Continuing a Zap after there's an error (zipecodeapi.com)


I have the same problem. I’m using zipcodeapi.com to retrieve city and state in a zap that’s collecting user information for our wireless portal. Works great until someone enters a bogus zip that the API can’t find then it kills the whole zap!

Try adding a Filter step to the Zap to check if the expected value was returned from the API before having the Zap proceed, which should eliminate the errors.

Hey @tim829,

Just wanted to check in to see whether you were able to solve this using a Filter step as Troy suggested?
