I have 2 columns that the output is being merged into "New Column" for now, but when I want to do conditional run it doesnt show the values in every column, is this happening to someone else too?

This is a common issue with merged columns and conditional runs. The problem typically occurs because: Formula Logic Issues: Your merge formula may assume data exists in every row, causing errors when some rows are empty. Add conditional logic like "if {{response}} exists..." to only process rows with data. Auto-Update Settings: If auto-update is disabled, downstream columns won't reflect updated records, making the merge appear incomplete. Turn on auto-update or manually trigger columns by right-clicking and selecting 'Run column.' Conditional Run Timing: For conditional runs, add a condition to only run if all required variables are present. This prevents the enrichment from running before all data is updated. For dependent columns, use Clay.getCellStatus({{field_id}}) to check if preceding columns have finished processing before running conditional logic.

Hi Tomaš, Thanks for reaching out to support. Which 2 columns are you hoping to merge, and which column are you hoping to place a conditional run on, and what are the conditions you want set for that?
