Learning Recap: Multi-Path Automation with

Learning Recap: Multi-Path Automation with Zapier Paths Today I advanced my Zapier skills by learning Paths — a way to build automations that branch into different outcomes based on the data they receive, rather than following a single straight line. What I Practiced ✅ Removed a single Filter step from an existing HubSpot automation ✅ Added a Paths by Zapier step in its place, splitting the workflow into two branches ✅ Configured Path A with a condition: only continue if Contact City exactly matches a specific value ✅ Configured Path B with the opposite condition: only continue if Contact City does not match that value ✅ Built a personalized email for Path A using dynamic contact data (first name and email) ✅ Built a separate, differently-worded personalized email for Path B using the same dynamic fields ✅ Ran live tests on both Path A and Path B to confirm each branch’s logic worked correctly ✅ Confirmed both email actions sent successfully during testing Skills Practiced • Conditional branching logic (multi-path automation) • Rule-based decision making within a workflow • Dynamic data personalization across multiple branches • Live testing and validation of complex, multi-step automations
