This may or may not be a very complex issue, but to me, it seems complex. Here is what I am (in a nutshell) trying to accomplish. I am a beginner lever user of Zapier automation. I am working on this problem, but it seems dauting. I created master Zap, but I can’t it looping automatically every 24hrs. 

The dental lab company I work with receives large volume of sales data from their ecommerce built on WooCommerce (WordPress) website. My task is to create consistent workflow to streamline 24 hours data flow automatically move from Dropbox file called "designs" file to "designs archive" file, by creating a master Zapier zap.

The goal is to ensure the automation enable all files in the '/designs' directory are automatically moved to '/designs archive' once per day. It keeps the workspace clean and maintains organized achieves of completed design files.

I need help to create looping by Zapier to get the data that comes from the website to Monday.com, flow to Dropbox folder, then to Dropbox archive flow every 24hours.

Hi and welcome to the Community, ​@kaiser7! 🎉

Hmm, if the Zap already runs once per sale/new design file, then looping might not actually be needed. Instead you could use a Delay For action (set to 24 hours) ahead of a Move File Dropbox action. That should ensure that 24 hours after the design comes in, it’s archived.

Do you think that approach could work, or are there multiple designs per order?


Hey ​@kaiser7,

I think you can also look into Schedule by Zapier trigger and set it to run every 24 hours. 

 


Hope it helps!


​Hey ​@kaiser7, just checking in! Did using a Delay For action or that Every Day trigger that Sparsh suggested do the trick?

Keep us posted on your progress, want to make sure you’re all set 🙂


Thanks for checking in. Delay For action or Every Day trigger did not work I would appreciate to hop on a call to help me.
Thank you.
