Re: The Associations API — Has anyone found a good way to trigger events based on association label updates?
Context: I have a Private App set up that fires a webhook on Deal association changed. When it triggers, I catch the hook in Zapier, run a code step to get the Deal’s primary contact/company, and then update the Deal’s custom fields in with primary company and primary contact record IDs (dictated by association labels). This helps me easily grab this information from the Deal record in other Zaps, rather than having to use a bunch of code steps across zaps.
My issue: this only triggers when an association is made (i.e. a Contact is associated with a Deal), not when a label is updated. For example, if the primary contact changes on a company, the user would simply remove the label from one contact, and add it to another. As my private app is set up, this doesn’t trigger anything.
The solution may be to set up a polling Zap that fetches associations and labels on a schedule. Any better ideas are appreciated! :)
