I'm trying to filter the automation and continue only if one field (jira assignee) is not empty. I’ve tried with “field does exist” but it passes also if the field is empty.
What is the right setting to tell zapier to continue only if the field is not empty?
Thank you! Daniele

Hi @Daniele
Good question.
At the bottom of the operator list (middle selection) there are these 2 options:
Exists
Does Not Exist
Hi Troy,
I tried with “continue only if” the field “exists”, but it passes the filter the same also if the field is empty.
@Daniele
Please post screenshots with how your Zap Filter step is configured along with the results of manually testing the Zap filter step.
@Troy Tessalone
here the screenshot
@Daniele
Based on the sample data being used from the Zap trigger step the Filter conditions would have passed as indicated by the summary that appears after manually testing the step.
Here below the issue: as you can see the field i empty but the filter does not stop the automation.
The logic sequence is:
continue if the project name is “R - Marketing”
AND
field assignee exist OR label filed contains “no-gantt”
Is it possible to obtain this without creating two filters? (that means 2 task?)
Thank you!
@Daniele
Let’s break down the configured Filter conditions compared to the values being tested.
These values:
Satisfy this condition:
That is why the Filter step would have passed.
You may need to add another condition for this: Labels Exist
