Paths (Zapier)

Automation PlatformsIntermediate

A Zapier feature that adds conditional branches to a Zap, running different action sequences based on if/then rules.

In plain English

Paths let one Zap do different things depending on the data, like sending big deals to sales and small ones to a nurture list.

Analogy

Like a choose-your-own-adventure book that sends you to different pages based on your choice.

Why it matters

Paths let a single Zap handle multiple outcomes, similar to a router, instead of duplicating Zaps per condition.

In practice

A Path sends leads worth over $5k to a sales rep and others to a nurture sequence.
