Custom Code Not Working in Workflow

Hi folks,

I’m having some trouble with the custom code I wrote for a workflow. We have a page where our potential customers can sign up for a variety of free trials. On that page, there is a free trial ID that gets passed back to us through the form so we know exactly which free trial they signed up for, and that ID indicates all of the information we need to create a deal (subject, location, date, and time). I’m trying to use the custom code pictured below to make deal creation easier:

def main(free_trial_id):
 free_trial_name = free_trial_id[0] + free_trial_id[1]
 free_trial_location = free_trial_id[4]
 free_trial_date = free_trial_id[5] + free_trial_id[6] + free_trial_id[7] + free_trial_id[8]
 free_trial_time = free_trial_id[9] + free_trial_id[10] + free_trial_id[11] + free_trial_id[12]
 if free_trial_name == "01":
 free_trial_name = "Scratch JR. Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "02":
 free_trial_name = "Robotics - ages 5-8 Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "03":
 free_trial_name = "Scratch Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "04":
 free_trial_name = "Minecraft Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "05":
 free_trial_name = "Roblox Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "06":
 free_trial_name = "Python Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "07":
 free_trial_name = "Robotics - ages 9-13 Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "08":
 free_trial_name = "Java Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "09":
 free_trial_name = "Javascript Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "10":
 free_trial_name = "FLL Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "11":
 free_trial_name = "ACSL Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "12":
 free_trial_name = "Mobile Apps Free Trial"
 elif free_trial_name == "13":
 free_trial_name = "AP Java Free Trial"
 else:
 free_trial_name = "Free Trial"

 if free_trial_location == "1":
 free_trial_location = "Park Slope"
 elif free_trial_location == "2":
 free_trial_location = "Cobble Hill"
 elif free_trial_location == "3":
 free_trial_location = "Lexington"
 elif free_trial_location == "4":
 free_trial_location = "Acton"
 elif free_trial_location == "5":
 free_trial_location = "Newton"
 elif free_trial_location == "6":
 free_trial_location = "Online"
 else:
 free_trial_location = "Default"

 if free_trial_location == "Online":
 if int(free_trial_id[9]) == 1:
 free_trial_time = free_trial_id[9] + free_trial_id[10] + ":" + free_trial_id[11] + free_trial_id[12] + "AM EST"
 else:
 free_trial_time = free_trial_id[9] + free_trial_id[10] + ":" + free_trial_id[11] + free_trial_id[12] + "PM EST"
 else:
 free_trial_time = free_trial_id[9] + free_trial_id[10] + ":" + free_trial_id[11] + free_trial_id[12]

 free_trial_date = free_trial_id[5] + free_trial_id[6] + "/" + free_trial_id[7] + free_trial_id[8]
 email = event["inputFields"]["email"]
 # Return the output data that can be used in later actions in your workflow.
 return {
 "outputFields": {
 "free_trial_name": free_trial_name,
 "free_trial_location": free_trial_location,
 "free_trial_time": free_trial_time,
 "free_trial_date": free_trial_date
 }
 }

I keep getting the error “Key error: 0” which to me implies hat the free trial ID isn’t making it in to the code even though I specifiy it as a property using the hubspot feature and pass it as a parameter in main. Does anyone have any idea why this may not be working? We have a lot of free trials so this would make deal creation a lot easier for us.

It sounds like you’re trying to streamline your workflow for creating deals based on the free trial sign-ups. You have a webpage where customers can choose from different free trials, and when they sign up, a free trial ID is passed back through the form. This ID carries all the key details you need to generate a deal, like the subject, location, date, and time. You’re now working on a custom code to automatically pull that information from the ID, making the deal creation process more efficient, but you’re facing some challenges in implementing it.

It sounds like you’re trying to automate deal creation based on the free trial ID submitted through your form. The issue is likely with how the ID data is being captured or mapped in your custom code. Check that the form correctly passes the ID to your workflow and that your code retrieves and uses it properly to populate the deal fields (subject, location, date, and time). Reviewing your variable mapping and any parsing logic should help resolve the problem.
