I am currently exploring webhook integration with a WordPress site using Cloud9 IDE as a preliminary test before transitioning to a live WordPress server. I’ve set up the WordPress instance in Cloud9, which operates without issues. However, when I attempt to link my Zapier account to this WordPress setup, I consistently encounter an error message: “We ran into an issue connecting your new account: authorization failed: ResponseError()”. My initial suspicion is that it might be related to CORS issues, but I’m unsure how to examine the login process from Zapier. Has anyone been able to successfully connect Zapier to a WordPress instance hosted on Cloud9? Were there specific CORS configurations required to achieve this?
Hey Grace, make sure your WordPress site in Cloud9 is publicly accessible as Zapier needs to reach it. Sometimes Cloud9 URLs need extra permissions. Check the endpoint URL correctness and try using a tool like Postman to debug the authorization headers. let us know how it goes!
