Stop Zapier Paths from Failing on JSON Errors

🧩 Problem

Zapier Paths error when the incoming JSON has stray commas or quotes. When malformed or unstructured data hits routers, filters, or API connectors, entire automations halt or silently drop records. Teams end up retrying runs, hand-editing payloads, and explaining delays to customers.

💡 Why This Happens

Upstream steps use AI or custom code without strict JSON validation. Most automation platforms assume well-formed payloads and do minimal validation. AI models, third-party APIs, and changing vendor schemas drift over time, mixing encodings, formats, and unexpected fields that downstream steps cannot tolerate.
