Wish I could select a custom value in a filter

Would be great to select a value vs entering manually

I am attempting to send a Slack DM at the end of a process. I’m using two counters in Storage to keep track. One is called counter_pending, the other counter_generated. I was hoping to compare the two at this step of my Zap and if they are equal, then let someone know the process is finished. However I can’t configure the filter to only continue if two Storage keys match.

I’m sure I’ll figure out another way to approach this but it made me realize for the first time that this is not possible with a filter and I wish it was.

Hi @donovanwatts - Thanks for writing in today! Happy to help.

Oh, this is great feedback. I’ve added this to our feature wish list for Filter by Zapier to include a dynamic method for you to compare custom values a certain point in your zap and only proceed if it’s equal. Once we have an update to share, you’ll be notified via email directly. Please let me know if you have any further questions!
