I have a sub-zap to look up employee census data.  

 

Occasionally my main zap will pass an ex-employee’s email into the sub-zap and becasue the sub-zap can’t find that person it gets stuck.

 

I want the main zap to continue weather or not it gets a hit in the sub-zap.  There doesn’t seem to be an option anywhere where I can set it to continue if no data is found.

Hi @Mary_S 

Good question.

You’ll want to add logic to the Sub-Zap to always return a value.

Try adding this Zap action: Formatter > Text > Default Value
