Common Problems
1. Problem with accessing custom fields
The Zoho Bookings API provides all your custom-created fields under an object labeled 'customer_more_info'. You can access them by mapping this variable (Customer more info) from the Insert Variables section, and then editing the formula in the following manner:
${trigger.customer_more_info.<custom_field>}
For example, if you have labeled a custom field as 'Reference', then you can access your custom field by modifying the formula as follows:
- ${trigger.customer_more_info.Reference}
However, if the label contains spaces instead of underscores (_), you will need to use double underscores (__) in the formula for it to function correctly. For example, if the field name is 'Referred by', your modified formula should be:
- ${trigger.customer_more_info.Referred__by}
