Hi. I am trying to generate an incrementing sequence of number using the Pabbly Number Formatter, Action Event Counter. It is setup to start from number 40 and increment by 1, however when my flow is triggered and the data from the Pabbly Number Formatter is sent to my spreadsheet, the next number is not 41 as expected but 43. Please advise how to set this up so that I get the expected and desired number appearing in my data.

Hey @NextLevelBros,

The screen recording link that you shared seems to be inaccessible. Can you please share the video again?

Please note that you can reset the Final Value to 40 by selecting "Yes" in the "Reset on Execution" field.

Hi, thanks for the response.

The screen recording link I shared is not inacessible, it is in fact being blocked by Pabbly Forum when you click on it, for some misguided reason. I find it rather annoying that this should be the case, why would this forum block the video recording that I provide to help you understand my support ticket? In any case, if you wish to see my screen recording, you can simply copy the link and paste it into the URL bar of your browser.

I have tried to reset the number formatter counter using the Reset on execution field as you suggested, I hope that now it starts the count from the right number when someone submits the form that triggers this flow. If it does not work, I will follow up here.

You might have only hyperlinked the text of the link, not the complete URL. Though we have hyperlinked it again and it is now not redirecting to an empty link.

Thanks for the update, kindly do let us know if you get stuck at any step.
