I’m importing purchase orders from Xero, to create or update a database item in Notion.
The problem is the filter setup to check if a purchase order number already exists in the notion database, to either create a database item or update a database item.
I’ve tried iterators and aggregators without success.
I suspect an iteration to check the array coming from Notion search objects needs to be checked against an array of purchases orders from Xero to filter.
Hey Laura,
the Search needs to happen before the router, then after the router you have the filters → one path if a match is found to update it and a second path if no match is found to create it.
I have tried to do that, but the filter doesn’t work as it needs to compare an array of bundles from notion to a single value in xero. I haven’t been able to create that array successfully for the purpose of implementing the filter.

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:
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:
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’.
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”.
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:
If you are unable to upload files on this forum, alternatively you can paste the formatted bundles.
To provide code/text using Markdown format, you can type a code fence.
Add three backticks ``` in a separate line before and after the content, like this,
```
text goes here
```
Alternatively, you can 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.
