Hi! I am a newbie at this and have no experience with code, so please be kind.

I am trying to set up a Zap that is triggered by a new reaction in Slack. We have people send links that we need organized in a Google Sheet with multiple tabs. I thought the best route would be set-up paths for each tab with conditions, but then I realized that the Path Conditions only output is either “true” or “false” and not the links that passed. Is that right?

Additionally, I need a path that is any links that did not meet the conditions of the other 4 paths (the “To Be Sorted” in the screenshot). But then I realized that would require 480 rows on manually input conditions (20 links max and 24 conditions total). Sooooo is there any easier way to do this? Any help is appreciated, thank you!!!

Hi @rileyb 

Help links for Paths: https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496288555917

Each path will be tried, meaning it is possible for 0+ paths to process for a Zap Run.

 

For the URL you would map the URL value from Step 4 since that is the actual value being evaluated by the Filter step.


Hi @rileyb 👋

Just wanted to hop in here and suggest setting a fallback path to run when the other paths branches don’t run:

Hope that helps. If you’re still stuck or there’s anything else we can help with just let us know! 🙂
