Troubleshooting Waterfall Creation with Single Row Lookups

HI Team, I am trying to build a waterfall that uses a series of single row look up actions to compare 2 lists based on certain criteria. However I can't save the waterfall due to "Waterfall step missing attribute path" . What am I doing wrong? https://www.loom.com/share/2024f3934ba043a5b02bf7fccc796bcd?sid=fae0c2d4-4c78-4cbf-93cf-085ff0947aff

When you can't save a waterfall with single row lookups, it's likely due to dependency issues between columns. To fix this: 1. Check the order of your columns and ensure any dependencies are properly structured 2. Make sure your waterfall "parent" column is configured correctly 3. Verify all required API keys are set up (if applicable) For complex waterfalls comparing two lists, you may need to: ** Confirm the data types match between your lookup columns ** Structure your waterfall sequence properly (Add column > Waterfall) * Ensure your lookup criteria are valid for the comparison If you continue having issues, try creating a simpler waterfall first to test the functionality, then gradually add your lookup actions. If you need more specific help, please share the exact error message you're seeing.
