Hi,

I have a power automate flow with SharePoint trigger "When item or file is modified"

I need to add a trigger condition where it can only starts the flow if "Created by" user modifies the SharePoint line item.

As the "Created by" user will not be the same for each item, I cannot put a static email address in the trigger condition.

With "Created by" user, there will be 3 other users who will have access to the same Line item so I have to make sure to start the flow only when the line item is modified by the "Created by" user.

How can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance

Go to the settings for the trigger and click on Add under Trigger Conditions

Enter the following:

@equals(triggerOutputs()?['body/Editor/Email'],triggerOutputs()?['body/Author/Email'] )

Your Flow won't fire unless the modified by person is the same as the created by person.
