Email exceptions


I have created a zap that sends out a 1-hour reminder email (gmail) whenever an event is about to begin in Calendar. This is set to email all attendees. Is there a way to put an exception in the instruction path? For example “all attendees, except bob@gmale.com”?

Hi @colinzl!

I think you could pull that off with a Formatter step, using the Replace:

 

Then on your Gmail step you map the output of that Formatter step instead of the Attendees field from your trigger step:

 

Can you give that a shot to see if it works for you?
