Gmail Action: Find Email - Only returning one result

I am using the Gmail action “Find Email” with a search that should return numerous emails.  My Zap runs as expected but each pass is only returning one email.  Do I need to force an iteration somehow?

Hi @Graypes 

The Gmail Find Email action will only return 1 result if a match is found, generally the most recent email.

Depending on your use case, you may want to consider using Gmail as your Zap trigger: Gmail - New Email Matching Search

 

FYI: Most apps triggers/actions/searches are configured to only handle 1 record, altho some support line items or multiple results.

There is a Looping app available to create iterations: https://zapier.com/apps/looping/integrations#triggers-and-actions
