When I work on my zap within zapier, it triggers as intended. When I complete the trigger outside of the program (submitting a survey), it does not action at all.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi @CPaul 

Good question.

Please clarify what app and event you are using as the Zap trigger.

Jotform is the trigger. Every validation test along the way works and I’ve got multiple test submissions.

Final Action:

 

I have several accurate results in Airtable, all from testing the zap.

@CPaul

Jotform Zap triggers are scheduled, meaning it can take from 1-15 minutes to fire depending on your Zap plan.

Turn your Zap ON and test, then check your Zap Runs history details for errors and to see the DATA IN/OUT for each Zap step: https://zapier.com/app/history/
