How to only post one record per scenario run.Scenario has multiple records

Scenario is XML to facebook posts. UPDATED 08/08/2025

The scenario is:

An XML feed is updated daily and made available on a URL. It contain real estate property information to make social media posts. There are 10 properties in the XML

To avoid multiple posts being published at one time on the social media platform I would like the scenario to only publish one post at each running of the scenario. The scenario will be schduled to run every 4 hours. This will enable all the properties in the xml will be published.

So that the same property is not being published every 4 hours a duplicate is made using Google sheets.

I have created the below scenario and it works for me. There are no error messages.

HTTP Make a request (https://crm.respacio.com/xml_control/generate_xml/bFpZRGJubVAyS0dVb09tZ3BIK3lHNHdyZFg1K2YwbHJHc0dGK2RFRjUvUzBoeWdRNVBZenZ1M1B5MkFmek9pVw%3D%3D/13 )

> XML parse xml [data]

> Iterator [root:property]

> Google Sheets Search rows for duplicates

> Filter only send non duplicates [Row number does not exist (in Google Sheet)]

> Router (so i could a send filter)

> Filter only send one record/bundle [Bundle order position =1 (Iterator)]

> Facebook Pages create a Post with photos

> Google Sheets add a row ( record record so it cannot be duplicated)

All I want to do is stop after one post has been published

I cannot find any way to do it - Stop, Halt, Break, pause etc

i hope this is of some help

The scenario below works for me - I just want just want it to stop/pause after one creation of a post (and registering it in Google sheets)

We’d love to help, however, you have not provided sufficient information to demonstrate the problem that would allow us to reproduce the scenario and any issue/s and/or error/s.

To allow others to assist you with your scenario, please provide the following:

1. All Relevant Screenshots

We need to see what you’re working with to give you the best advice. Screenshots are extremely important because Make is a visual editor — a picture provides us with more context.

It would help us identify the issue by having screenshots of:

  • the full scenario,
  • any error messages,
  • individual module fields,
  • relevant filter settings (conditions), and
  • each module’s output bundles
  • any external services (spreadsheet headers, sample data, regex101.com, etc.)

You can upload images here using the Upload icon in the text editor:

We would appreciate it if you could upload screenshots here instead of linking to them outside of the forum. This allows us to zoom in on the image when clicked, and avoid tracking cookies from third-party websites.

2. Scenario Blueprint

Please export the scenario blueprint. Providing your scenario blueprint file will allow others to quickly recreate and see how you have set up the mappings in each module, and also allows us take screenshots or provide module exports of any solutions we have for you in return - this would greatly benefit you in implementing our suggestions as you can simply paste module exports back into your scenario editor!

To export your scenario blueprint, click the three dots at the bottom of the editor then choose ‘Export Blueprint’.

You can upload the file here by clicking on this button:

3. Module Output Bundles

Please provide the output bundles of each of the relevant modules by running the scenario (you can also get this without re-running your scenario from the History tab).

Click on the white speech bubbles on the top-right of each module and select “Download input/output bundles”.

A. Upload as a Text File

Save each bundle contents in a plain text editor (without formatting) as a bundle.txt file.

You can upload the file here by clicking on this button:

B. Insert as Formatted Code Block

If you are unable to upload files on this forum, alternatively you can paste the formatted bundles.
Here are some ways to provide text content in a way that it won’t be modified by the forum.

  • Method 1: Type code fence manually
    Add three backticks ``` in a separate line before and after the content, like this,

    ```
    text goes here
    ```
    
  • Method 2: Highlight and click the “preformatted text” button in the editor

  • Method 3: Upload your file and share the public link
    (this method is only recommended for large files exceeding the forum upload limit)

Providing the input/output bundles will allow others to replicate what is going on in the scenario, especially if there are complex data structures (nested arrays and collections) or if external services are involved, and help you with mapping the raw property names from collections.

Sharing these details will make it easier for others to assist you.
