Pabbly Slack Trigger Firing on its own and Pulling in Old Messages

Hey everyone, I just bought Pabbly and set up a workflow to create new GoHighLevel contacts based on messages inside a Slack channel.
I selected a specific Slack channel that I wanted to monitor for new messages and only want to trigger the workflow in case a new group message is received inside that channel.

But as soon as I enable the workflow, it starts firing on its own, pulling in messages from several days/weeks ago.

It consumed my entire trial limit and consumed 700 of my paid tasks as well.

Is this a bug? Any workarounds would be appreciated.

Thanks

Please test the workflow now. It should work fine.

I just tried using it and the same issue exists.

The slack trigger keeps pulling older messages and adding those into GHL instead of only triggering when there is a new message. I feel you might need to take a look at how the Slack trigger is programmed. It is pulling in older messages from the channel instead of only executing when a new message is received.

Consumed 1300 tasks this time.

I had deactivated the integration before replying to this thread yesterday. Looks like it was reactivated (for testing?) and now that integration consumed all 10,000 tasks on my account!

Please take a look at this. And if you're going to be testing, please deactivate the integration after testing so that it does not consume all tasks.

Thanks.

Not to mention, now I have a TON of unneeded contacts inside GHL that I will now have to manually delete :(

Hey @axx

We have made some changes and created a new trigger event of " New Message "on Slacks' and made the old one legacy.

So. please try the new trigger event at your end and I hope this might help you.

I modified the trigger but all my tasks were consumed the last time when this bug was still in place. I'm unable to test whether the trigger is working
