Row not found - Zap Halted notification

I have action steps in some zaps that lookup Rows in google sheets.If the row is not found, the zap is halted.This happens fairly often (it is expected) and I keep getting "Halted notification" emails, which I then have to open to see which Zap halted.I could turn Halt notifications off altogether (it is an account-wide setting), but for some other zaps it is important for me to be notified if they are halted.I could also choose the option "if row not found -> add row", but in this case it is not appropriate.Usually I would put a filter, but in this case the filter would come AFTER the action, so the halted notification is already triggered.Does anybody have a workaround so that "If row not found", it doesn't trigger a halted notification?

Generating a timestamp

Often I have integrations that don't pass on a timestamp but where it is desirable to have on passed through to the next action. I've tried several things using formatter. Nothing worked properly.Does anyone have a quick and easy way to achieve this?Many thanks in advanceP

Clockify's "New Timer Start" and "New Time Entry" triggers have the same behavior

As far as I understand...."New Timer Start" should trigger immediately when Clockify initiates a start timer"New Time Entry" should trigger ONLY when a complete time entry (that is, a timer that has started and ended) is initiated.Currently, "New Time Entry" seems to exhibit the same behavior as "New Timer Start" - shouldn't it only trigger when Clockify's EndTime field is not null?Been spending too much time trying to get this right : I want Zaps to trigger Clockify when TIMER ENDS, so that it will add to my Google Calendar w/ an END TIME so that when Zapier adds to my calendar, it will include BOTH "Start" and "End" time in a Detailed Event. What am I doing wrong?At the moment, this is how I have my zap setupwhen New Timer Started in ClockifyCreate Detailed Event in Google CalendarHowever, when a new Timer Starts, there's technically no End Time. I would prefer my Google Calendar to track my time accurately by

I'm noticing a lot of dead end help links in the zap editor

Since the new help centre went live, I'm noticing a lot of the in-editor help links lead to dead ends now.For example:That link used to take you right to the 'Numbers' section on the Formatter help page, but now it just takes you to start of the guide.The REALLY annoying one is this one:It used to lead to a really helpful cheat sheet of how to construct different date formats, but now it's lost somewhere 😕

Removing 'Flood Protection' from a specific zap.

As I write this, I'm 99.99% certain the answer is no, but just for fun, I'll ask it anyways. I've built a set of zaps for a client, to allow them to run a variable number of checklists in Process Street, based on the variable number of stores they manage (roughly 1100). The first zap runs based on a schedule, grabs the variable number of stores from a Google Sheet as a single concatenated value, pastes them into another sheet as individuals rows, which triggers the second zap. Because of this, roughly 1100 rows are created each time this runs (once a month). The second zap is then triggered by the new row created, which then takes the data, confirms it via a lookup back to the Google Sheet, and then runs a checklist in Process Street. This is a way to essentially do a loop, on a schedule, for a variable amount of entries containing variable data, using a zap. I'm gonna be making some content around this later. However, the sort of minor issue is that the sheer numbe

Building a workflow with multiple "if" conditions that can run concurrently

Originally asked by @IgniteMarketing:There are multiple “ifs” possibilities, where we’ll want to do additional actions depending on data received on a form. What’s the best way to set it up? A simple filter would cause it to end too early if a certain if fails but I need to do another.Paths are a potential option, but can multiple paths trigger at once?

Use variables to control colour in a document

Hello! I'm trying to think of a way to make a PDF that will have tables colour-coded to the results of variables I'll be passing through (pass/fail red and green, basically).At the moment my best idea is to create a HTML template with CSS controlling the colours, pass the colour-states in through Zapier and then PDF-print (Google Cloud print or similar) the resulting file.I'm not sure how to achieve this, however. Has anyone either got a way for me to import and format the HTML, or a better way to do this?Thanks in advance!

How can I create a Zap/workflow that only runs during business hours?

Sometimes you'll need your Zap(s) to detect if something has triggered after hours, and if so to add on a delay until business hours again. So, for example, if someone submits a form at 8pm, wait until 8am the next day. The Tricky Part is that the Zap can trigger the day before (e.g. 8pm) or it can be the same day that you want to send, but not business hours yet (e.g. 3am). So how do you set the delay?I'd love to explore some of the available options both with and without utilizing Paths.

How can I get a Slack message every morning showing all of my meetings for the day?

Each day I have different meetings and I'd like to be able to see all of them at the start of the day, without needing to go to Google Calendar. I'm always in Slack, so I think that it would be handy to have a Slack message sent every morning at 8am with all of my meetings for the day in it. What would be the best way to do that with Zapier?

Oauth 2.0 for webhook calls from Zapier

Without writing a whole app to deploy on Zapier is there a way I can do Oauth 2.0 token requests assuming timeouts and refreshing tokens. I'm envisioning the workflow to be something like this:Trigger: Simple webhook (called on a schedule or from another Zap as needed to get information)Step 1: Get the token from Storage appStep 2: Run a webhook to test if the token is valid stillPath A: - if token valid Then do the actual webhook call to get the information needed.Path B: - if token expired or error on the first stepPath B, Step 1: make a call to refresh the tokenPath B, Step 2: store the new token in storagePath B, Step 3: Call the webhook to re-trigger this zap (yikes, possibility for non ending loops here)What am I missing here? Is this doable?

How to define segments when splitting a string of 2+ words using code

For example: Someone uses their full name in one field instead of first and last in separate fields. If you then want to split it and define the first word (name) as the first name and any other words in that field as the last name, you can do that using some JavaScript code.Option 1First name’s the same no matter what, so we can define it herevar firstname = nameArr[0]var lastnameCheck if there’s more than 2 elements in the array (i.e. a middle or multi-stage name)if(nameArr.length > 2){Remove the first item in the arraynameArr.shift()Then join that modified array up with a space in between the elementslastname = nameArr.join(" ")} else {But if there’s less than two (i.e normal name) then return the last name as you werelastname = nameArr[nameArr.length - 1]}output = [{firstname, lastname}];Option 2Here is another alternative:var fullName = input.name.split(' ');var firstName = fullName.shift();var lastName = fullName.join(' ');output = [{firstname: fi
