    Greetings,

    I have a custom post type with custom taxonomy like job_listing_category and case27_job_listing_tags. Upon post update, the details will be sent to google sheet.

    I am able to send most of the details except for these custom taxonomies and post data and post update date. They are just empty and in the Advance option for token, there is no taxonomy option, i see Post meta, user meta but no post terms?

    Please assist.

    Hi @kelvinayoub ,

    You’re right, at the moment there is a gap in passing taxonomy data (mostly because there can be several values and types, and we don’t have a way to structure that data the way a user might need it). We’re working on a solution for that now. The awkward workaround would be adding several actions and conditions, so, “if a post’s taxonomy equals this, run this Google action that has the taxonomy hardcoded in the value” for each taxonomy option, but then that’s a lot of conditions and actions if you have a lot of taxonomy data.

    As for “post data”, can you confirm what you mean for that record? If it’s post body, one of the “Post content” tokens should work. And for “post update date”, you might be able to use one of the tokens in the “Date and time” group, though if the action is delayed, maybe not. If it’s not the date the recipe run is fired from the post update, can you confirm what date/time would be used?

    Thanks

    Since it has been a few weeks since the last update, we’ll tentatively mark this as closed.
