Best Practices for Retaining Values in Row Update Actions

·

dumb question that I'm hoping others find valuable... is this the correct way to have a "Row Update" action leave these cells' values alone? I recently had a rogue agent delete what was in both Name and Email cells (the two values that trigger the Lindy)

Rex H. If you're noticing that leaving 'Set Manually' blank is working, I would encourage you to continue doing that. My only hesitation is that it will fully wipe out the cell

related… I’m wondering if there’s a way to do this… have a Lindy review the tasks list, see where the email and name were deleted and repair by updating the row with the previously known data

I think it has something to do with the way Lindy is indexing the columns... see this task: https://chat.lindy.ai/rex-harriss-workspace-3/lindy/aicrm-68104515014a0064235ebdeb/tasks?task=68755960d3bda41bd030d2bc

in Zapier, they have a default state for fields that simply ignores them

when I look through the task flow linked above, I see the name and email in 0 and 1, respectively, then the update step "Enrich, Enrich, Enrich" seems to be off

what's your take, Alon? is the only fix for this to have an Prompt AI step using your prompt for now?
