Guidance on mapping fields: raw vs regular
When selecting fields to map data to your other apps, you will notice that there are two types of fields available: "raw" and "regular".
The difference between the two is how the data is processed:
- Raw fields: These are unformatted fields, meaning it’s the exact data provided by the Meta API.
- Regular fields: These are formatted fields, meaning they are structured and uniform making them easier to work with.
In this example, you can see there are two fields available to map for an email address.
Both types of fields are valid, and in some cases may be the same, depending on how the user inputted the data.
Zapier recommends using regular fields, to reduce formatting issues once the Zap is live.
