Unable to trigger when a user uses a specific react in Slack.

I’m trying to set up a zap to trigger anytime I react using a specific slack emoji within any public channel (ideally DMs, too). Unfortunately, the zap appears to be ignoring the “reaction” and “user” fields, and is triggering anytime *any* user reacts with *any* slack emoji. See screenshot:

Hi @ericgoetz 

With the Zap ON, check your Zap Runs to see the DATA IN/OUT for each step to help you troubleshoot.

You can always add a Filter as Step 2 in your Zap: https://zapier.com/apps/filter/help

Update, I went ahead and published, despite the test data being incorrect. Turns out, it’s working fine. It was just the tests that were showing false triggers.
