Map an array to a multi-reference field with Zapier

Design help Data API

Hi everyone,

I have a CMS collection which has a multi-reference field. I need to fill that multi-reference field with an array I get after running a Zap. The output array consists of the IDs of the items in the CMS collection to which the multi-reference field is tied to. However, I am struggling with to map those ids to the multi-reference field with Zapier

So far in my research, I’ve only seen that mapping a multi-reference field with Zapier has become impossible after the switch to Webflow API v2, but these posts / articles are quite old

Does anyone have an idea of how this can be achieved?

Thank you

Hey @ole,

I was testing this out and found that you could make use of the API Request module of Webflow in Zapier to push an update to the CMS item where you can pass a custom request with the necessary fields that you want to update which will include passing an array of the item IDs to the multi-reference field in the collection.

Here’s such a request example in Webflow API Docs. Hope this helps.
