I see the answer to a similar question here:
However, when the Zapier Virtual Assistant chat bot is asked the same question, it says that paths are executed one at a time in order that they are listed. So what’s the correct current answer?
Here’s the assistant’s full response:
Yes, the different paths in a Paths step are executed in a particular order. The order of execution is determined by the rules you set up for each path. When a trigger event occurs, Zapier evaluates the rules for each path in the order they are defined. The first path whose rules are met will be executed, and the subsequent paths will be skipped. So, the execution order follows the order in which the paths are defined.
