Trigger control to look at only a specific change in column

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 36

Hi All!

 

I am trying to find out how to set up a trigger condition to only activate when there is a change in specific column in share-point. This will help with the infinite loop issue that I have when there is change .

 

I got this here. But I am not sure it is correct. When I run it it dose not do anything.

 

@And(equals(triggerBody()?['Status'], 'Active'), not(equals(triggerBody()?['Status'], triggerOutputs()?['queries']?[0]?['Status'])))

 

 The column that I am looking at the Status column.

    Hi @wmedina 

     

    Do you want to trigger only when status is active? Have a look at my video tutorial.

    I am actually trying to see to trigger if there is any changes in status from checked In or any changes noted if possible

    Hi @wmedina 

     

    If its a single column change you want to track and further updates of any other field changes does not want to trigger then you need to implement in a different way.

     

    Have a look on this article.

    It looks like it working. However, It appears that it creating a loop because it wont clear out the drop-down and it keep updating the status value
