
Use Cases
Below are some examples of what you can achieve using this feature.
Bulk Exporting WooCommerce Data
You can use Zapier Integration for WooCommerce to bulk export WooCommerce data to another app.
Bulk Export Orders from WooCommerce
Bulk Export Products from WooCommerce
Bulk Export Customers from WooCommerce
Bulk Export Coupons from WooCommerce
Bulk Export Bookings from WooCommerce
Bulk Export Membership Plan from WooCommerce
Bulk Export User Membership from WooCommerce
Bulk Export Subscriptions from WooCommerce
This is particularly useful if you ever change one of your underlying systems. For example, if you change your CRM to a new system, you can bulk import WooCommerce data into your new system.
Bulk Importing Data Into WooCommerce
You can use Zapier Integration for WooCommerce to bulk import data from another app into WooCommerce:
Bulk Import Orders into WooCommerce
Bulk Import Products into WooCommerce
Bulk Import Customers into WooCommerce
Bulk Import Coupons into WooCommerce
Bulk Import Subscriptions into WooCommerce
Usage
Please consult the following articles for detailed instructions:
When using WooCommerce as a source, all WooCommerce Triggers are available for use.
You select your nominated WooCommerce trigger resource, then configure your destination action and map fields, similar to how you map fields in the Zap Editor interface.
Zapier will then retrieve all of your WooCommerce data and display it in the interface.
It may take some time to retrieve all existing data from your WooCommerce store. Please be patient while data is retrieved.
You can then filter and/or search your WooCommerce data, and tick the record(s) that you would like to send to your destination app.
This allows you to easily select all (or some) of your existing WooCommerce data with a few clicks.
↑ Back to top
Paid Zapier accounts8 allow multi-step Zaps, which support having additional steps between the Trigger and Action steps. For example:
Use the Filter or Paths built-in apps to implement advanced logic or support multiple outputs.
Use the Formatter built-in app to transform field values.
Use the Code built-in app to transform data structures, or calculate new fields.
Find Steps
For accessing additional data in your Zap, you can add a Find step between your Trigger and Action steps in your Zap configuration.
You can see a list of available search (find) actions in the Actions and Searches documentation.
Finding Products from Orders
See the Product Types chapter for a full list of supported product types and functionalities.
If you are using one of the Order Triggers, and want to use the line item product category (or tag) in a subsequent action step as well, you can create a Zap that utilises a Find Product step.
There are two separate ways to implement this, depending on which Trigger you are using:
If you are using the Line Item in an Order trigger, you can configure your Zap like this:
Find Product Zap Configuration” />
Ensure you are using a Line Item in an Order step as Step 1, then add a Find Product action as Step 2.
If your store uses product SKUs, choose to search by SKU, and insert the Line Product SKU field from Step 1 into it. This instructs the Find Product step to search using the correct (unique) product SKU from the order’s line item.
If your store does not use product SKUs and uses a mix of simple and variable products, then it will not be possible to use a single Find Product step to search for the product or variation due to the way the WooCommerce Order Line Item stores the Product ID and Variation ID in different fields. Instead, we highly recommend adding SKUs to all of your products and variations and then using a Find Product Step to search by SKU.
In step 3 of your Zap (the action) you can utilise the categories —> name (or tags —> name) array which you can then use in the next step of your Zap.
Order —> Looping by Zapier —> Find Product
If you are using the Order trigger, an alternative approach is to use a Looping by Zapier step in your Zap like this:
Looping by Zapier –> Find Product Zap Configuration” />
Please see the Looping by Zapier chapter below for more details.
Filter by Zapier
Filter by Zapier allows you to add special conditions to Zaps. For example, using a filter you could configure a Zap to:
act only on orders for a specific product category
act only on orders that exceed a specified order value
act only on orders that are to be shipped to a specific country
Paths by Zapier allows you to add branching logic to Zaps. The main advantage of using Paths is that you can create up to three different outputs (paths) within a single Zap.
Please see Zapier’s help article for more details.
Looping by Zapier
Adding a Looping by Zapier action to your Zap lets you perform your desired action more than once per Zap. This is particularly useful with WooCommerce Order triggers, which have multiple line items.
Typically, you would use the Create Loop From Line Items option, with a configuration like this:
Which would allow you then use the 2. Product ID field in a subsequent step (such as a Find Product step):
Please see Zapier’s help article for more details on how to use Looping by Zapier.
Formatter by Zapier
With Formatter by Zapier, you format data in Zaps. For example, you can split or combine field contents, convert between different number or date formats, or even transform the whole data structure.
Please see Zapier’s help article for more details.
Line Itemizer
Various parts of Zapier Integration for WooCommerce require line-item-enabled data sources. See the Actions and Searches chapter for a full list of these fields.
The Line Itemizer transform in the Formatter by Zapier app allows you to easily convert comma-separated text or values into line items that can be used in Zapier Integration for WooCommerce Actions.
An Example: Adding Multiple Product Attributes to a Product
The Line Itemizer transform can be used to generate multiple product attributes that are used as part of a Create Product or Update Product action to add multiple Product Attributes to a WooCommerce Product.
In WordPress, go to WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Products —> Attributes, to see the list of store-wide Product Attributes.
On that screen, hover over one of the attributes you’d like to use and then click on Edit to edit that attribute. Your browser URL bar will show something similar to /wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=product&page=product_attributes&edit=123. Make a note of the edit=123 part of that URL. This part tells you the attribute’s ID (in this example, it is 123).
Repeat the above process for all attributes that you would like to use in your Zap.
Return to your Zap Editor, and before your WooCommerce Create Product or Update Product action, add a new Formatter by Zapier —> Line Itemizer step.
In the Set up action step, enter Attributes into the Line-item(s) Group Name field.
In the Line-item Properties section, type id in the left field, then add another row and type value:
The right-hand id field will be a comma-separated list of Attribute IDs for your store that you would like to assign to the product.
The right-hand value will be a comma-separated list of Attribute Values for the above Attribute IDs. Typically, this field won’t have manually typed values, it will instead have a comma-separated list of actual values from Step 1 of your Zap.
The output of this new Formatter step will be an array (list) of attribute IDs and their values.
You then pass that output to your Create Product or Update Product step by editing your Create Product or Update Product step and configuring it similarly to this:
When your Create Product or Update Product step executes, it will “loop” over each item in the attributes list, and send them all to WooCommerce when creating/updating the product.
The result should be a product in WooCommerce that has multiple attributes and values assigned to it.
This same technique can be used for any other line-item aware field in Zapier Integration for WooCommerce. See the Actions and Searches chapter for a full list of these line-item-enabled fields.
Code by Zapier
By adding the Code by Zapier step to your Zap, you can add fields based on the trigger data. For example, you can restructure, simplify or calculate new values. The output can be usable in the subsequent steps.
Please see Zapier’s help article for more details on how to use Javascript code in your Zaps.
We are unable to provide support for writing custom code, so you may need to enlist the support of a Certified Zapier Expert or Web Developer.
Performing Different Actions For Different Products Ordered
Each Zap that uses the Order trigger will apply to all orders (and thus all products) by default, however, it is possible to perform different actions based on the product ordered.
To set this up, we recommend using the Line Item in an Order trigger (instead of the Order trigger) because the Line Item in an Order trigger fires individually for each individual line item ordered, rather than firing only once per order. This allows you to automate based on the individual product(s) ordered.
Step 1 of your Zap should be the WooCommerce app, with Line Item in an Order as the trigger. You’ll likely use the Order paid or Order created trigger rule.
Step 2 of your Zap should be either a Paths by Zapier or Filter by Zapier step. Step 2 is where the conditional logic is added to only act on a specific product.
For example, using a Paths by Zapier step, you can set up several paths for different products in your store, which would look something like this:
For each path configuration, you would set up criteria such as the following, which is based on the name of the product ordered:
Then inside each path, you would perform your desired action.
For more details on how to use Paths in your Zaps, please see this Zapier help article.
Zapier has a limit on the number of paths (and steps) in a Zap, so if you need more paths or steps, then you will need multiple Zaps.
↑ Back to top
You can see previously sent information to Zapier on the Zapier.com Task History page.
If a task encounters a problem, it will be stopped. Zapier can distinguish between issues and will automatically stop affected task(s).
If the problem prevents not just that specific task but any later task as well, then the task will be stopped and marked as “Errored.” If repeated errors occur, then the corresponding Zap is also disabled.
Alongside the above error, Zapier can stop and mark a task as “Halted” if the problem will not prevent future tasks from being completed successfully.
You can resubmit halted or errored tasks from the Zapier Task History page if you need to.
Please look at the Issues with Tasks chapter if you have any problems.
You can find more information on the Task History Help page on Zapier.com.
↑ Back to topOrders are an essential part of the eCommerce process. They represent an “order event” followed by its various stages, such as payment, fulfilment, or shipping.
For triggers, the Order resource is accessible in two separate ways in the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce:
The Order trigger, described here, creates a separate Zapier Task for every order in your store.
On the other hand, the Line Item in an Order trigger is a great way to send every order line item (product) data independently to Zapier, because it creates a separate Zapier Task for every single line item (product) ordered in your store.
See the key differences in this Frequently Asked Questions chapter.
You can choose between the two types of behaviour in your Zap when you are configuring the trigger step. Both triggers support the same set of Trigger Rules, but produce slightly different data fields.
Orders also have one child resources Order Notes that can be accessed in Zapier Integration.
↑ Back to top
A Trigger Rule defines an event (or multiple events) that will cause WooCommerce data to be sent to a Zapier Zap.
The following trigger rules are available to trigger your Zaps when order data in your WooCommerce store is added, changed or deleted.
A note about WooCommerce Subscriptions:
If you are using the WooCommerce Subscriptions extension, these Order trigger rules will also trigger for subscription signup and subscription renewal orders.
If you are using a Subscription trigger in another Zap, you may wish to exclude subscription signups and renewals from your order Zap by using the following setup:
Zap Step 1: Use the Order trigger and your desired trigger rule (e.g. Order paid).
Zap Step 2: A WooCommerce Find Product action:
Product ID equals 1. Line Items Product ID (the product ID from step 1)
The above setup will ensure that your order Zap only triggers when a non-subscription product is purchased.
Order created
Triggers when an order is created.
The Order created trigger rule will trigger for every order received (both paid and unpaid).
If you would like to trigger your Zap only when you receive a paid order, then consider using the Order paid trigger rule instead.
Order deleted
Triggers when an order is deleted (trashed).
Due to limitations in how WooCommerce handles deleted events, only the ID of the deleted resource is sent to Zapier when using this trigger rule. No other data fields are available.
Order paid
This trigger is designed to capture online (instant) payment.
Relationship between order status and paid state: It’s important to remember that the order paid state is not directly tied to a specific order status. While the paid state of an order often corresponds to the Processing or Completed order status, this is not always the case. The order status can be set independently from the paid state.
Real-time payment methods
When an order is paid for through a real-time payment gateway (such as Stripe, PayPal, or most other credit card gateways), WooCommerce can automatically mark the order as paid and set the order status to Processing or Completed. However, this behaviour depends on the payment gateway’s support.
Offline (deferred) payment methods
The Order paid trigger rule will not fire for offline (deferred) payment methods such as Direct Bank Transfer (BACS), Check/Cheque, or Cash on Delivery (COD).
If you are using an offline (deferred) payment method and want to trigger actions based on the payment status, you have several choices:
Use the Order created trigger rule, which will trigger for both paid and unpaid orders.
Use an Order status changed trigger rule, such as Order status changed to Processing or Order status changed to Completed, depending on your specific requirements.
Order restored
Triggers when an already trashed order is restored from the trash.
Order status changed
Order statuses are an important part of the order processing and fulfilment flow in WooCommerce. The following diagram shows the typical order status life cycle in WooCommerce:
Typical WooCommerce Order Status Lifecycle
More details on the order status life cycle in WooCommerce can be found in the WooCommerce documentation.
The Order status changed (any status) trigger rule will trigger every time an order changes status to any status, including when an order is first created.
If you are interested in specific status change(s) only, you may wish to use a more specific Order status changed to … trigger rule.
Below is a full list of Order status changed trigger rules:
Order status changed (any status)
Order status changed to Cancelled
Order status changed to Completed
Order status changed to Failed
Order status changed to On hold
Order status changed to Processing
Order status changed to Refunded
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce version 2.4 renamed Order status changed to Order status changed (any status) to make it more clear that this trigger rule will trigger for any status change.
Order updated
Triggers when an order is updated/edited/changed/modified, including when an order is refunded.
↑ Back to top
An action is an event a Zap performs after it is triggered. Actions allow you to create new or update existing WooCommerce data from a Zap.
Searches let you find existing WooCommerce data in a Zap, and then use it later in a subsequent step.
Line-Item Enabled Data Fields: Coupon Lines, Fee Lines, Line Items, Meta Data, Shipping Lines, Refunds: To specify multiple values for these field(s), the values must be sent in a line-item aware format. Please see here for details on how the Line Itemizer can be used to achieve this.
The following actions are available for use in your Zaps to create, update or find orders:
Create Order
Creates a new Order in WooCommerce.
Product Stock Quantity does not get reduced by default:
If WooCommerce manages product inventory, creating an order via Zapier does not automatically reduce the stock quantity of the product(s) in the order.
To adjust the stock quantities manually, you may wish to add the following steps to your Zap after the Create Order step:
Add a Looping by Zapier step to loop over each Line Item from the Order step.
Add an Update Product Stock Quantity step to “Reduce Stock Quantity By” the total quantity of each Line Item in the order.

Manual Update
boolean
Set the action as manual so that the order note registers as “added by user”.
Update Order
Updates (modifies) an existing Order in WooCommerce.
An update action always requires a valid top-level ID to be specified. This ensures that your Zap knows which record to update. On the other hand, any non-top-level ID is optional. If you leave it empty, WooCommerce will create a new entry, such as a new Meta Data item.
To help identify the correct Resource ID, you can add a Find step before your update step. The result of your Find step will contain the Resource ID, which you can then use in the Update step.
Product Stock Quantity Automatically Changes from WooCommerce 9.1:
When updating an order via Zapier and changing/updating line items, the stock quantity of the products in the order will get updated automatically in WooCommerce version 9.1 and newer.
In version 9.0 and older, the stock quantity of the products in the order won’t be changed automatically.

Data Fields May Differ in Your WooCommerce Store:
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce utilises WooCommerce’s REST API. Data field names, descriptions, and values can vary from one WooCommerce store to another.
Your store’s data, fields, and trigger rules may differ from this documentation due to any of the following:
WordPress versions and the locale/language used.
Your WooCommerce versions and the features enabled.
Your active WordPress plugins and WooCommerce extensions.
Any custom code that overrides or changes how the WooCommerce/WordPress REST API operates.
Note: The field definitions are generated using the following settings:
WordPress v6.6 with the en_US locale.
WooCommerce v9.2 with tax and coupon functionality enabled.
The WooCommerce Bookings, WooCommerce Memberships, and WooCommerce Subscriptions plugins were active.
↑ Back to topOrder Notes are the notes attached to individual orders.
They are used to keep track of internal notes, such as order status changes, fulfilment notes, or customer notes such as notes about a customer’s preferences, or order history.
When viewing an existing order in WooCommerce, you can see the order notes in the Order notes section on the right of the screen.
↑ Back to top
A Trigger Rule defines an event (or multiple events) that will cause WooCommerce data to be sent to a Zapier Zap.
The following trigger rules are available to trigger your Zaps when order note data in your WooCommerce store is added or deleted.
Order Note created
Triggers when an order note is added to an order.
The Order Note created trigger rule will trigger for all order notes that are added (both customer notes and private notes).
Order Note deleted
Triggers when an order note is deleted.
Due to limitations in how WooCommerce handles deleted events, only the ID of the deleted resource is sent to Zapier when using this trigger rule. No other data fields are available.
WooCommerce does not allow updating an order note.
An action is an event a Zap performs after it is triggered. Actions allow you to create new WooCommerce data from a Zap.
Searches let you find existing WooCommerce data in a Zap, and then use it later in a subsequent step.
Create Order Note
Creates a new order note in WooCommerce, attached to an existing Order.
When creating an order note, if the Customer Note field is set to True, then the note will be emailed to the customer. If Customer Note is set to False, then the note will be private and only visible to store administrators.

↑ Back to top
You can send Products data to Zapier, or you can create or update products from an external source.
Product Types
WooCommerce comes with multiple types of products out of the box. Please consult the following tables for details.
Extensions can extend available data and introduce other product types. Please see the Plugin Compatibility chapter for details.
In WooCommerce, a product with variable attributes is constructed as multiple interconnected products. The parent product that connects everything and holds shared information, which you can edit in the WooCommerce dashboard, has a variable product type. For each variation, a separate product is created and stored as a product variation. This latter product holds selected attributes for the variable product. For example, an individual product variation has a price, SKU or stock level information for a particular attribute.
In the Zapier interface, you can see IDs of linked variations in the variations field for a variable product. On the other hand, the variable product ID is visible in the parent_id field for a product variation.
Please note, that you can’t edit a variation name directly in the WooCommerce dashboard. Instead, the name is automatically constructed with the used product attributes and the selected values.
Sending or Receiving a Variable Product
Triggers are supported for variable products as well as their product variations. They do not behave differently from any other supported product type.
When using the Product created or Product updated trigger rules with a variable product, every individual variation will be sent as a separate task alongside the parent product task.
Actions are also supported for individual variations. I.e., you can create, update and search for a variable product, as well as its individual product variations.
Variable Products as Order Line Item
In Order Triggers, when a line item represents a variable product, WooCommerce combines field data from the parent and the selected variation. While the line_items —> product_id (and some other field sources) are the variable product, most of the information is selected from the used product variation. For example, the actual used product ID is visible in the line_items —> variation_id.
For Order Actions or Searches, you can add a variable product to an order as long you know the ID or SKU of a variation and the product already exists in your WooCommerce store.
If you want to use Zapier to create an order in WooCommerce for a variable product, consider using the individual variation’s SKU rather than variation ID.
↑ Back to top
A Trigger Rule defines an event (or multiple events) that will cause WooCommerce data to be sent to a Zapier Zap.
The following trigger rules are available to trigger your Zaps when product data in your WooCommerce store is added, changed or deleted.
Product created
Triggers when a product is created.
Triggers for every individual product variation in a variable product, and the parent product as well.
Product deleted
Triggers when a product is deleted (trashed).
Due to limitations in how WooCommerce handles deleted events, only the ID of the deleted resource is sent to Zapier when using this trigger rule. No other data fields are available.
Product restored
Triggers when an already trashed product is restored from the trash.
Product stock low
Triggers when an existing product or product variation’s stock quantity reaches the low stock threshold.
Tip: Configuring the low stock threshold:
The default low stock threshold for your store can be configured in WooCommerce —> Settings —> Products —> Inventory then entering a value in the Low stock threshold field.
The low stock threshold can also be configured on a per-product basis by editing the product in WooCommerce, and then:
For regular products, go to the Product Data —> Inventory —> Low stock threshold field and enter a value in the Low stock threshold field and save the product.
For individual variations, go to the Product Data —> Variations tab and for each variation enter a value in the Low stock threshold field and save each variation.
Product stock status changed
Product stock statuses in WooCommerce are an important aspect of product management in WooCommerce.
The standard product stock statuses in WooCommerce are:
In stock
On backorder
Out of stock
If your product has stock management enabled, then the stock status of your product will change automatically based on the stock quantity of your product.
Below is a full list of Product stock status changed trigger rules:
Product stock status changed (any status)
Product stock status changed to in stock
Product stock status changed to on backorder
Product stock status changed to out of stock
The Product stock status changed (any status) trigger rule will trigger every time an existing product changes status to any status.
If you are interested in specific product stock status change(s) only, you may wish to use a more specific Product stock changed to … trigger rule.
Product updated
Triggers when a product is updated/edited/changed/modified.
Triggers for every individual product variation in a variable product, and the parent product as well.
↑ Back to top
An action is an event a Zap performs after it is triggered. Actions allow you to create new or update existing WooCommerce data from a Zap.
Searches let you find existing WooCommerce data in a Zap, and then use it later in a subsequent step.
The following actions are available for use in your Zaps to create, update or find products.
Line-Item Enabled Data Fields: Downloads, Categories, Images, Attributes, Meta Data: To specify multiple values for these field(s), the values must be sent in a line-item aware format. Please see here for details on how the Line Itemizer can be used to achieve this.
Create Product
Creates a new product or product variation in WooCommerce.
Creating a Variable Product
To create a variable product, set Type to variable or variable-subscription3, and specify one or more product Attributes with Variation set to true.
For example, to create a variable product with a custom Size attribute, you would specify something like the following:
Type: variable
Attributes —> Name: Size
Attributes —> Variation: true
Attributes —> Options: Small, Medium, Large
If you already have a store-wide global attribute named Size, you can use that instead of creating a new custom attribute:
Type: variable
Attributes —> Name: pa_size (or whatever the slug of the global attribute is)
Attributes —> Variation: true
Attributes —> Options: Small, Medium, Large
Once the Create Product action has been run, you can then create product variation(s) using a subsequent Create Product action(s).
Creating a Variation
To create a product variation, you must already have its parent Variable Product or Variable Subscription Product3 created.
In the Create Product step, set Type to variation or subscription_variation3, and then in the Parent Id field, enter the ID of the parent variable product that the variation should belong to:
Type: variation
Parent Id —> 123 (where 123 is the ID of the parent variable product)
Attributes —> Name: Size
Attributes —> Option: Small
The above example will create a new variation with a Size of Small.

Update Product
Updates (modifies) an existing product or production variation in WooCommerce.
This action lets you change almost any aspect of an existing product. See the Update Product Data Fields section for a full list of fields that can be updated.
If you would like to update the product’s pricing or stock quantity, we recommend using the dedicated Update Product Price or Update Product Stock Quantity actions instead. These separate actions also support relative price and stock quantity adjustments.
An update action always requires a valid top-level ID to be specified. This ensures that your Zap knows which record to update. On the other hand, any non-top-level ID is optional. If you leave it empty, WooCommerce will create a new entry, such as a new Meta Data item.
To help identify the correct Resource ID, you can add a Find step before your update step. The result of your Find step will contain the Resource ID, which you can then use in the Update step.
Attributes and Images:
When updating, you must specify all or none of the Attributes or Images fields. If any data is present inside Attributes or Images, it will override existing data.
For example, if you want to add an image, you must specify all existing images and the new one. Or if you want to remove an attribute, you must specify all the attributes you want to keep and leave out the ones you want to remove.
Updating a Product Variation
To update a product variation, set the ID field to the individual variation’s ID.

Update Product Price
Modifies an existing product or product variation’s regular price or sale price in WooCommerce.
This action targets a specific product or product variation by SKU or ID. It also supports the calculation of new (relative) prices by increasing or decreasing the prices by the specified amount or percentage.
It also allows users to set a product’s sale price relative to the product’s regular price.
You can use ID or SKU to identify a which existing product to update in this action.
The following adjustment types are available for use in this action:
Set Regular Price To
Increase Regular Price By (fixed amount or percentage)
Decrease Regular Price By (fixed amount or percentage)
Set Sale Price To
Increase Sale Price By (fixed amount or percentage)
Decrease Sale Price By (fixed amount or percentage)
Set Sale Price to Regular Price Decreased By (fixed amount or percentage)
Modifies an existing product or product variation’s stock quantity in WooCommerce.
This action targets a specific product or product variation by SKU or ID. It also supports the calculation of new (relative) stock quantity by increasing or reducing the current stock quantity by the specified amount.
You can use ID or SKU to identify a which existing product to update in this action.
The following adjustment types are available for use in this action:
Set Stock Quantity To
Increase Stock Quantity By
Reduce Stock Quantity By
This action returns a subset of the product data fields. See the Update Product Stock Quantity Data Fields section for more information.
When this action runs, it will automatically set the relevant product’s Stock Status to In Stock or Out of Stock depending on the new stock quantity. If the product has backorders enabled, then the Stock Status will be set to On Backorder when the quantity goes to zero or negative
Searches for an existing product or product variation in WooCommerce. Optionally create one if none are found.
All available search fields can be viewed here. We recommend using the following search fields:
SKU: Searches for the specified product SKU.
Product ID: Searches for the specified (numeric) product or variation ID.
Search: Searches the Product Name and Product Description fields for the specified string/term/phrase.
By default, a Find Product step will search across all product types, including product variations. If you only want to find top-level products (i.e. not variations), then you can use the Parent Id search field and set it to 0 (zero).
Please see here for some suggestions on how to find WooCommerce products from WooCommerce Order Line Items.
Searches return the first result found:
Each search has a default sort order, so when defining your Search step, you can use the Order and Orderby fields to choose (for example) whether the most recent result or the oldest result is returned from your search.

Data Fields May Differ in Your WooCommerce Store:
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce utilises WooCommerce’s REST API. Data field names, descriptions, and values can vary from one WooCommerce store to another.
Your store’s data, fields, and trigger rules may differ from this documentation due to any of the following:
WordPress versions and the locale/language used.
Your WooCommerce versions and the features enabled.
Your active WordPress plugins and WooCommerce extensions.
Any custom code that overrides or changes how the WooCommerce/WordPress REST API operates.
Note: The field definitions are generated using the following settings:
WordPress v6.6 with the en_US locale.
WooCommerce v9.2 with tax and coupon functionality enabled.
The WooCommerce Bookings, WooCommerce Memberships, and WooCommerce Subscriptions plugins were active.
↑ Back to top
The Customer resource represents a buyer who registers to your site.
A Customer in WooCommerce is someone with a user account to log in to your store. People purchasing as a guest (without logging into an account) are not considered customers. WooCommerce by default configured to allow customers to create an account. If you are relying on this resource, you can enforce registration by disabling Guest Checkout.
WooCommerce stores customer data alongside WordPress user data. If you customise WordPress Roles and Capabilities feature, make sure to not rename the Customer role, it may interfere with the plugin functionality.
↑ Back to top
A Trigger Rule defines an event (or multiple events) that will cause WooCommerce data to be sent to a Zapier Zap.
The following trigger rules are available to trigger your Zaps when customer data in your WooCommerce store is added, changed or deleted.
Customer created
Triggers when:
a customer registers (creates an account) in your WooCommerce store.
a WordPress user account (with any role) is created.
This trigger rule does not trigger when someone purchases as a guest without registering for an account. Please use one of the Order trigger rules if you would like guest purchases to be sent to Zapier.
Customer deleted
Triggers when a customer is deleted.
Due to limitations in how WooCommerce handles deleted events, only the ID of the deleted resource is sent to Zapier when using this trigger rule. No other data fields are available.
There is no trash functionality for customers (users) in WordPress
Customer updated
Triggers when a customer (or any WordPress user) is updated, edited, changed, or modified.
↑ Back to top
The following actions are available for use in your Zaps to create, update or find customers.
Line-Item Enabled Data Field: Meta Data: To specify multiple values for these field(s), the values must be sent in a line-item aware format. Please see here for details on how the Line Itemizer can be used to achieve this.

Update Customer
Updates (modifies) an existing Customer in WooCommerce.
An update action always requires a valid top-level ID to be specified. This ensures that your Zap knows which record to update. On the other hand, any non-top-level ID is optional. If you leave it empty, WooCommerce will create a new entry, such as a new Meta Data item.
To help identify the correct Resource ID, you can add a Find step before your update step. The result of your Find step will contain the Resource ID, which you can then use in the Update step.

Email: Searches for the specified customer email address.
Search: Searches the Customer Username, Customer Email, Customer URL, Customer Display Name fields for the specified string/term/phrase.
Customer ID: Searches for the specified (numeric) customer ID.
The default search behaviour when searching for Customers is to limit the search to users with the “Customer” Role. However, if you want to broaden the result, please select another item in the dropdown. For example, you can choose “All” to search for every user of the WooCommerce store, including administrators.
Consult the search fields table for available Roles.
WordPress Multisite:
If you are using the Create WooCommerce Customer if it doesn’t exist yet option in your Find Customer Zap, and you are also using WordPress multisite, please read the following.
The following error can occur if an email address exists in your multisite network, but isn’t assigned as a customer on an individual site in your network:
Communication error. 400 Bad Request.
registration-error-email-exists
An account is already registered with your email address. Please log in.
This is a limitation in how Multisite is designed, and how WooCommerce itself is designed to work with multisite.
WordPress Multisite stores user (and thus customer) accounts in one place (network-wide), and is then added to an individual site in your network when required.
If you encounter this error, the workaround is to go to WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Users —> Add New and manually add the user with a Customer role to your sub-site.
Searches return the first result found:
Each search has a default sort order, so when defining your Search step, you can use the Order and Orderby fields to choose (for example) whether the most recent result or the oldest result is returned from your search.

Data Fields May Differ in Your WooCommerce Store:
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce utilises WooCommerce’s REST API. Data field names, descriptions, and values can vary from one WooCommerce store to another.
Your store’s data, fields, and trigger rules may differ from this documentation due to any of the following:
WordPress versions and the locale/language used.
Your WooCommerce versions and the features enabled.
Your active WordPress plugins and WooCommerce extensions.
Any custom code that overrides or changes how the WooCommerce/WordPress REST API operates.
Note: The field definitions are generated using the following settings:
WordPress v6.6 with the en_US locale.
WooCommerce v9.2 with tax and coupon functionality enabled.
The WooCommerce Bookings, WooCommerce Memberships, and WooCommerce Subscriptions plugins were active.

A Trigger Rule defines an event (or multiple events) that will cause WooCommerce data to be sent to a Zapier Zap.
The following trigger rules are available to trigger your Zaps when coupon data in your WooCommerce store is added, changed or deleted.
Coupon created
Triggers when a coupon is created.
Coupon deleted
Triggers when a coupon is deleted (trashed).
Due to limitations in how WooCommerce handles deleted events, only the ID of the deleted resource is sent to Zapier when using this trigger rule. No other data fields are available.
Coupon restored
Triggers when an already trashed coupon is restored from the trash.
Coupon updated
Triggers when a coupon is updated/edited/changed/modified.

The following actions are available for use in your Zaps to create, update or find coupons.
Line-Item Enabled Data Field: Meta Data: To specify multiple values for these field(s), the values must be sent in a line-item aware format. Please see here for details on how the Line Itemizer can be used to achieve this.
Create Coupon
Creates a new Coupon in WooCommerce.
A common use case of this action is to automatically create a unique coupon code for each customer that joins your mailing list.
To achieve this, in your Zap’s Create Coupon action, you would set the Email Restrictions data field to your customer’s email address from the Trigger (step 1) part of your Zap:
When automatically creating Coupons in Zaps, it’s usually best to use simple, unique alphanumeric coupon codes.
You can add a Code by Zapier step to your Zap which automatically generates an alphanumeric coupon code (a-z, 0-9 and hyphens only) based on the customer’s email address:
Input Data:
customer —> User Email Address From Step 1 in Your Zap (or any other uniquely identifiable information such as a customer name).
// Generate an alphanumeric coupon code
// (a-z, 0-9 and hyphens) based on the input.
return { slug: input.customer.replace(/[^A-Za-z0-9-]+/g, "") };
You can then use the result of this Code by Zapier step in your Create Coupon action:
Please see here for some suggestions for using the WooCommerce URL Coupons Extension.

Please see the Products chapter for Simple subscription and Variable subscription information. The availability of data fields and behaviour for the “Variable subscription” product are similar to the WooCommerce built-in variable products. For details, please see the Variable Products chapter.
Subscriptions also have other (child) resources Subscription Notes that can be accessed in Zapier Integration:
↑ Back to top
The following trigger rules are available to trigger your Zaps when subscription data in your WooCommerce store is added, changed or deleted.
Subscription created
Triggers when a subscription is created.
The Subscription created trigger rule will trigger for every new subscription (both paid and unpaid).
See the tip below if you would like to perform a Zap for successful (paid) subscriptions only.
How to trigger paid subscription signups only:
If you would like to trigger your Zap only when a paid subscription is created, you can use the following Zap setup:
Zap Step 1: Use the Subscription status changed to Active trigger rule.
Zap Step 2: A WooCommerce Find Order step:
Order ID equals 1. Parent ID (the subscriptions’ Parent ID)
This will find the order that created the subscription.
Zap Step 3: A Formatter by Zapier step, with the Date / Time Event and Compare Dates Transform:
Start Date equals 2. Date Created (the order’s Date Created from Step 2)
End Date Value equals 1. Subscription Date Paid (the Subscription Date Paid from Step 1)
This will calculate the number of days between the original order date and the subscription date paid.
The above setup should mean that the Zap only triggers when a subscription is first paid for. It should filter out subsequent subscription renewals, which also change a subscription’s status to Active.
This setup works because the date_paid subscription field changes to a new date every time the subscription renews, so steps 2 to 4 in the above Zap setup should mean that the Zap only continues for the initial payment (when the Subscription first changes status to active).
Subscription deleted
Triggers when a subscription is deleted (trashed).
Due to limitations in how WooCommerce handles deleted events, only the ID of the deleted resource is sent to Zapier when using this trigger rule. No other data fields are available.
Subscription renewal failed
Triggers when a subscription has just had a renewal payment fail.
This is not triggered for failed payments on the initial order or a switch order. It is only triggered for failed payments on renewal orders.
Subscription renewed
Triggers when a subscription renewal payment is completed successfully. It is triggered for both automatic and manual renewal payments.
This is not triggered for payments on the initial order or a switch order. It is only triggered for successful payments on renewal orders.
Subscription status changed
Subscription statuses are an important part of the subscription processing and fulfilment flow in WooCommerce.
A subscription’s status can be changed by a store owner, subscriber or an automatically scheduled events, like renewals or expiration.
More details on the subscription status life cycle in WooCommerce can be found in the Subscription Status Guide documentation.
The Subscription status changed (any status) trigger rule will trigger every time a subscription changes status to any status, including when a subscription is first created. It will always be triggered on status changes, regardless of what initiated the status change.
If you are interested in specific status change(s) only, you may wish to use a more specific Subscription status changed to … trigger rule.
Below is a full list of Subscription status changed trigger rules:
Subscription status changed (any status)
Subscription status changed to Active
Subscription status changed to Cancelled
Subscription status changed to Expired
Subscription status changed to On hold
Subscription status changed to Pending Cancellation
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce version 2.4.0 renamed Subscription status changed to Subscription status changed (any status) to make it more clear that this trigger rule will trigger for any status change.
Subscription switched
Triggers when a user upgrades or downgrades their subscription from the My Account page.
Triggered when the switch order status changes to processing or completed and runs after all the switching and updating has happened.
Subscription updated
Triggers when a subscription is updated, edited, changed, modified, renewed, or failed, including any status change.

Update Subscription
Updates (modifies) an existing Subscription in WooCommerce.
An update action always requires a valid top-level ID to be specified. This ensures that your Zap knows which record to update. On the other hand, any non-top-level ID is optional. If you leave it empty, WooCommerce will create a new entry, such as a new Meta Data item.
To help identify the correct Resource ID, you can add a Find step before your update step. The result of your Find step will contain the Resource ID, which you can then use in the Update step.

Data Fields May Differ in Your WooCommerce Store:
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce utilises WooCommerce’s REST API. Data field names, descriptions, and values can vary from one WooCommerce store to another.
Your store’s data, fields, and trigger rules may differ from this documentation due to any of the following:
WordPress versions and the locale/language used.
Your WooCommerce versions and the features enabled.
Your active WordPress plugins and WooCommerce extensions.
Any custom code that overrides or changes how the WooCommerce/WordPress REST API operates.
Note: The field definitions are generated using the following settings:
WordPress v6.6 with the en_US locale.
WooCommerce v9.2 with tax and coupon functionality enabled.
The WooCommerce Bookings, WooCommerce Memberships, and WooCommerce Subscriptions plugins were active.

Subscription Notes are the notes attached to individual subscriptions. They behave in the same way as Order Notes.
They are used to keep track of internal notes, such as subscription status changes, fulfilment notes, or customer notes such as notes about a customer’s preferences, or subscription history.
When viewing an existing subscription in WooCommerce, you can see the subscription notes in the Subscription notes section on the right of the screen.
↑ Back to top
A Trigger Rule defines an event (or multiple events) that will cause WooCommerce data to be sent to a Zapier Zap.
The following trigger rules are available to trigger your Zaps when subscription note data in your WooCommerce store is added or deleted.
Subscription Note created
Triggers when a subscription note is added to a subscription.
The Subscription Note created trigger rule will trigger for all subscription notes that are added (both customer notes and private notes).
Subscription Note deleted
Triggers when a subscription note is deleted.
Due to limitations in how WooCommerce handles deleted events, only the ID of the deleted resource is sent to Zapier when using this trigger rule. No other data fields are available.
WooCommerce does not allow updating a subscription note.
An action is an event a Zap performs after it is triggered. Actions allow you to create new WooCommerce data from a Zap.
Searches let you find existing WooCommerce data in a Zap, and then use it later in a subsequent step.
Create Subscription Note
Creates a new subscription note in WooCommerce, attached to an existing Subscription.
When creating a subscription note, if the Customer Note field is set to True, then the note will be emailed to the customer. If Customer Note is set to False, then the note will be private and only visible to store administrators.

The Zapier Integration for WooCommerce user interface is completely redesigned in version 2.
If you are upgrading from version 1, please go to the Plugin Interface Changes chapter to see what’s changed and the Migrating Legacy Feeds chapter for instructions on how to migrate your existing Feeds and Zaps to the new method.
The information below describes the screens and interfaces that you see in your WooCommerce/WordPress dashboard.
↑ Back to top
You can find the Task history in your WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Zapier screen —> Task History tab.
This is the main place to see every incoming and outgoing task/request for Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
This includes any time that your WooCommerce store’s data is sent to one of your Zapier Zaps or any time that Zapier creates or updates data in your WooCommerce store via one of your Zaps.
The Task History screen also supports filtering by status and/or searching task history records. You can filter by status (Successful or Errored), or search Task Messages and Error Codes.
Task Errors
If you see any tasks with an Error status, please consult the Error Codes chapter for further guidance.
↑ Back to top
Every supported Resource screen (except for Customer) has a WooCommerce Zapier History metabox, located at the bottom of the screen when viewing/editing the Resource.
For example, when you are editing an item, you can see the Task History for that particular item.
You can disable (hide) this metabox by clicking the Screen Options button on the top right corner and deselecting the WooCommerce Zapier History under the Boxes section and then applying (saving) the screen options.
There is no dedicated “Customer” screen in WooCommerce. WooCommerce stores customers in the WordPress User screen.
↑ Back to top
You can keep track of the overall status of the Zapier integration by going to the WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Status screen and then scrolling to the WooCommerce Zapier section towards the bottom of the screen. You can see a detailed explanation of each row if you hover over the question mark with your pointer.
This information is also used by Zapier Integration for WooCommerce Support when you contact us.
This is the perfect place to start investigating if you encounter any errors in the plugin. For further reference, please see the Troubleshooting Tips chapter.
↑ Back to top
To see the Zapier integration logs, go to your WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Status screen —> Logs tab and select the newest log whose name starts with woocommerce-zapier. To view the log, you need to press the View button.
This plugin uses WooCommerce’s facilities for logging. For more information on that, please see the Understanding the WooCommerce System Status Report documentation.
The WooCommerce Extension, by default, only logs significant errors that occurred within the plugin. You can enable detailed logging in the Settings Screen.
The log file may be not exist if the plugin recently installed, or there are no recent errors/logs.
↑ Back to top
Location: WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Settings screen —> Zapier tab.
Currently, the only setting available for the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin is to enable or disable the detailed logging.
If you are experiencing a problem with your integration (or technical support asks you to), you can turn on detailed logging with the Enable Detailed Logging checkbox.
See the Logs chapter on how to access and view the Zapier Integration logs.

To create a integration-specific password, go to the WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Users —> Profile screen. Scroll to the Application Passwords section, which is halfway down the screen. It looks like this:
Enter a name into the New Application Password Name input (for example Zapier Integration for WooCommerce) and press the Add New Application Password button.
WordPress generates a randomly chosen application password. Make sure that you save it in a safe location, as WordPress will not display it again.
Once you have created one, the screen should look like this:
You can generate a new one or delete it later independently from your usual WordPress user account password.
You will use this new Application Password when Authenticating Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
Can’t see the Application Passwords settings in WordPress?:
If you are using any other security plugins, review their settings to ensure they haven’t disabled the Application Passwords feature.
↑ Back to top
The following lists consist of various WooCommerce screens, which expose different parts of the inner workings of the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin to the admin interface.
The extension depends on multiple WooCommerce core functionality, including REST API and Action Scheduler.
WooCommerce allows site administrators to inspect and/or modify these, however, in normal use, there should be no need for you to do so because it is managed automatically for you.
The following information is for reference only. Please be aware, that modifying the WooCommerce Extension behaviour manually is unsupported, and may break the Zapier Integration functionality.
REST API
WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Settings screen —> Advanced tab —> REST API
Lists the REST API Keys that allow other applications to authenticate with WooCommerce. You can find the Zapier integration authentication keys here, along with the other manually or automatically generated ones.
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce keys always start with Zapier - API Read/Write text, followed by the creation date. Upon removing a connection in Zapier’s My Apps page, the REST API keys are automatically removed (revoked) from this list as well.
The number of used REST API authentication keys is also displayed on the Status Screen.
The creation dates on the REST API keys screen and the My Apps page may be different. For example, the plugin automatically monitors and revokes duplicated keys for a user if the key is not used for 30 days.
Webhooks
WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Settings screen —> Advanced tab —> Webhooks
For each outgoing connection (Trigger), the plugin creates a webhook in WooCommerce.
These webhooks have the name of WooCommerce Zapier. Webhooks are created automatically when you turn “ON” a Zap, and they are deleted when you turn “OFF” a Zap in the Zapier.com interface.
In normal usage, you should have one active Zapier webhook for each active Zap that has WooCommerce as a trigger.
When a Zap is disabled, either because of a problem occurring or manually, the corresponding WooCommerce webhook will be removed. Upon turning the Zap “ON” again, the corresponding webhook will be created again.
Removing an active webhook stops sending data to Zapier: Please see the Webhook Missing or Disabled chapter in troubleshooting how to fix it.
Action Scheduler
WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Status screen —> Scheduled Actions tab
There are two different types of scheduled actions in the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin: sending data via webhooks and utility tasks.
The webhook-related tasks have a Hook name of woocommerce_deliver_webhook_async and the argument has a related webhook_id. If you notice Pending woocommerce_deliver_webhook_async tasks, this means that data is queued to be sent to Zapier, but hasn’t been sent yet. You can safely click the Run link on each of these to force the data to be sent immediately.
Utility tasks are the wc_zapier_history_cleanup and the wc_zapier_key_cleanup. Both should be in the Pending section all the time, and these should be left as-is. In the Completed section, you can see the previously completed actions.
Available only if you have upgraded to version 2 from the previous 1.x version
Location: WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Zapier screen —> Legacy Feeds tab.
If you have upgraded from the 1.x version, and you haven’t yet migrated your Zaps, you can see all existing Legacy Zapier Feeds. There is no option in version 2 to create a new Zapier Feed, but you can still edit and/or delete your existing one if you need to.
Legacy Feeds and Zaps must be migrated by 14 October 2024:
All Legacy Feeds and Zaps must be migrated to the new WooCommerce app before 14 October 2024.
Any Zaps using the WooCommerce (Legacy) app are no longer supported and stop working after this date.
Please refer to the Migration Guide for details on how to migrate these legacy Zaps.
When you delete your last Legacy Feed and empty the trash, the Legacy Feeds tab will disappear from WooCommerce and will no longer be accessible.

Yes, you can.
You need to install the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin on each of the WooCommerce sites, which typically means purchasing multiple subscriptions for the Zapier Integration so each site can be eligible for updates and support. Each of those sites can be connected to the same Zapier account if you wish.
↑ Back to top
Yes! The Zapier Integration does not distinguish between normal WordPress user passwords and WordPress Application Passwords.
We strongly recommend using a WordPress Application Password, as this maximises compatibility with security plugins and services.
See the Plugin Interface chapter for details on how to set up an application-specific password.
↑ Back to top
Yes, WordPress multisite is supported!
To connect Zapier Integration for WooCommerce to an individual site in a WordPress multisite network, you need to authenticate using a Super Admin user account. You need a separate authentication for each site in your network.
In WordPress Multisite, regular administrators of an individual site can’t edit users (and therefore customers) on the site.
You can use the Application Passwords feature to create a unique password for each site in your multisite network.
An individual WooCommerce Zap can’t be used by multiple individual sites in a multisite network. Instead, you will need separate Zaps for each site. To streamline this process, you can duplicate a Zap once you have created it for the first site. When duplicating, you only need to switch the WooCommerce authentication/account to the other site.
We also suggest setting up a Server Cron Job for each sub-site on your network that uses Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
↑ Back to top
The Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin has full support for handling arrays (lists) of data (such as multiple order line items).
Multiple line items can be used in supported action. For example, you can create an itemised invoice in Quickbooks or Xero with multiple (separate) line items, provided that both Apps support line items.
Alternatively, you can use the Line Item in an Order trigger.
The same is true for all the other “array” type fields. For example in an order the downloadable_files and the notes fields.
Zapier can support line items for specific apps but does not do so by default, so you’ll want to check to see if the action you want to pair with Zapier Integration for WooCommerce has line item support. Most often line item support relates to invoicing and financial apps, but some other apps do have support as well.
Please be careful while setting up the Line Item in an Order trigger. Tasks can be stopped and Zap can be disabled if the order doesn’t have a line item. This typically does not happen on a production site but can be common during development.
Go to Zapier’s My Apps screen, and locate your existing WooCommerce authentication. Click the Reconnect button and re-authenticate with your WooCommerce store’s new URL. This tells Zapier to communicate with your new URL instead of the old one.
Enable all of your corresponding Zaps.
After doing so, we recommend reviewing each WooCommerce Zap and testing it to confirm that it is still functioning as expected.
What Happens if I Change My URL Without Editing the Zaps?:
Change Site Domain:
The site continuously sends data to Zapier.
When you edit a Zap, Zapier encounters an error (due to the old missing URL), and your site stops sending data.
Your site could fail to receive data, and your actions will fail.
Copy the Site to a New URL:
Both the old and new sites send data to Zapier.
Only your old site receives data.
When you edit a Zap, Zapier notifies the old site about the change, but not your new site. As a result, the new site could fail to send data and stop working.

The Subscription resource3 doesn’t natively support accessing a subscription’s meta data.
However, there is a workaround. In your Zap, find the associated order for the subscription, as this order is typically for the initial payment, which often contains the required metadata.
For example:
Step 1. WooCommerce app —> Subscription Resource, and Subscription created Trigger Rule.
Step 2. WooCommerce app —> Find Order action, where the “Order ID” equals the value from the parent_id field from the newly created Subscription in Step 1. This finds the original order for the subscription that was just created.
Your subsequent Zap step(s) can then use the data from the Order step (Step 2), rather than the Subscription step (Step 1).

Yes, the Booking resource supports sending booking data from your store to Zapier. See options in Trigger Rules.
It does not support creating or updating Bookings via Zaps, because WooCommerce Bookings itself does not natively support creating or updating Bookings via their REST API endpoints.
If you would like us to add Booking actions as a feature, please see the Can This Extension Do [feature]? section for how to request it.
↑ Back to top
Yes, the Membership Plan and the User Membership resources2 support sending membership data from your store to Zapier.
It supports creating or updating User Memberships via Zaps, but not for Membership Plans, as WooCommerce Memberships does not natively support creating or updating Membership Plans via their REST API endpoints.
If your idea has already been suggested, please add your vote for it.

By default, the Order Date field is supplied in a universal timestamp format (ISO 8601 as per Zapier’s specification).
If required, the date/time format can be changed in your Zap by adding a Formatter action to your Zap. For further reference, see the Formatter chapter.

The default tax class in English is named “Standard”, and you can add more in the WordPress Dashboard by navigating to Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Settings —> Tax tab —> Additional tax classes field.
When you create, update or search product data, either directly or as part of an order, and you want to specify the tax class, you need to use the “slug” version of the name. This means you need to use a lowercase version of the name with underscores instead of spaces.
For example, “Standard” becomes standard, and “Reduced Rate” becomes reduced_rate.

Zapier Integration for WooCommerce always sends and receives your WooCommerce over an HTTPS encrypted connection, which allows a secure connection between your WooCommerce installation and the Zapier.com service.
Your WooCommerce store requires an SSL certificate for this secure connection to operate. Please see System Requirements for more details.
We also recommend familiarizing yourself with Zapier Legal.
Please see the GDPR Compliance chapter for more information on data privacy.

Authentication dialog window
When you create your first WooCommerce Zap, you will be asked to choose your WooCommerce account.
The authentication process involves the Zapier.com service connecting to your WooCommerce store using your WordPress administrator username and password.
Please ensure you complete the authentication dialog window correctly:
In the WordPress Site Address (URL) field, enter the URL to your WordPress website’s home (front) page. Be sure the URL starts with https:// and does not include the trailing slash.
For example: https://example.com
If in doubt, go to the WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Settings —> General screen and copy the Site Address (URL) field value and paste it into the WordPress Site Address (URL) field in the authentication dialog window.
In the WordPress Username field, enter your administrator username or email address that you use when logging into the WordPress dashboard.
In the WordPress Application Password field, create an Application Password for your WordPress administrator account.
Use a WordPress Application Password for isolation and better compatibility:
Using an application password (rather than your regular password) improves compatibility with security-related plugins and services. Also keeps user and service related access separated. See details in the [Security Plugins](#security-plugins) chapter.
To set up an Application Password, go to **WordPress Dashboard** --> **Side Menu** --> **Users** --> **Profile** screen and press the "Add New Application Password" button. Please [see here for details](#application-passwords).
Can't see the Application Passwords settings in WordPress? Please [see here for suggestions](#application-passwords).
Alternatively, you can use your regular WordPress password.
Click the Yes, Continue to WooCommerce button to complete the process.
Authentication Errors
If you encounter an error whilst authenticating, please make a note of the red error message that you see in the Zapier Authentication popup window, and click on the error message below for the next steps.
Authentication failed: “WooCommerce returned “The username and/or password you supplied is incorrect.”. Error code: “woocommerce_rest_cannot_authorize” on https://example.com.”:
Make sure you’re using the correct username and password. We recommend using a WordPress Application Password if possible. Alternatively you can use the password you use when logging into your WordPress Dashboard).
Authentication failed: “WooCommerce returned “This user does not have the correct permissions.”. Error code: “woocommerce_rest_cannot_authorize” on https://example.com.”:
Your WordPress username and password was accepted when authenticating, however your user account does not have the necessary permissions. Specifically, you do not have permission to read WooCommerce webhooks. Valid for application-specific passwords as well for account passwords, as the Application Passwords feature does not change user permissions.
If you are using any plugins or code that customises user role permissions, ensure that your role can manage WooCommerce webhooks, and has the following capabilities: manage_woocommerce, promote_users, edit_users.
Your website has a security solution or firewall that is blocking authentication attempts. For example, Cloudflare’s Web Application Firewall.
Review suggestions in Hosting Providers related compatibility issues.
Authentication failed: “WooCommerce returned “Sorry, you cannot list resources.”. Error code: “woocommerce_rest_cannot_view” on https://example.com”:
WooCommerce accepted your username and password, however there is an issue authenticating with the WooCommerce REST API.
Authentication failed: “The Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin is missing or WordPress pretty permalinks may not be configured correctly. File Not Found” response received. HTTP status: “404” on https://example.com.”:
A HTTP 404 (File Not Found) error was encountered when authenticating.
Please ensure you complete the authentication dialog window correctly.
Ensure the Site Address (URL) that you entered is correct. It must be the full canonical URL of your WordPress website’s home (front) page, excluding a trailing slash. It should not be the URL to your WooCommerce shop page. If in doubt, go to the WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Settings —> General screen and copy the Site Address (URL) field value and paste it into the Site Address (URL) field in the authentication dialog window.
Ensure you have your WordPress permalink settings other than the default (see the requirements the System Requirements chapter).
Go to your WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Settings —> Permalinks screen and click Save to flush your permalinks.
Authentication failed: “Authentication response starts with a BOM character.”:
At least one file in your WordPress website has a special byte-order mark (BOM) character in it. This causes every request to your website to contain a mostly invisible BOM character at the beginning of every response.
This invalid character doesn’t usually cause an issue for web browsers, however, it does cause an issue for apps (such as Zapier Integration for WooCommerce) that use the WooCommerce REST API for communicating with your website.
In our experience, the most likely cause is that the offending character is at the very beginning (or end) of your wp-config.php file. Or possibly it is at the very beginning and end of a plugin or theme file that you have installed.
This BOM character article has some suggestions on which text editors you can use to help you find this character. It may also be necessary to temporarily switch to a default WordPress theme and deactivate all plugins (except WooCommerce and Zapier Integration for WooCommerce), and then reactivate them one-by-one to determine which one is causing the problem.
These general WordPress/WooCommerce configuration issues need to be solved for Zapier Integration for WooCommerce (and other REST API based integrations) to work correctly.
You can test your site with the W3C Internationalization Checker.
Authentication failed: “Authentication response parse failed.”:
Your WooCommerce store did not respond with valid JSON when authenticating.
Make sure your server/hosting/CDN provider doesn’t block the required API Endpoints.
Authentication failed: “Authentication response is missing required information.”:
Your WooCommerce store isn’t responding as with a valid authentication message.
Make sure you’re communicating to your WooCommerce store via HTTPS, and the URL you enter starts with https://.
If your WooCommerce store does not support HTTPS, please contact your website host or web developer.
Authentication failed: “Sorry, your connection isn’t secure. Please use TLS (HTTPS) to continue.”: – Review the SSL Check Failing information to resolve this issue.
Authentication failed: “Moved Permanently” response received. HTTP status: “301” on https://example.com.”:
A HTTP redirect was encountered when authenticating.
Other redirect error variations:
“Multiple Choices” response received. HTTP status: “300” on https://example.com
“Moved Permanently” response received. HTTP status: “301” on https://example.com
“Found” response received. HTTP status: “302” on https://example.com
“See Other” response received. HTTP status: “303” on https://example.com
“Not Modified” response received. HTTP status: “304” on https://example.com
“Use Proxy” response received. HTTP status: “305” on https://example.com
“Temporary Redirect” response received. HTTP status: “307” on https://example.com
“Permanent Redirect” response received. HTTP status: “308” on https://example.com
Solutions:
Ensure the Site Address (URL) that you entered is correct. It must be the full canonical URL of your WordPress website’s home (front) page, excluding a trailing slash.
Ensure that you don’t have any plugins or custom code that is enforcing a trailing slash on your website URLs.
Check for redirection plugins, including the redirects configured in the redirection plugin.
Authentication failed: “Not Acceptable” response received. HTTP status: “406” on https://example.com.”:
Your website is hosted with WordPress.com, or it is using Jetpack’s WordPress.com Secure Sign On (SSO) feature.
Please follow these instructions to authenticate successfully.
Authentication failed: “Request to /wc-zapier-auth/v1/authenticate failed, reason: read ECONNRESET”:
There is a network-level communication issue between the Zapier service and your website that is preventing the authentication request from succeeding. Specifically, the TCP connection between zapier.com and your website was unexpectedly closed.
The underlying cause of this problem is typically outside of the control of Zapier Integration for WooCommerce, and we, unfortunately, aren’t able to resolve it for you.
Your web host or web server has some kind of firewall or security appliance that is preventing the authentication request from completing.
Contact your web hosting provider and point them to our authentication request documentation so that they can ensure their network and server(s) are not blocking Zapier Integration for WooCommerce authentication requests.
Migrate your website to another hosting provider, wait for the DNS changes to propagate, and then try authenticating again.
An HTTPS/SSL configuration issue exists. Review the SSL Check Failing information to potentially resolve this issue.
Please contact us if you are unable to resolve this issue.
Authentication failed:Â :
If you encounter an empty authentication error message such as the above, enable detailed logging, then re-authenticate.
Review your logs, and if they mention the following two messages:
Then this indicates that your website cannot see or access the expected authentication query parameters. This is often a hosting provider (or server) misconfiguration.
Solutions:
If your website is hosted with WP Engine, please review this information.
Please contact support and be sure to include the red error message and the logged error messages.
If you continue to encounter an authentication or communication error, and you are sure your username and password are correct, then it is likely you have a security-related service or plugin on your website that is preventing Zapier from authenticating with your WooCommerce store. See the Compatibility Issues chapter for more details. If the above suggestions do not resolve your issue, please contact support for further assistance.
Using Detailed Logging to Determine the Reason for an Authentication Failure
If you still are unable to identify the cause of your authentication issues, please try the following:
Enable detailed logging by going to your WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Settings screen —> Zapier tab, and then tick the Enable Detailed Logging checkbox and Save changes.
Return the to Zap Editor on Zapier.com, and try and re-authenticate.
The authentication attempt will likely fail again, however, this time a detailed reason why it failed will be recorded in your WooCommerce logs.
Go to your WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Status screen —> Logs tab and select the newest log whose name starts with woocommerce-zapier. Press the View button.
The log should contain an Authentication attempt failed or Authentication validation failed message, along with a detailed reason that should help you determine the problem.
If you solved the issue, that’s great!
If you’re not able to solve the issue yourself, please contact support and be sure to include the red error message from step 3 and the logged error message from step 6.
You can disable detailed logging once you have finished troubleshooting.

Network-connected devices, configurations or other software can interfere and cause problems with the communication between your store and Zapier.com. Including but not limited are CDNs, Load Balancers, firewalls, or server software, hosting providers or specific configurations.
Ensure you are utilising the Application Password feature for maximum compatibility.
Please see the following resources for possible compatibility issues.
Task errors can occur for a wide variety of reasons, but you can always see the exact reason when you open your task history and look at the error message. Here is an example of a task error:
Click on the relevant error message below to see the most common errors related to the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin and the possible solutions.
Management of Product Prices is not available. Please update the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin to version 2.6 or later.: If you want to use the new Update Product Price action, ensure you are running the latest Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin (version 2.6.0 or newer).
Management of Product Stock Quantities is not available. Please update the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin to version 2.5 or later.: If you want to use the new Update Product Stock Quantity action, ensure you are running the latest Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin (version 2.5.0 or newer).
Bookings are not enabled. Please update the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin to version 2.2 or later and ensure the WooCommerce Bookings plugin is installed and configured correctly.: If you want to use the Bookings Resource, install and activate the WooCommerce Bookings plugin and ensure you are running the latest Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin (version 2.2.0 or newer).
Memberships are not enabled. Please update the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin to version 2.10 or later and ensure the WooCommerce Memberships plugin is installed and configured correctly.: If you want to use the Membership Plan, or User Membership Resources, install and activate the WooCommerce Memberships plugin and ensure you are running the latest Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin (version 2.10.0 or newer).
Coupons are not enabled. Please make sure the feature or plugin is configured correctly on…: Please enable Coupons in the WooCommerce Settings by following those instructions.
Subscriptions are not enabled. Please make sure the feature or plugin is configured correctly on…: If you want to use the Subscription Resource, install and activate the WooCommerce Subscriptions plugin.
Sorry, you cannot view this resource. Error code: woocommerce_rest_cannot_view on…: Your WooCommerce webhook is misconfigured. See here for suggestions.
Create Resource response parse failed.
Update Resource response parse failed.
Search Resource response parse failed.
List Resource response parse failed.:
Your WooCommerce store’s WooCommerce REST API isn’t responding with valid JSON, so your task has been halted.
Once the issue has been resolved, replay your halted task(s).
Hook Resource response parse failed.:
Your WooCommerce store’s webhook mechanism is sending invalid JSON to Zapier, so your task has been errored.
Most of the time when a Zapier task is halted, this is the expected behaviour. For example, if you use a Filter by Zapier step] and the incoming data does not match what your filter criteria.
Another common reason why a task is halted is that WooCommerce cannot perform the specific task on the Resource. Every halted task has a detailed reason that you can refer to on the task details page.
For example for the latter, the task will be halted if you are trying to create a new coupon with a coupon code that already exists:
There are many possible reasons why a Zapier task can’t be completed. The Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin handles these cases for you to prevent introducing a problem in WooCommerce and always provides a detailed explanation on the task details page.
Resource Sent with Wrong Status
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce uses Action Scheduler, which is a WooCommerce core feature that needs to be working correctly for the extension to send data to Zapier.
This means that data is not sent immediately to Zapier. Instead, the data is queued to be sent asynchronously in the background.
This helps ensure that your customers don’t experience a slow checkout process. It also allows the extension to send the data if there is an error communicating with Zapier.
A typical delay is between ten seconds and one minute, but the delay can be much longer in a staging/testing/development environment or sites with extremely low traffic.
If a Resource status changes during scheduling and sending to Zapier, WooCommerce will send the Resource with the new status information to Zapier. Furthermore, if you are using the Order status changed (any status) or the Subscription status changed (any status) trigger rules, in this case, Zapier will receive the same data multiple times.
There is an automatic de-duplication implemented in the Zapier platform, to prevent fire multiple tasks. Please Contact Us if you are experiencing the above problem.
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce uses WooCommerce’s built-in webhook mechanism to send data to Zapier.
Webhook Missing or Disabled
If WooCommerce encounters an error when sending data to Zapier, it will automatically disable the webhook, which stops future data from being sent to that Zap.
Please go to the WooCommerce Webhooks screen, and look for any disabled WooCommerce Zapier webhooks. If you find any, please edit each one and change them to active so the new data can be sent to Zapier.
If a Zapier webhook is missing or has been accidentally deleted, please go to Zapier.com and turn your WooCommerce Zap(s) off and on again, which will recreate the webhook in WooCommerce.
Note: WooCommerce can disable a webhook if it continuously fails to deliver. If a webhook was unexpectedly disabled, please search the Webhook ID in the Failed Tasks in the Action Scheduler to determine the reason.
Webhook Payload Issues
WooCommerce’s webhooks are created automatically by Zapier Integration for WooCommerce, and they are tied to the WordPress user that created them.
If that WordPress user account is deleted, the webhook(s) assigned to that user will stop working.
Similarly, if the WordPress user is still present but their permissions have changed (for example, being changed from an Administrator to a Contributor), the webhook(s) will also stop working.
Both of these cases will result in:
Zapier Tasks stopped with the following error message: Sorry, you cannot view this resource. Error code: woocommerce_rest_cannot_view on https://example.com.
Click on the 3 dots next to your connection(s), then click Reconnect.
Follow the prompts to reauthenticate your WooCommerce.com account. See our Zapier Authentication documentation for more information on how to authenticate.
Repeat the above steps for each WooCommerce connection that you have listed.
Once you have re-authenticated, go to the WooCommerce Zaps screen and turn each of your WooCommerce Zap(s) off and on again. This will recreate each webhook in WooCommerce.
(Optional) You can send any missing data retrospectively. The above error logs will list each Resource ID (such as an Order ID or Product ID) so you know which records to transfer.
If you have a different ERROR message logged or displaying in your Zapier Task History, please Contact Us for further assistance, and include a full copy of your Zapier Integration for WooCommerce Logs.
Action Scheduler
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce uses Action Scheduler, which is a WooCommerce core feature that needs to be working correctly for the extension to send data to Zapier.
This means that data is not sent immediately to Zapier. Instead, the data is queued to be sent asynchronously in the background.
This helps ensure that your customers don’t experience a slow checkout process. It also allows the extension to send the data if there is an error communicating with Zapier.
A typical delay is between ten seconds and one minute, but the delay can be much longer in a staging/testing/development environment or sites with extremely low traffic.
The WooCommerce Action Scheduler facility uses WordPress’ built-in Cron for scheduling. This means it will only work correctly if your WordPress Cron is working correctly and subsequently Zapier Integration for WooCommerce’s ability to send data to Zapier.
Action Scheduler has a dedicated website. Also, you can find further information in this article on how to troubleshoot the Action Scheduler queue or WordPress Cron execution issues.
Pending Tasks
On the Action Scheduler screen, you can check the Pending tasks by clicking on the Pending filter.
Look for tasks with a hook name of woocommerce_deliver_webhook_async. If you have one or more, it means that queued trigger data hasn’t been sent yet.
You can manually run Pending tasks from that screen, but if tasks remain pending, you will need to identify why the Action Scheduler queue isn’t automatically processing tasks. Usually, the origin of the problem is a malfunction in the WordPress Cron system. See the WordPress Cron chapter for more details.
If the problem persists, go to your Logs screen and look for any errors in the recent logs, it may have information that helps identify the problem.
Failed Tasks
To check for Failed tasks, go to your Action Scheduler screen, then click on the Failed filter (if it doesn’t exist, you don’t have failed tasks).
There you can search for your Resource by ID (such as an Order ID or Product ID) to confirm if the Resource was sent to Zapier or not in the first place. Unfortunately, there is no option to resend a failed task. Please see the Transferring Existing Data Using a Zap chapter if you want to send previously failed data.
If the timeout is the reason, this often occurs when Action Scheduler has too many jobs, and the allowed time limit for PHP is not enough. (The default setting is 30 seconds.) To overcome this limitation, you need to modify the PHP max_execution_time settings in your hosting environment. If you can, please set it to at least 120 seconds.
You can tweak the Action Scheduler behaviour further with the Action Scheduler High Volume plugin.
The Action Scheduler High Volume plugin only works correctly if your max_execution_time PHP settings are at least 120 seconds.
If you have failed tasks or the Action Scheduler High Volume plugin can’t solve the issue, please Contact Us and copy the log column and include it when you send a support request.
WordPress Cron
If your data is being sent to Zapier erratically, or if your data is being sent slowly or in a delayed fashion, you may have a problem with the WordPress Cron system. If your WordPress installation’s cron system isn’t working correctly, Zapier Integration for WooCommerce will not work correctly either.
The WP Crontrol plugin can help pinpoint cron issues. First, it tests the WordPress Cron spawner on your site and reports the error message if it fails. Also, you can check it manually by going to the WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Tools —> Cron Events screen and looking for the “Next Run” columns. If the dates are mostly in the past, especially multiple days or more, your WordPress Cron is not working as expected.
Test Your Cron configuration: You can test yourself if the WordPress Cron can run by opening the site WP-Cron endpoint in your browser. For example, https://example.com/wp-cron.php. After that page is loaded, go back and reload the Cron Events screen. If the “Next Run” columns are not changed, your WordPress Installation has a deeper problem. Otherwise, you can use the Server Cron Job or Uptime Services solutions.
Alternate Cron
If your Zaps are receiving an error message such as rest_api_unavailable or The Rest API is unavailable. when WooCommerce data is sent to Zapier, you may affect this known issue with WooCommerce core itself, which causes the rest_api_unavailable error to occur when delivering data via webhooks. This affects Zapier Integration for WooCommerce and any other services that rely on WooCommerce’s webhooks facility.
The problem only occurs when you use WordPress’ ALTERNATE_WP_CRON feature.
Until WooCommerce core fixes the issue in WooCommerce itself, it is necessary to disable ALTERNATE_WP_CRON on your site.
This WordPress article explains where this constant is defined. Therefore, removing that line from your wp-config.php file is necessary.
Server Cron Job
Do not configure a cron job for both Action Scheduler and WordPress Cron.:
If your WordPress Cron is working correctly, you only need to configure the cron job for Action Scheduler.
Otherwise, we recommend configuring for WordPress Cron itself.
This is the recommended approach for reliable and timely delivery of your WooCommerce data to Zapier.
If your server has WP-CLI installed, we suggest setting up a cron job that processes the Action Scheduler/WordPress Cron queue, for example:
cd /path/to/wordpress/ && php wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron
(where /path/to/WordPress/ is the path to your WordPress installation).
If your cron configuration is working as expected, you can disable WordPress’ default WP-Cron behaviour by adding the following line to the wp-config.php file:
define('DISABLE_WP_CRON', true);
Your web host can usually assist with setting up this cron job.
If you are interested, see here for more details on Action Scheduler WP-CLI commands. See here for the WP-CLI cron command.
Using WordPress Multisite:
The above server cron job will execute for your multisite network’s main (primary) site.
To use Zapier Integration for WooCommerce on multiple sites within a multisite network, you will need a separate server cron job for each site (with a different --url= parameter for each). For example:
cd /path/to/wordpress/ && wp --url=example.com/au action-scheduler run
cd /path/to/wordpress/ && wp --url=example.com/uk action-scheduler run
cd /path/to/wordpress/ && wp --url=example.com/us action-scheduler run
cd /path/to/wordpress/ && wp --url=example.com/au cron event run --due-now
cd /path/to/wordpress/ && wp --url=example.com/uk cron event run --due-now
cd /path/to/wordpress/ && wp --url=example.com/us cron event run --due-now
(where example.com is the URL of the individual site running Zapier Integration for WooCommerce, minus the https:// prefix).
If you aren’t sure which values to use for the --url= parameters, please run a wp site list command on your server and use the URL column to determine the URL for each site.
Test Your Cron Job:
We suggest logging into your server via SSH and running them manually to confirm that you have the correct command(s) for your cron job(s).
A working command should output something such as:
If you receive another response such as a `command not found, we suggest contacting your web host to confirm that WP-CLI is installed on your server.
Uptime Services
A less technical solution is to create a free Pingdom or UptimeRobot account and point it to your site’s WP-Cron endpoint. For example, https://example.com/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron.
This should make WordPress Cron fire regularly (from every 30 seconds using Pingdom to every 5 minutes using UptimeRobot).
Using WordPress Multisite:
If you use Zapier Integration for WooCommerce on multiple sites in your multisite network, you will need an uptime check for each wp-cron.php page. For example:
If you are using PayPal payments on your store, please ensure that PayPal Instant Payment Notification (IPN) is properly configured.
Please go to your WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Settings screen —> Payments tab and click on PayPal. Ensure that the Receiver Email setting is correct and matches your PayPal email address.
Alternatively, you can enable Payment Data Transfer (PDT) in your WooCommerce dashboard. The PayPal Standard documentation has a section about how to enable PDT.

The REST API is how Zapier communicates with your WooCommerce store to send and receive data, so your WooCommerce store’s REST API must be operational and working correctly.
We have listed some of the most common error messages that you may encounter when using Zapier Integration for WooCommerce with a WooCommerce store with REST API configuration issues:
Authentication response parse failed.
Authentication response is missing required information.
Create Resource response parse failed
Update Resource response parse failed
Search Resource response parse failed
List Resource response parse failed
Hook Resource response parse failed
WooCommerce returned "..."
WooCommerce returned "There has been a critical error on this website. Learn more about troubleshooting WordPress."
Webhook Subscribe response parse failed.
Webhook Unsubscribe response parse failed.
We’re having trouble loading 'Trigger Rule' data (WooCommerce returned "...".)
We’re having trouble loading 'Trigger Rule' data (This user does not have the correct permissions.)
We’re having trouble loading 'Trigger Rule' data (WooCommerce returned "There has been a critical error on this website. Learn more about troubleshooting WordPress.")
Trigger Rule response parse failed.
Input Fields response parse failed.
WooCommerce REST API
If your WooCommerce REST API is not working correctly, please consult the Getting Started with the REST API guide for details on how to verify that your REST API is working correctly.
To connect Zapier, you don’t need to install an extra REST Auth plugin or manage REST API keys or Webhooks in your store. The integration automatically handles those for you.
Coming Soon or Maintenance Mode
The most common cause is a simple one: your WooCommerce store isn’t publicly accessible because you have a “Coming Soon” or “Maintenance Mode” plugin active. Please try deactivating it, and ensure that people can view/visit your website without needing to log in to WordPress.
Invalid or Untrusted SSL Certificates
Your website must also have a valid and trusted SSL certificate installed for Zapier to communicate with your WooCommerce store.
If you encounter an error message such as certificate verify failed, it usually means that the Zapier service isn’t able to successfully connect to your WooCommerce store because it uses an SSL certificate that was issued from a Certificate Authority that Zapier doesn’t trust.
Please consult this Zapier guide and this Zapier guide for further instructions, and if the problem persists please contact Zapier support for assistance.
Debug Output
WordPress or PHP debug output can render REST API responses invalid, so make sure the WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY constant is set to false in your site’s wp-config.php file:
For the WooCommerce REST API authentication process to work correctly, your website must be configured to use SSL correctly.
If your status screen shows SSL as red (No), then you will be unable to authenticate your WooCommerce store with Zapier:
Often this issue results in one of the following error messages when you authenticate your WooCommerce store with Zapier:
Sorry, your connection isn’t secure. Please use TLS (HTTPS) to continue.
CRITICAL: Authentication validation failed via ping. TLS (HTTPS) required.
To resolve this issue, you will need to contact your web host and let them know that WordPress core’s is_ssl() function is returning false during WooCommerce REST API requests, and ask them to resolve this for you. Often it is an indication that your website’s SSL/HTTPS configuration isn’t correct.
You can also go here and perform an SSL Server Test for your website. This test can often identify common SSL misconfigurations that may need to be fixed by your web hosting provider for Zapier Integration for WooCommerce to work correctly.
WooCommerce REST API Authentication
If you are still receiving the Sorry, you cannot list resources. error message after trying the above steps, then this usually means that WooCommerce’s REST API is unable to authenticate using a standard consumer key and secret, which means that Zapier Integration for WooCommerce is unable to work as expected.
For Zapier Integration for WooCommerce to operate correctly, your website must have a working WooCommerce REST API. This is listed in our System Requirements.
You can check whether your WooCommerce REST API authentication mechanism is working by following this documentation which explains how to create a consumer key and secret, and then test if your REST API is working by querying the https://example.com/wp-json/wc/v3/orders?consumer_key=XXXX&consumer_secret=XXXX endpoint to confirm that it returns an HTTP 200 OK response and not an HTTP 401 Unauthorized response.
If the response is 401, then please review our list of known incompatible and conflicting plugins.
If you are still receiving a 401 response, please use a separate staging/test environment to temporarily switch to a default WordPress theme and deactivate all plugins (except WooCommerce), and then try authenticating to your test environment. If it works, then you can reactivate your plugins one by one to determine which one is causing the authentication problem.
If authentication still isn’t working with only the WooCommerce plugin active, then this indicates that WooCommerce core’s built-in REST API authentication isn’t working as it should. Please log into your WooCommerce.com account and submit a support request to the WooCommerce core support team so that they can investigate and identify why WooCommerce core’s REST API query parameter authentication mechanism isn’t working as expected.
Other Resources to Assist With REST API Issues
Here are some other great resources that may also be helpful:

WooCommerce core contains some optional features that may affect the behaviour of Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
Below is a list of these features and their compatibility with Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
Cart and Checkout Blocks
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce supports the Cart & Checkout Blocks feature.
For the best possible experience, please ensure you are using the latest versions of your WooCommerce plugin and extensions before enabling the new cart/checkout in WooCommerce.
Please consult the Cart & Checkout Blocks documentation for further information.
New Draft Order Status in WooCommerce version 7.6 through 9.1:
WooCommerce’s new Cart and Checkout Blocks results in orders being created with a Draft (checkout-draft) status between WooCommerce version 7.6 and 9.1.
If you are using Order Triggers or Actions, we recommend updating WooCommerce to version 9.2 or later to ensure that your Zaps continue to work as expected.
Coming Soon Mode
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce is fully compatible with the WooCommerce Coming Soon Mode, which was introduced in WooCommerce version 9.1. This feature allows stores to control the visibility of their site and store while it is under construction. Zapier Integration for WooCommerce can seamlessly handle this mode without any issues.
For more information on Coming Soon Mode, please see the Coming Soon Mode documentation.
Coupons
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce is fully compatible with WooCommerce’s Coupon functionality, allowing you to send and receive coupon data through Zaps. However, to ensure proper functionality, the coupon feature must be enabled in WooCommerce for this to work.
To enable coupons in WooCommerce:
Go to WooCommerce → Settings → General.
Scroll down to the Enable Coupons section.
Tick the box next to Enable the use of coupon codes.
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce includes support for WooCommerce’s High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) feature.
For the best possible HPOS experience, please ensure you are using the latest versions of your WooCommerce plugin and extensions before enabling HPOS in WooCommerce.
Legacy Feeds are not compatible with HPOS:
If you are using a Legacy Feed (created before version 2.0), it will not be compatible with HPOS.
You must migrate your Legacy Feeds and Zaps before enabling HPOS in WooCommerce.
Order Attribution
WooCommerce 8.5 introduced an Order Attribution Tracking feature to help store owners understand where their orders are coming from.
This data is included in the Order data sent to Zapier. Please see Order Data Fields documentation for more information.
Stock Management
The default stock management feature for your store can be enabled or disabled in WooCommerce —> Settings —> Products —> Inventory —> Manage stock checkbox. (Enabled by default).
Stock management feature must be enabled for your product(s) as well for the following trigger rules to work:
For regular products, go to Product Data —> Inventory —> Stock management —> then ticking the Track stock quantity for this product and saving the product.
For individual variations, edit the product in WooCommerce, then go to Product Data —> Variations, then edit each variation and tick the Manage stock? checkbox and save each variation.
Tax
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce works whether WooCommerce’s Tax functionality is enabled or disabled.
The tax feature can be enabled and disabled in WooCommerce —> Settings —> General —> Enable tax rates and calculations checkbox (enabled by default).
Once taxes are enabled, Zapier Integration for WooCommerce can send and receive tax-related data in your Zaps. This includes:
Order tax data: You can send tax data with order-related Zaps. Please see Order Data Fields for details.
Product tax settings: You can trigger actions or automate workflows based on specific product tax classes. Please see Product Data Fields for details.
↑ Back to top
With thousands of WooCommerce extensions, addons and plugins available for WooCommerce, and a similar amount of integrations for Zapier, it can be challenging to know if they are compatible with Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
Below is a list of WooCommerce Extensions and plugins that are supported, compatible, or partially compatible with Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
Also, security plugins that may interfere with Zapier Integration for WooCommerce are listed separately.
Non-listed plugins: If a WordPress plugin or Zapier Integration that you are using isn’t listed below, it doesn’t necessarily mean it is or isn’t compatible. You can always purchase the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin and use the 30-day money-back guarantee to try it yourself.
Compatibility with the WooCommerce Memberships plugin was added in version 2.10 of Zapier Integration for WooCommerce. You must be running WooCommerce Memberships version 1.26.0 or later.
If you have WooCommerce Memberships installed, you can use Membership data in your Zaps, including Membership Plan and User Membership.
Compatibility with the WooCommerce Checkout Field Editor plugin was added in version 1.1 of Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
Any additional checkout fields added to your store by the WooCommerce Checkout Field Editor plugin will be sent to Zapier, allowing you to use your custom checkout fields in your Zaps that use any Order trigger events.
You may also wish to view the Checkout Field Editor documentation.
Custom order statuses created with the Order Status Manager extension are supported in the Order data Status field when using Order triggers and actions
However, a dedicated Trigger Rule for Order status changed to … is not available for created custom order statuses.
If you would like to trigger a Zap when an order changes to a custom status, we’d recommend using the Order status changed (any status) trigger rule, which triggers every time an order changes status (including changing to or from a custom order status).
WooCommerce Pre-Orders
Compatibility with the WooCommerce Pre-Orders plugin is included.
You typically need to use the Order status changed (any status) trigger rule, which will fire whenever an order changes status.
You can use this together with a filter to act only when an order changes status to pre-ordered:
See the documentation on filters for more information.
You may also wish to view the WooCommerce Pre-Orders documentation.
Groups for WooCommerce
Whilst we haven’t extensively tested these plugins together, we do know of users who are using them successfully.
If you are encountering memory exhausted errors when using Zapier Integration for WooCommerce and Groups for WooCommerce, please update it to version 1.7.3 which includes a fix that prevents an infinite recursion bug in WooCommerce core.
You may also wish to view the Groups for WooCommerce documentation.
WooCommerce Gravity Forms Add-Ons
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce includes support for the Gravity Forms Add-Ons extension.
The Gravity Forms Add-Ons data is sent to Zapier as part of the line_itemsmeta_data field, allowing it to be used in Zap filters.
Please keep in mind that the Zapier Zap editor won’t be aware of your additional Gravity Forms product fields until an order is placed on your WooCommerce store for that product. After that, you can open the Zap Editor and you should see your Gravity Forms fields along with the standard fields.
URL Coupons
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce lets you create new Coupons in Zaps (using the Create Coupon action).
If you are using the URL Coupons Extension, you can automatically configure the URL Coupons settings (such as Unique URL and Page Redirect) for the coupon when it is created via a Zap:
To achieve this, in your Zap’s Create Coupon action, use the Meta Data List field to add a new the _wc_url_coupons_unique_url metadata record. You would typically set the value of this field to the Slug output from the suggested Code by Zapier step:
Please be sure to read the URL Coupons documentation which describes important things to consider when setting Coupon URLs.
If you would also like to set the Page Redirect attribute for the coupon, you can do so by adding two additional meta data records to your create coupon action:
_wc_url_coupons_redirect_page_type set to page.
_wc_url_coupons_redirect_page set to the page ID of your choice.
The result is a newly created coupon in WooCommerce with all three URL coupon settings automatically configured:
Uncanny Toolkit for LearnDash
Communication with an application-specific password is not affected by this plugin, but the Front End Login feature causes issues when authenticating with the normal WordPress account password.
Please deactivate this feature if you are not authenticated with a WordPress Application password.
Asset CleanUp: Page Speed Booster
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce does not interfere with the Asset CleanUp: Page Speed Booster CSS/JavaScript minifying and combining functionality. However, the Pro version includes an option to turn off plugins on the front-end.
Incompatible configuration: Disabling the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin on the front-end via the Asset CleanUp’s Plugins Manager feature is incompatible. This action will render the plugin inactive, stopping the plugin from working
Borlabs Cache
The Borlabs Cache plugin helps with caching and optimisation, but it can interfere with the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce authentication endpoint. You can still use it safely if you disable caching for this specific endpoint.
Incompatible configuration: You must exclude the authentication endpoint /wc-zapier-auth/v1/authenticate from the cache.
↑ Back to top
To avoid interfering with security plugins in general, please ensure that you are using WordPress Application Passwords to connect your store.
If you have a plugin installed that prevents the connection between Zapier.com and your site, please try temporarily disabling the security plugin(s), authenticating, and then re-enabling the security feature(s) once you have successfully authenticated.
Jetpack
When using Jetpack, the majority of the Jetpack plugin features are compatible with Zapier Integration for WooCommerce. However, there are several areas you need to be aware of to make the two plugins work together.
If you are using the Brute Force Attack Protection (formerly Protect) feature, you need to authenticate Zapier Integration for WooCommerce using an application-specific password. Otherwise, please consult the Jetpack Protect documentation for assistance.
If you are using the WordPress.com Secure Sign On feature, use a WordPress Application Password feature when authenticating. Please see here for details on how to successfully authenticate.
Wordfence Security
Wordfence Security is a very popular security plugin that is commonly used with Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
To successfully authenticate with two-factor authentication enabled, you need to use a WordPress Application Password (not your regular WordPress password) when authenticating.
You may still experience difficulties authenticating if you are using Wordfence’s Brute Force Protection.
Moreover, you may need to whitelist the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce REST API endpoints. You can find the list of the plugin endpoints inside our Developer Documentation.
To see if Wordfence is interfering with the communication, please go to WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Wordfence —> Tools —> Live Traffic and review the live traffic logs to identify the specific reason for the failure.
For busy stores, you may need to use the Show Advanced Filters —> User Agent = Zapier option to only see Zapier authentication logs.
Incompatible configuration: Ensure that the WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Wordfence —> All Options —> Disable WordPress application passwords checkbox is not ticked (i.e., application passwords need to be enabled and not disabled).
Solid Security
Solid Security (formerly iThemes Security) does not interfere with Zapier Integration for WooCommerce if you are using a WordPress Application Password.
Alternatively, with older WordPress versions, Solid Security has its own application-specific password solution, so when authenticating, please ensure that you use that application-specific password rather than your account password.
WP Rocket
This plugin has a feature that forces trailing slash for any URLs, which is not compatible with the authentication mechanism in Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
To avoid problems with it, please the remove trailing slash functionality or disable it for the Integration endpoints. Refer to the WP Rocket Documentation for how to do this.
JWT Auth
The JWT Auth plugin forces its authentication method to all REST API requests (including Zapier Integration for WooCommerce). This interferes with the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce’s Actions functionality. It also prevents Trigger sample data from working.
The solution is to add Zapier Integration for WooCommerce’s endpoints to the JWT Auth plugin’s whitelist so that JWT authentication is not applied to Zapier Integration for WooCommerce’s endpoints.
The Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin is generally compatible with most security plugins that enforce two-factor authentication (2FA), provided that you are using the WordPress Application Password feature. Please use an application-specific password if you encounter a problem.
Alternatively, consult the security plugin’s documentation as they may have their own application-specific password feature, and use that when authenticating WooCommerce with Zapier.
Please see the Security Plugins chapter for a list of known compatibility statuses.
Other Security Plugins
The following plugins can cause authentication errors when connecting with a WordPress account password:
If you are using Jetpack’s WordPress.com Secure Sign On feature, you will likely be logging in to your website’s dashboard using your WordPress.com email address and password.
To successfully authenticate Zapier with your WooCommerce store, you need to use an Application Password:
Log into WordPress.com.
Switch to your site in the side menu.
Go to the Side Menu —> Jetpack —> Dashboard, and click the Settings button in the top right corner.
Inspect the status of the Allow users to log in to this site using WordPress.com accounts toggle.
If the toggle is
Off: you can navigate WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Users —> Profile page.
On: you need to manually type https://<YOUR SITE NAME>/wp-admin/profile.php URL in your browser. Use your site URL, not wordpress.com to access your WordPress profile page.
Note your Username, as you need to use this username when authenticating later.
Return to Zapier.com and authenticate again, but instead of using your wordpress.com credentials, you will use:
Your username from step 6 above.
Your password from step 7 above.
You will continue to log into your WordPress Dashboard (wp-admin) using your WordPress.com email address and password, but whenever you authenticate your WooCommerce store with Zapier, you will use your application-specific password or WordPress username/password from the above steps.
WP Engine
If your website is hosted with WP Engine, you may encounter issues with the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce authentication process.
You must ensure that WP Engine’s Redirect Bots feature is disabled so the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce authentication process works correctly.
↑ Back to top
Below is a list of plugins that are partially compatible with Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
WooCommerce Product Add-Ons
Zapier Integration for WooCommerce includes support for the Product Add-Ons extension.
The Product Add-Ons data is sent to Zapier as part of the line_items and meta_data fields, allowing them to be used in Zap filters.
We don’t recommend using the Product Add-Ons data in Zap templates unless all of your products have the same add-on fields available. This is because a Zap requires a predictable set of data fields coming through for every order line item.
Potential incompatibility: The Product Add-Ons extension stores addon price information in the meta key field, which can result in a different key value from order to order, making the key name unpredictable and difficult to use in Zap actions.
WooCommerce Deposits
The WooCommerce Deposits extension can cause problems when retrieving sample order data from WooCommerce when using the Zapier.com Zap editor.
This is because WooCommerce Deposits creates future-dated orders that have a status of scheduled-payment, so when Zapier Integration for WooCommerce loads the most recent orders to display as sample data, the future-dated scheduled-payment orders are listed first.
This makes it difficult to display useful orders in the Zap editor when setting up your Zap.
The workaround is to temporarily trash these Scheduled Payment orders, set up your Zap, and then restore the orders:
Go to the WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Orders screen, then filter by Scheduled.
Select all the Scheduled orders, then Bulk actions —> Move to Trash.
Return to the Zapier.com Zap Editor, then in your Trigger step, click Test Trigger, then click the Dropdown list and click the Load More button to retrieve your most recent order data from your store. This sample data should now contain recent valid orders (rather than future-dated scheduled payment orders).
Select a recent order from the dropdown, then complete the setup of your Zap and turn it on.
Return to WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> WooCommerce —> Orders, filter by Trashed.
Select all trashed orders, then Bulk actions —> Restore to reinstate the Scheduled Payment orders.
Fancy Product Designer
Some Zapier Integration for WooCommerce users have reported success when using the Fancy Product Designer plugin, whereas others have encountered issues.
The Fancy Product Designer data is sent to Zapier as part of the line_items —> meta_data fields, allowing them to be used in Zaps.
Potential incompatibility:
This plugin is prone to storing vast amounts of information, which can lead to the data exceeding the current limitation of the Zapier platform (6MB) for Order or Product triggers. When this happens, you may be unable to create a Zap or the corresponding task will fail.
One possible solution for preventing this from happening is filtering out the outgoing data in WooCommerce, as described in the Modifying or Extending Data and Fields chapter.
WooCommerce Composite Products
The WooCommerce Composite Products extension can cause Zapier Integration for WooCommerce Create Product actions to fail with the following error message:
Configuration (composite_scenarios__configuration) is missing.
To resolve this, please update Composite Products to version 8.1.1 (or newer).
Potential incompatibility: It is not possible to create Composite Products via a Create Product action.
↑ Back to top
Below is a list of plugins that are not currently compatible with Zapier Integration for WooCommerce.
WP-SpamShield
The WP-SpamShield plugin is known to cause issues when authenticating.
Having this plugin active may cause you to receive either of the following error messages:
Sorry, this user does not have the correct permissions.
ERROR: Sorry, there was an error. Please be sure JavaScript and Cookies are enabled in your browser and try again.
Please deactivate the plugin and try again.
WP Content Copy Protection & No Right Click
This plugin is known to cause issues when authenticating.
Please deactivate the plugin and try again.
WooCommerce Real-time Notifications for new orders
This plugin is known to cause issues when authenticating, with the following error message:

You can typically achieve General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance whilst using Zapier Integration for WooCommerce, and we have provided some information below to help get you started.
Zapier Integration consists of a WooCommerce plugin (installed on your website) and a Zapier App (hosted on Zapier.com), working together to connect WooCommerce to Zapier and Zapier to WooCommerce.
↑ Back to top
The Zapier Integration is a WordPress plugin, and to operate needs WordPress WooCommerce to be installed.
If you need GDPR compliance, you can usually achieve it with your WordPress installation. For reference see the Your WordPress.com Site and the GDPR page in wordpress.com, which can be adapted to self-hosted WordPress sites as well.
↑ Back to top
Here is WooCommerce site and data security FAQ for related settings, and you can read the compliance in their blog post.
We provide a snippet about the integration and Zapier service, that you can include in your privacy policy page. Go to your WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Settings —> Privacy screen, and follow the Check out our guide link to access it.
↑ Back to top
You will also need to consider the GDPR implications of the third-party services that you use in your Zaps, as these may handle customer data and will need to be evaluated carefully.
The sole purpose of the Zapier Integration is to transfer data between services.
↑ Back to top
Please note that the above suggestions are not legal advice, and we strongly recommend consulting with a GDPR expert to help ensure that your store and business are GDPR compliant.
↑ Back to top
Deactivating the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin will prevent all existing WooCommerce Zaps from working. Your WooCommerce store will no longer send data to Zapier and will be unable to process incoming connections from your Zaps.
Your existing Zap(s) stay intact, however they will not work anymore. All of your WooCommerce Triggers will not produce any new tasks, and all of your Actions will return an error the next time a Zapier task is performed.
↑ Back to top
The default behaviour for uninstalling (deactivating and deleting) the plugin is to keep your Zapier Integration for WooCommerce data in the WooCommerce store.
If you like, you can delete and reinstall the WooCommerce Extension many times. Your Zapier Integration for WooCommerce settings and data will not be lost. This is especially helpful while troubleshooting your WooCommerce store.
If you decide to uninstall the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin and you don’t plan to use it anymore, the recommended order of action is to go to Zapier.com and delete all WooCommerce Zaps in Zapier first and then uninstall the plugin. Also, you can permanently remove all Zapier Integration for WooCommerce data from WooCommerce too (see below).
Remove All Data
If you want, you can completely remove all Zapier Integration for WooCommerce data during uninstall. This includes settings, Task History, scheduled action(s), Zapier Webhook(s) and REST API Authentication key(s).
To permanently delete all plugin data upon uninstall, you need to add the following line to your wp-config.php file:
define("WC_ZAPIER_REMOVE_ALL_DATA", true);
After you have done this, go to your WordPress Dashboard —> Side Menu —> Plugins screen and deactivate and delete the Zapier Integration for WooCommerce plugin.
Once done, you can remove the WC_ZAPIER_REMOVE_ALL_DATA line from your wp-config.php file.
Refer to WordPress’ Editing wp-config.php documentation for further information on how to edit your config.
If you’re using the Application Passwords feature, you need to manually delete passwords created for Zapier communication. Please see in the Plugin Interface chapter where to find it.
Uninstalling the WooCommerce Extension will not remove your Zaps and data on Zapier, even if you choose to delete all data from WooCommerce.
App-specific password feature built-in to WordPress.

If the issue persists, consult the Zapier Service Outages documentation for additional troubleshooting steps and guidance on resolving Zapier.com-related issues.
order_invalid_parent_id
The order_invalid_parent_id error occurs when attempting to create or update an order in WooCommerce, and the specified parent order ID is either invalid or does not exist. This error indicates that the provided parent order ID does not correspond to a valid order in your WooCommerce store.
There are a few potential causes for this error:
Incorrect parent order Id: The most common cause is providing an incorrect parent order ID. Double-check that the ID you are using matches an existing WooCommerce order.
Deleted parent order: If the parent order was previously deleted from your WooCommerce store, attempting to reference it will result in this error. Ensure that the parent order you are trying to use has not been removed.
Incorrect store or environment: If you are using multiple WooCommerce stores or environments (e.g., staging, production), make sure you are using the correct parent order ID for the corresponding store or environment.
Troubleshooting
To resolve the order_invalid_parent_id error, follow these steps:
Verify that the Parent ID field is set to the correct ID of an existing WooCommerce order.
Check your WooCommerce store’s orders to confirm that the parent order you are trying to use exists and has not been deleted.
If you are using multiple stores or environments, ensure that you are using the correct parent order ID for the intended store or environment.
rest_invalid_param
The rest_invalid_param error occurs when a request to the API contains an invalid parameter. This error indicates that one or more parameters provided in the request are either missing, have an incorrect format, or contain invalid values.
View the Task History record that has the Error status, and more details about the error will be available in the Message column.
Troubleshooting
To resolve the rest_invalid_param error, follow these steps:
Check the error message to identify which fields are causing the issue.
Examine your Zapier Integration for WooCommerce logs and your WordPress and server error logs for any additional information or context related to the error. Look for specific details about the invalid parameter and the surrounding circumstances.
If you use custom code or plugins that interact with the WordPress REST API, review the code to ensure that it is correctly constructing the requests and handling any error responses appropriately.
rest_missing_callback_param
The rest_missing_callback_param error occurs when a required field is missing from the data sent to WooCommerce. This error indicates that the request is incomplete and cannot be processed due to the absence of one or more mandatory parameters.
Common error messages associated with this error code include:
“Error creating Customer via Create Customer action. Missing parameter(s): email”
“Error creating Order Note via Create Order Note action. Missing parameter(s): order_id, note”
“Error creating User Membership via Create User Membership action. Missing parameter(s): customer_id, plan_id”
The error typically occurs when all the required fields in the Create action step are not populated. Required fields are usually marked with an asterisk (*) or described as mandatory in the action’s documentation. Required fields are sometimes dynamically determined based on the provided data.
Troubleshooting
To resolve the rest_missing_callback_param error, follow these steps:
View the Task History record that has the Error status, and more details about the error will be available in the Message column. Look for specific details about the missing parameter(s) or field(s), such as “email” for the Create Customer action, “order_id” and “note” for the Create Order Note action, “price_value” for the Update Product Price action, or “customer_id” and “plan_id” for the Create User Membership action.
Edit your Zap’s Create action step and review all the required fields. Ensure that each required field is populated with a valid value.
trigger_error_response
The trigger_error_response error occurs when Zapier Integration for WooCommerce encounters an unexpected error while attempting to send data to Zapier.com. This error indicates that Zapier.com has responded with an unexpected error message.
Click on the relevant error message below for the next steps.

Alternatively, after searching you can add an additional step8 to your Zap to use the found Resource/data.
The following find actions are available:
The Meta Data List input field lets you add (set) multiple meta data records at once.
Find Product Zap Configuration” />
Ensure you are using a Line Item in an Order step as Step 1, then add a Find Product action as Step 2.
If your store uses product SKUs, choose to search by SKU, and insert the Line Product SKU field from Step 1 into it. This instructs the Find Product step to search using the correct (unique) product SKU from the order’s line item.
If your store does not use product SKUs and uses a mix of simple and variable products, then it will not be possible to use a single Find Product step to search for the product or variation due to the way the WooCommerce Order Line Item stores the Product ID and Variation ID in different fields. Instead, we highly recommend adding SKUs to all of your products and variations and then using a Find Product Step to search by SKU.
In step 3 of your Zap (the action) you can utilise the

When your Create Product or Update Product step executes, it will “loop” over each item in the attributes list, and send them all to WooCommerce when creating/updating the product.
The result should be a product in WooCommerce that has multiple attributes and values assigned to it.
This same technique can be used for any other line-item aware field in Zapier Integration for WooCommerce. See the Actions and Searches chapter for a full list of these line-item-enabled fields.
For each path configuration, you would set up criteria such as the following, which is based on the name of the product ordered:
Then inside each path, you would perform your desired action.
For more details on how to use Paths in your Zaps, please see this Zapier help article.
Zapier has a limit on the number of paths (and steps) in a Zap, so if you need more paths or steps, then you will need multiple Zaps.
When automatically creating Coupons in Zaps, it’s usually best to use simple, unique alphanumeric coupon codes.
You can add a Code by Zapier step to your Zap which automatically generates an alphanumeric coupon code (a-z, 0-9 and hyphens only) based on the customer’s email address:
