Creating a filter to retrieve unique information from a Stripe payment link


I have two classes that are the same price. So when a person pays, they should be getting the zoom information for one but instead they’re getting the information for both classes

 

I have done new payment with a trigger event being checked out session. Completed

I have done a filter for metadata that I made as well as the pay link Id that begins with plink

 

It still says this filter step will always run

 

at this point, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong full disclaimer. I’m completely self-taught. I figured out how to do a single step automation and I was hoping to do the same with a multi step.

You need to adjust the filter conditions to be AND instead of OR.

Hi @CSSI 

The Filter step warning indicates the Filter step will always run, because you have the same dynamic variable mapped for both input fields.

The bottom/right input field should be a static value.

So what would I need to have in the second box to make it move?

 

I actually seen the article you posted that’s what got me this far lol

@CSSI

Set a static value for what you are trying to filter the dynamic variable against.

e.g. [VAR] contains XYZ

If the value of the variable represented by [VAR] can by ABC or XYZ, then it will only pass when [VAR] has a value of XYZ, not when [VAR] has a value of ABC.
