My ad is collecting name and numbers. Agile requires emails so I used the formatter tool to by pass not having the email but now with creating new contacts. Now I’m getting duplicate contact email error. How can I fix this?

It’s tricky working around the restrictions of an app, but you could do this if you add a number on the end of your fake email address and increase by one for every new contact (eg test1@gmail.com, test2@gmail.com)
To do that, you’ll need to use the Storage by Zapier app. Storage allows you to store and retrieve information using secure ‘keys’ (think of them as different rooms). This help guide gives you an introduction on how it works: Save data between Zaps
In this case, you could store a number using Storage and increase it by one every time the Zap runs. The Zap would look like this:
I hope that helps!
This sounds like it will work. I’m currently trying to set it up but I'm a little confused.
? 2. Storage - Get Value.? What value do I get if there is no emails?
Do I plug in the storage get value for the email address for the step that creates the contacts in Agile CRM?
