Hey support - quick one i am getting this "These changes would cause an infinite loop that would prevent your table from working as expected." error when trying to save an AI step. All i entered as a filter formula was "only run on rows where X is empty". Heres the URL to my workbook: https://app.clay.com/workspaces/455395/workbooks/wb_0swi4lvpuVuHQ9QHr25/tables/t_0swi56bkR9QdndAQt2N/views/gv_0swi56bVX4eheRwK4uj Any help is super appreciated!
The error you're encountering is likely due to an issue with your conditional formula. When setting up conditional runs, it's important to ensure the logic doesn't create an infinite loop. Let's troubleshoot this: 1. Open the Conditional runs editor in the Run Settings of your AI step. 2. Instead of manually typing "only run on rows where X is empty", try using the AI-assisted formula generation. 3. Click "Use AI" and type your condition in plain language. 4. Click "Generate formula" to create a proper conditional formula. 5. Verify the output to ensure it behaves as expected. If you're still having trouble, you may need to adjust your condition. For example, you could try "Only run if /X is empty" (replace X with your actual column name). If the issue persists, you might need more specific assistance. In that case, please request human support by clicking on "Talk to a person" for further help.
I used "use ai" when creating the formula
Hey, this error usually means thereās a circular referenceāwhere one step depends on another that also depends on the first, causing an infinite loop. If youāre only filtering with āonly run on rows where X is empty,ā itās possible that X is being updated by the same AI step, which would trigger the loop. So you couldn't be saying to A only run if A is empty Try checking if the step is referencing or writing to the same column itās using as a condition. If youāre unsure, feel free to record a quick video showing the setup, and weāll help you pinpoint it.
