First Zap build in years

I have a Team Tracker in Google Sheets that my team keeps updated. It has multiple columns. Column D is Status and has a dropdown. When PreApproved is chosen from that dropdown, I want three columns of info to feed to a Table in Notion. 

Can someone assist me with the necessary steps? 

Hi ​@adamblackmortgage 

Try these Zap steps:

  1. Trigger: GSheets - New or Updated Row
  2. Action: Filter
    1. Conditions
      1. Check Column D = Preapproved
        AND
      2. Check Column XXX does not exist
    2. Help: https://zapier.com/apps/filter/integrations#help
  3. Action: Notion - Create Database Item
  4. Action: GSheets - Update Row
    1. Add a Column XXX to indicate you’ve already processed this row by logging the created Notion Item ID

  1. Thanks for the help on the Zap. I'm still not having any luck and I'm sure it's user error. I follow you until I get to Filter in Step 2. I get the first Only Continue if but when you say  “Check Column XXX does not exist” I’m not sure how to proceed. This is a snipit of where I am

 

​@adamblackmortgage 

Check the Filter step warning.

You have the same variable checking against itself.

Thus, the condition will always evaluate to true.

For the bottom field of the condition, enter a static value.

 

Thanks again for trying to help but you’re talking over my head. i don’t know what you mean “For the bottom field of the condition, enter a static value.”

​@adamblackmortgage 

In the screenshot below there are 3 fields that make up a Filter condition...

Left/Top: leave this as the dynamic variable for “Status”

Middle: operator (e.g. contains)

Bottom/Right: set this as a static value that you manually type in (e.g. Pre-Approved)

 

 

Hey ​@adamblackmortgage, just checking in! 👋 Did Troy’s latest reply help you to get the filter setup sorted?

Let us know how it went - happy to lend a hand if you’re still stuck at all! 🙂
