I need to continue the zap only if the data on one of my cells in the new row has the same date as today().

Hi @TeamGoB! 

Thanks for sharing that helpful screenshot here. 🙂

You’d need to write it as today not as today (). That said, I think the (Date/time) Equals condition would be looking for an exact match of the date and time that the Zap runs against whatever date and time is contained within the selected Type field. So it likely won’t ever find an exact match.

We have a guide that covers another way of how to compare a date value to today’s date which you might want to try instead: Comparing to Today's Date

Hope that helps. Please do let us keep us informed on how you get on with this!
