We have a new Zapier integration and we need your help testing it! This new app&nbsp;includes some long-awaited updates, such as the "Update" action&nbsp;and&nbsp;other useful&nbsp;updates to make your apps even more powerful.

### How do I&nbsp;join?

The integration is now live! You can use it by adding a new zap or editing your existing zap to use any of the new actions / triggers.

### Do I need to recreate my Zaps?

Since this is a new Zapier app, you do need to recreate any Knack step so that it uses the new app instead.

### **Will my old Zaps still work?**

Yes,&nbsp;your zaps will always work with the original integration.

### What's new?

**Triggers**

- "Updated Record" triggers will now be triggered by inline edits in tables.

**Actions**

- New "Search" action:&nbsp;Looks up a Knack record using a unique field value and returns all record values.
- New "Update Record" action:&nbsp;Looks up a Knack record using a unique field value and updates any of its fields.

**Enhancements**

- Complex field properties now work properly. i.e "URL" property of a file field&nbsp;will now work properly.
- Tons of internal unit tests! This will help us test the Zapier integration easier and avoid regressions to existing functionality.
- New Knack connections in Zapier will now have the app name populated by default.

&nbsp;

As always, we welcome any feedback! If you're having any technical issues, please open a ticket with our support team.

Hi, can i ask a question, i have trouble with updating records as per this post;

[https://support.knack.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/222516367-Add-to-record-rather-than-overwrite-using-Form-Rules-Record-Rules](https://support.knack.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/222516367-Add-to-record-rather-than-overwrite-using-Form-Rules-Record-Rules)

its a very long post, so for TLDR, i struggle with adding info to a record, rather than overwriting the record.

Does this use of zapier make this solution easier?&nbsp;
