Now, you can proactively handle errors by setting up custom error handling. Instead of stopping your Zap, custom error handling will send your Zap down an alternate path. Your Zaps will be more resilient, allowing you to recover from errors before they impact your business. Set up custom error handling to:

  • Define how to manage errors in your Zaps.
  • Automatically fix common errors your Zap may run into.
  • Recover from errors with no loss of data or uptime.

It’s as easy as setting up an action step. Learn more about custom error handling!
