I am currently working on a Zap that has a loop with paths nested inside of it. I have read a few articles on Zapier loops and they seem like they should execute similar to iterative loops in most programming languages:
For example, in this case I would expect this Zap to execute as so:
Using data from Iteration 1 → Attempt to execute Path A, attempt to execute Path B,
Using data from Iteration 2 → Attempt to execute Path A, attempt to execute Path B,
Using data from… etc.
However, when I test this Zap, it seemingly runs in this order:
Using data from Iteration 1 → Attempt to execute Path A,
Using data from Iteration 2 → Attempt to execute Path A,
Using data from Iteration 3 → Attempt to execute Path A,
Using data from Iteration 4 → Attempt to execute Path A,
Using data from Iteration 1 → Attempt to execute Path B,
Using data from Iteration 2 → Attempt to execute Path B,
Using data from… etc.
This Zap is being used to create presentation slides and as a result of this loop configuration, it’s creating slides out of order. I’ve seen a few folks put a delay on their loop and I’m wondering if that is a solution for Path steps being executed out of order from the iterative loop. Any insight on this is greatly appreciated!
