I authorize Pabbly Support to log in to my account and make changes to the specified workflow for troubleshooting.

I need a workflow that triggers manually, once daily, etc, that will iterate through my google contacts and clear/delete any dates in anniversary fields.

How can this be done?

Hi @livefastdiehard,

Could you please specify the exact number of contacts you currently have in your Google Contacts list?

Hi @livefastdiehard,

Unfortunately, due to the number of contacts, this use case is not possible, as the Google Contacts API can only list 1,000 contacts at a time.

thats fine, I can do it in batches

Hi @livefastdiehard,

Please allow us some time to test the possibility, and we will get back to you once we have an update.

‘Get All Contacts’ action step will keep returning the same contacts repeatedly, so we will not be able to use that action step. However, we may have another workaround that could help you with this use case.

Please export all your contacts to a Google Sheets spreadsheet and let us know once you have done so. We have set up this workflow on your behalf to help you achieve the use case (please avoid making any changes to it).

Just export your contacts to a Google Sheets spreadsheet and let us know the name of the spreadsheet. We will take care of the rest.
