I made a scenario using Facebook insigths. When trying to get the action value into the Google Sheet, it inputs the number 49, but the
number of actions is 4. How do I correct it?
Hi @SMWORKS and welcome to the Make Community!
What are the actual input and output values of the Google Sheets module when it runs?

Here you go. Under the values Výsledky it says 52 in Make, but I know from the facebook manager, the real number was 4 as you can see on the second image.
I’m assuming the second image is from the Facebook Manager. It seems to me like the problem is with whatever is populating the Google Sheet module. It says it’s receiving 52 so it’s storing 52 in the Google Sheet.
The question is: where in the flow does the 52 appear? When the data is pulled from the Facebook manager, is it already set at 52? In that case, the problem could be the Facebook module. If the Facebook module receives a 4 but the data inserted in the Google Sheet is 52, then some transformation or mapping occurred between the two modules, and that’s where the problem is.

Welcome to the Make community!
This is just a “preview”/example value that the module detected from a previous run. It will automatically use the “current” value when the scenario is run.
