I’m so sorry to send a msg like this but I’m not understanding what´s going on!

I developed an app in Glide which record has a checkbox after payment.

Once the user pay, the checkbox is marked and I should a message to the recepients. 

The trigger is exactly this field. Everything was running perfectly in the Automate.io.

 

Here I create a zap like this. In the Automate.io had one for new and other one for update.

Once the user marks the checkbox, this record is hidden or it´s not possible to mark twice. Additionaly I save the timestamp of payment. 

What´s happenning is the this zap is running for some rows that was payed in the past, with no reason!

The checkbox field was not updated. 

Maybe I’m wrong, but it´s look like when a new row is added, the zap run for a random row, I guess!

Looking the history, I review a succeeded tasks and the Data in is a payment in the past. Why?

Since I have the timestamp of payment, is it possible to add a condition if  date of payment is today? a way to avoid taking past payments.  

 

The succeeded tasks number should be the quantity of payments´day but it´s not happening. 

My task limited is reached fast!

Someone could help me pls.

I was thinking … If I edit any other column in these past payments records the zap runs even if I don’t change the trigger field?
