Hello! I'm trying to build a workflow for my product team where a bot in Slack asks the team which metrics they want to record for a new feature that we've released. I then want it to update the documentation for the feature in a Coda doc. I've got stuck though using "retrieve thread messages" in Slack. The Zapier bot messages the channel asking the PM to reply with the metric they want to record. "Retrieve thread messages" then obviously records both messages (the original and the reply) so I've used Formatter by Zapier to split the two messages using the comma. This seems to work well because I get this output (see first screenshot below) but then when I go into the Coda zap that follows this one, it doesn't offer me the option of separating these outputs for the Success Metric field in Coda (see second screenshot). Anyone have any ideas? Or is this something that's just not possible?
