Hi there!

To handle which messages are surfaced to the user, you have access to z.errors collection.

You can use Code Mode in the Visual Builder app, or convert your app to CLI for a better experience when using code. 

Code Mode: https://platform.zapier.com/docs/faq#how-does-code-mode-work

Export to CLI: https://platform.zapier.com/docs/export

Error Handling Toolset: https://github.com/zapier/zapier-platform/blob/master/packages/cli/README.md#error-handling
