Questions

Hi,

So I want to to pick a random file from my Google drive and move forward from there.
I got it working so far.

But for some reason, after the scenario should be finished, it starts again from Tools, and again, and again, until I stop it manually.

Why does it do this and how do I stop it. I want the whole scanario to run once per trigger.

Welcome to the Make community!

1. Screenshots of whole scenario

Please share screenshots of your whole scenario? It would really help other community members to see what you’re looking at.

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

2. Scenario blueprint

Please export the scenario blueprint file to allow others to view the mappings and settings. At the bottom of the scenario editor, you can click on the three dots to find the Export Blueprint menu item.

(Note: Exporting your scenario will not include private information or keys to your connections)

Uploading it here will look like this:

blueprint.json (12.3 KB)

3. And most importantly, Input/Output bundles

Please provide the input and output bundles of the trigger/iterator/aggregator modules by running the scenario (or get from the scenario History tab), then click the white speech bubble on the top-right of each module and select “Download input/output bundles”.

A.

Save each bundle contents in your text editor as a bundle.txt file, and upload it here into this discussion thread.

Uploading them here will look like this:

module-1-output-bundle.txt (12.3 KB)

B.

If you are unable to upload files on this forum, alternatively you can paste the formatted bundles in this manner:

  • Either add three backticks ``` before and after the code, like this:

    ```
    input/output bundle content goes here
    ```

  • Or use the format code button in the editor:

Providing the input/output bundles will allow others to replicate what is going on in the scenario even if they do not use the external service.

Following these steps will allow others to assist you here. Thanks!

Well, that is the problem then I guess. For some reason the Tools part starts multiple operations (see second image).

It does get a lot of imput from Google drive and the Array, but I was told that formula in Tools (Variable name “R”) would randomly select 1, now it seems he is going to use them all.

Please refer to the previous post for further instructions on how to get each of them.

Thank you!!

Hi @Wiro

You can stop the scenario with a combination of HTTP module and error handler - Commit.

We have explained it in detail in last part of below blog:
