I have a zap set up where, based on the conditions, only one path should be completed. How do I tell the zap that not completing a path is not an error?

Hi @briansballoons 

 

Like @nicksimard , some more details would definitely help in answering your question. 

 

If I understand correctly, let’s say you have 3 options and you only have 2 paths, i.e.: some options you dont want to run in the zap at all. In order to do that you would need to add a Filter by Zapier BEFORE the paths (preferably right after the trigger but this depends on your needs and on the setup you currently have) where it only have the options you want to run 

 

Let me known if this helps

Hi @briansballoons!
Can you elaborate a bit on how you’ve got the the Zap (and Paths) set up, to give us an idea of whether there’s a way to make this work differently? 

Thanks!

Sorry for the late reply - busy week! Yes, that was it @MohSwellam and I do have that set up. I think it might have been a bug because it stopped sending the error messages over the weekend. 

 

Really appreciate yall responding!

No problem @briansballoons 

 

So did you end up adding that filter or was it already there?
