BigInt Failure for Saved Workflow

Hi,

I am currently trying to create a workflow as follows: When a record is created in one module (Volunteer Events), it takes what is in the "Areas Requested" multi-select field and sends an email to each match on a "Areas of Interest" multi-select field in another module (Volunteers). For example, when an event is created with the Areas Requested being Data;Art;Cooking, it sends an email out to volunteers in the Volunteers module who have Areas of Interest containing Data, Art, or Cooking (checking one by one respectively). Here is my code.

// Fetch the event details from the new Volunteer Event record

contactMap = zoho.crm.getRecordById("Volunteer_Events",areasRequested);

eventName = contactMap.get("Name");

eventBlurb = contactMap.get("Event_Blurb");

eventAreas = contactMap.get("Areas_Requested");

// Initialize a list to store volunteer email addresses

volunteerEmails = list();

// Loop through each area of interest to find matching volunteers

for each area in eventAreas

{

// Search for volunteers with matching tags

volunteers = zoho.crm.searchRecords("Volunteers","(Tags:equals:" + area + ")");

for each volunteer in volunteers

{

// Add volunteer email to the list (avoid duplicates if necessary)

email = volunteer.get("Email");

if(email != null && !volunteerEmails.contains(email))

{

volunteerEmails.add(email);

}

// Create the email content

emailSubject = "Upcoming Volunteer Event";

emailBody = "Hello,\n\nWe are excited to announce an upcoming volunteer event:\n\n" + "Event Name: " + eventName + "\n" + "Description: " + eventBlurb + "\n\n" + "Best regards";

// Send email to each volunteer

for each email in volunteerEmails

{

sendmail

[

from :zoho.adminuserid

to :email

subject :emailSubject

message :emailBody

]

}

So the code works and everything saves, meaning there is no error when trying to save the function itself.. However, when I try to test it by adding a record on Volunteer Events, it gives me the following error: Data type of the argument of the function '756' did not match the required data type of '[BIGINT]'at lineNumber 4.

Here are a few clarifications: I've ensured all API field names are correct and not mistyped. The field types are as follow: Name

is single line, Event Blurb is multi-line, and Areas Requested is multi-select.

Please let me know how I can get past this issue. Thanks!
