Creé un Zap para conectar mi tienda de Shopify con mi base de datos de Cloud Firestore. El proceso es el siguiente:
  1. Se activa una nueva cuenta de cliente en mi tienda de Shopify.
  2. El correo electrónico de inicio de sesión se compara con una colección de Firestore para verificar si pertenece a un usuario existente.
  3. Se crea un nuevo documento para ese usuario en una colección de Cloud Firestore, que contiene la información del cliente de Shopify.
He probado y publicado este Zap sin errores. Sin embargo, solo se activa durante las pruebas en Zapier. En el paso 1 (Cuenta de cliente activada > Probar > Continuar con el registro seleccionado), el Zap se ejecuta correctamente al probarlo con cualquier registro de cliente existente.

I created a Zap to connect my Shopify store with my Cloud Firestore database. The process is as follows:
  1. A new customer account is activated in my Shopify store.
  2. The login email is compared with a Firestore collection to verify if it belongs to an existing user.
  3. A new document is created for that user in a Cloud Firestore collection, containing the Shopify customer's information.
I have tested and published this Zap without errors. However, it only triggers during tests in Zapier. In step 1 (Customer account activated > Test > Continue with the selected record), the Zap runs correctly when tested with any existing customer record.

It seems you're facing an issue where your Zap in Zapier, which is supposed to trigger on new customer accounts in Shopify, is not activating as expected in a live environment, even though it works fine during testing. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can consider to resolve the issue: 1. **Check Shopify Trigger Settings**: Ensure that your Zap is correctly configured to trigger on new customer accounts. Sometimes, the trigger might be set to a different event, such as "updated account" instead of "new account." 2. **Zap Status**: Make sure that the Zap is turned on. It’s easy to overlook, but a Zap won’t run unless it’s activated. 3. **Shopify Permissions**: Verify that your Shopify app and permissions are correctly set up to allow Zapier to access new customer data. If there were recent changes to permissions or app settings, these might need to be updated in Zapier. 4. **Zapier Plan Limits**: Confirm that you have not reached any Zapier plan limits that might prevent the Zap from running automatically. Some Zapier plans have limits on the number of Zaps or tasks that can be run each month. 5. **Data Filtering**: Check if there are any filters or conditions in Zapier that might be preventing the Zap from triggering. For example, if you have a filter to check for specific conditions, ensure that new customer accounts meet these conditions. 6. **Logs and History**: Review the Zap history in Zapier to identify any errors or issues that might have occurred when the Zap was supposed to trigger.
