Hello all,


I have an automation that is looking for a record with specific values.

Sometimes it does not find the matching and it is normal (it is a use case.) I would like to know if there is a way to catch the error of the find function ?

If not I was thinking of doing it with a script but I found it strange that in automatisation it is not possible to catch error or even do conditional branch.

thanks for your help

Alex

Unfortunately, this is a major problem with automations. It seems like an oversight by the Airtable developers, which is sadly not unusual.

Your only 2 options for working around this problem are:



  1. Writing a script.

    or

  2. Using a professional automation platform such as Integromat.
