Troubleshooting Client's Repeated Action Failures in X Scrape

·Aug 14, 2025 02:26 AM·

hey friends... a client of mine keeps having a few steps re-run after an action fails (X scrape) but tries again (more details in thread)

essentially, the X scraper fails, then it continues with the rest of the steps (including creating a doc)... then, after the entire workflow runs, the agent tries to re-run the X scraper which then re-runs those same downstream tasks, creating another doc unexpectedly

doesn't look like there's a way to keep the action from re-running (no setting inside the action menu)... should he handle this with a prompt in settings? something like "do not re-run if something fails?"

Hey Rex! Ohh, I see 🤔 I'm not entirely sure why it's re-triggering here. I would think that if you added a 'Do Nothing' action after 'Email Sent' and 'Email Received', it may be able to prevent from 'Observing' the X scrape from trying again. Would love Marvin A.’s thoughts here!

Looks like a bug to me Alon J. the scraper shouldn’t return data twice. 👀
