Resolving the 'User-Agent: 200' Error for Zapier Integrations

If you're working with webhooks or custom integrations in Zapier, you might encounter the 'User-Agent: 200' issue. This error typically indicates that the server your Zap is trying to connect to is expecting a specific user-agent string and is not accepting the one sent by Zapier. To resolve this, you'll need to modify the headers in your Zapier HTTP requests. Here's how you can go about fixing this issue:

1. Log In to Zapier: Start by logging into your Zapier account and accessing the Zap that is triggering the 'User-Agent: 200' error.

   
   



2. Edit the Zap: Navigate to the action step where the HTTP request is made. This is usually a 'Webhooks by Zapier' action or a 'Code by Zapier' action if you're using custom code to make the request.

   
   



3. Modify Headers: Once in the action step, look for the 'Headers' section. If you're using the 'Webhooks by Zapier' action, this is where you can add or modify headers. In the 'Key' field, enter 'User-Agent', and in the 'Value' field, enter the user-agent string that the server expects. If the server does not require a specific user-agent, you can try a common user-agent string such as Mozilla/5.0 to mimic a standard web browser request.

   
   

1. Test Your Zap: After saving your changes, make sure to test your Zap to ensure that the 'User-Agent: 200' error has been resolved. You should see a successful connection without the error.

   
   



2. Contact Support: If after these adjustments you are still encountering issues, don't hesitate to reach out to Zapier's support team for further assistance. They can provide more in-depth troubleshooting tailored to your specific situation.

   
   

By carefully setting the user-agent in your HTTP requests, you can overcome the 'User-Agent: 200' error and ensure your Zaps run smoothly.
