How do I prevent duplicate deals in Pipedrive when a Slack emoji trigger is used multiple times on the same message?

Question

We use automation where when an emoticon :pipedrive: appears under a message in a given Slack channel (which is the trigger), a new deal is automatically created, a new activity is assigned to it, and information from the message itself is transferred to pipedrive note.

Unfortunately, one thing is problematic: if the emoji is removed and then added again, the deal also is added again do pipedrive! How can we avoid this?

I want this zap to work only once for a given Slack message ID. Can you suggest how to do this? This will prevent duplicates

Our zap now:

Hi @JlaczynskiYou’ll need to add logic to first find/create the Deal followed by a Filter to only continue if a new Deal was created. (e.g. Found = False)Zap Action: Pipedrive - Find DealCheck the checkbox to Create Deal if not found.
