I'm attempting to automate my rent roles. I want to create a zapier that will delete all rows at the beginning of the month that have a checkout date in them. My first action is look up spreadsheet rows (advanced) in google sheets. I have check out date as my lookup column and [:nonempty:] as my look up value. For some reason during all test runs it says, “failed to find a spreadsheet rows in Google Sheets. Error from halted execution: nothing could be found for the search.” even though there's rows in my Google sheet with check out dates.

Hi ​@Jonfun 

For us to have more info, post screenshots showing:

  • how your GSheet is configured so we can see
    • Row 1 headers
    • Column with dates and the date format
  • how your Zap steps are outlined
  • how your Zap steps are configured in the CONFIGURE tab while in EDIT mode
