Hello,
I’m wondering if it is possible to filter Paypal recurring payments and recurring donations?

Possible to filter PayPal recurring payments and donations?

Hey
With the PayPal integration I believe there’s a field called txn_type, which will return the word "recurring" for recurring subscription type payments. If you change the Filter to check the txn_type field (rather than the Raw Ipn Body field) for the word recurring, that should allow you to identify whether the payment triggering the Zap is a recurring one.
Hopefully that helps! :)

Hello,
there’s not much discussion in the that thread so it’s not very helpful. I’m not able to filter out any text that contains ‘recurring’ or similar

Can you send a few screenshots from the Zapier trigger showing what data you receive from paypal?
