Write to custom fields
-
hi,
I’m trying to use WP Webhooks together with Zapier to create new custom posts using custom fields. I found the docs for writing to custom taxonomies, but haven’t found a guide for writing to custom fields.
when reading the custom field data in Zapier they are named like this:
custom_field: 8: test content 1 10: test content 2 12: test content 3 15: test content 4 18: test content 5 21: test content 6 24: test content 7 27: test content 8

hi, thank you for the quick response!
is meta_input available in the free plugin version or is the pro version needed? I’ve tried sending meta_input as an argument with create_post but no meta items are created.
Using get_post to fetch the info from an existing post, the fields look like this:
"post_meta": { "_edit_lock": ["1590247166:1"], "_edit_last": ["1"], "uppgiftslamnare": ["sample data"], "_uppgiftslamnare": ["field_5ec2a5c559ee2"], "mejladress": ["sample data"], "_mejladress": ["field_5ec2a5ee59ee3"], "webbadress": ["sample data"], "_webbadress": ["field_5ec2a61a59ee4"], "samling-institution": ["sample data"], "_samling-institution": ["field_5ec2a62959ee5"], "berattelse_om_saken": ["sample data"], "_berattelse_om_saken": ["field_5ec2a63c59ee6"] }and my meta_input argument has the following value in Zapier:
{"uppgiftslamnare":"[{{87705849__field_HBU7VKuxzVym}}]","mejladress":"[{{87705849__field_ZyoUbwhwD4N2}}]","samling-institution":"[{{87705849__field_Hk2x97p5nvqb}}]","berattelse_om_saken":"[{{87705849__field_kJrz8yElzFHS}}]","_uppgiftslamnare": ["field_5ec2a5c559ee2"],"_mejladress": ["field_5ec2a5ee59ee3"],"_webbadress": ["field_5ec2a61a59ee4"],"_samling-institution": ["field_5ec2a62959ee5"],"_berattelse_om_saken": ["field_5ec2a63c59ee6"]}…the post created using this meta_input doesn’t have any of the values in its post_meta object.
