Hello @sampaht,

Could you please try performing the action by selecting a gender from the dropdown under the Gender field and confirm if it works?

Hello @sampaht,

After carefully reviewing your workflow, we found that the error was caused by the date and month input fields. Specifically, Google Contacts does not accept a leading zero in the month field.

We have added two Text Formatter steps to remove the leading zero before sending the data.

After this adjustment, everything is working perfectly.
Please test it on your end and let us know if it works as expected. Also, we would really appreciate it if you could rate our support agent using the link in the signature below.

I created follow up workflow https://connect.pabbly.com/v2/app/workflow/mapping/IjU3NjYwNTY1MDYzMTA0MzQ1MjY1NTUzNjUxMzEi_pc
But I cannot test the update google contact.
The format is same, content sent from this workflow and follow up workflow is same. One to create contact, and one to update contact.

1. There is possibility contact will have more than 1 phone number, and more than 1 email address. How to translate it to update google contact action?
2. Where is field [salutation]?
3. How to update custom fields if it is not always exist? I have 2 custom field, UID and gender (as a custom field, not Google standard field). Gender is not always sent, may be blank. If blank do not update gender.
