Tips & tricks:


You may encounter the problems described below after uploading your file; take a look at them to learn how to fix them.

 

Invalid Token ID error:

When the Token ID provided in the Zapier Account Creation Screen differs from the Original Token ID, the system will display an error as "Invalid token error." The original Token ID must be correctly and accurately stated in order to correct this.


Email address configuration error:

The system will identify this as an "email address is not configured error" if the email was sent from a different address than the one you mentioned as a source email address. Use the configured source E-mail id to sort out this problem.


Processing error:

It's likely that the file you just uploaded is empty if you get an email message that says "processing error" and contains blank status reports for both errors and successes. In this case, you should review the data sheet before uploading the file.
