Fix Common Squarespace Issues in Zapier

When you connect Squarespace to Zapier, you may see errors or missing data in your zaps. This how-to guide walks you through the most common problems and shows you exactly how to solve them so your automations run smoothly.

The solutions in this article are based on the official Zapier documentation for Squarespace and will help you troubleshoot issues with forms, fields, pages, and permissions.

Before You Start Using Squarespace With Zapier

Squarespace can be connected to Zapier through the built-in integration in your site. To avoid problems later, make sure the following basics are in place:

• You have a Squarespace site on a compatible version (7.0 or 7.1).
• You are an administrator or site owner with permission to connect apps.
• You have a Zapier account with the correct access level for your team.

If anything here is missing, fix that first, then return to the troubleshooting steps below.

Zapier and Squarespace Form Fields Not Appearing

One of the most common issues is that form fields from a Squarespace form block do not appear as options in your Zapier trigger or action.

Check Your Squarespace Form Layout for Zapier

First, confirm that you are using a supported form type in Squarespace. The official Zapier integration works with Form Blocks, not newsletter blocks or other non-standard forms.

1. Edit the page in Squarespace that contains your form.
2. Click the form block to open its settings.
3. Confirm it is set up as a standard form block and not a custom code form.

If you are not using a form block, switch to a supported block so Zapier can see your fields.

Refresh Form Fields in Your Zapier Trigger

Sometimes Zapier simply has an outdated copy of your form structure.

1. Open your zap that uses Squarespace as a trigger.
2. Go to the trigger step and click to edit it.
3. Select your site and form again.
4. Use the refresh or “Load more” option to pull in the latest sample data.

After refreshing, the new or updated form fields should appear and be available in later steps of your zap.

Zapier Squarespace 404 or Page Not Found Errors

Another frequent problem occurs when Zapier reports a 404 error or cannot reach a Squarespace page used in your automation.

Verify Page Status in Squarespace for Zapier

Zapier can only access live, public pages. If a page is in draft, private, password-protected, or not linked in navigation the way you expect, your zap may fail.

1. In Squarespace, open the Pages panel.
2. Locate the page used in your automation.
3. Make sure it is not marked as a draft.
4. Confirm it is active and published.

If you changed the page URL slug recently, update the corresponding settings in your zap so Zapier points to the correct address.

Check URL Format for Zapier Requests

If your zap uses a specific URL from Squarespace, verify that the address is copied exactly:

• No extra spaces or line breaks.
• Includes https:// at the beginning.
• Matches the current URL shown in your Squarespace settings.

Correct any mismatched URLs and test the zap again.

Zapier Cannot Connect to Squarespace

Connection problems between Squarespace and Zapier usually come from permission issues or an expired authorization.

Reconnect Squarespace to Zapier

If you receive authentication errors, reconnect the app:

1. In your Zapier account, go to My Apps.
2. Search for Squarespace in your connected apps list.
3. If it shows as expired or needs attention, click to reconnect.
4. Follow the prompts to log in to Squarespace and approve access.

After reconnecting, return to your zap and retest the trigger or action.

Confirm Permissions in Squarespace for Zapier

Your Squarespace user must have enough permissions for Zapier to read and write data.

• Check that your user role is an administrator, owner, or another role allowed to manage integrations.
• If you use multiple Squarespace sites under one login, confirm you granted Zapier access to the correct site.

Update permissions if needed, then reconnect from Zapier and test again.

Zapier Squarespace Form Submissions Not Triggering

Sometimes your form submissions reach Squarespace but do not trigger the connected zap.

Test a Fresh Form Submission for Zapier

Zapier needs recent examples of form submissions to detect your data.

1. Open the live page on your site that contains the form.
2. Submit a new test entry using a real email address.
3. Return to Zapier and open the zap using the Squarespace trigger.
4. Click Test trigger or the equivalent option to pull in recent data.

If the sample appears, your form is reaching Zapier correctly. If not, verify that the trigger in your zap is pointing to the exact form block you used on the page.

Check for Zapier Filter Conditions

If your zap includes filters, they might prevent a form submission from moving past the trigger.

• Review all filters in your zap.
• Temporarily disable them and test again.
• If the zap now runs, adjust your filter rules so they match the data Squarespace is actually sending.

Use test data from your trigger step to confirm which fields and values are available to Zapier.

Zapier Squarespace Data Mismatches and Missing Fields

Even when a zap runs, some Squarespace fields may appear blank or not map correctly to later steps.

Compare Sample Data With Live Data in Zapier

Zapier builds field mappings from the sample it retrieves during setup. If your sample lacks certain fields, they may be missing later.

1. In your trigger step, pull in a new sample with complete data.
2. Confirm each required field is present.
3. Reopen your action steps and re-map the fields.

Using an up-to-date sample often fixes mapping issues between Squarespace and Zapier.

Use Text Fields in Squarespace for Zapier Compatibility

Certain field types in Squarespace forms may behave differently in automations. When in doubt:

• Prefer standard text, email, and textarea fields.
• Avoid unusual or custom field types when they are not required.

Keeping your form fields simple gives Zapier more reliable data to work with in your workflows.
