Condition returns false when input should be true

Posted on by

Hi all, 

I'm trying to use a condition to return a score on an MS form submission. Below is an example of a condition I set up:

apzrx_0-1720208189706.png
Below is a previous submission to the above condition (from Forms):

apzrx_1-1720208235714.png
However, it turns false:

apzrx_2-1720208347583.png

 

This issue only persists with number only answers on lickert scales. I've tried using the "contains" condition but the flow fails. The only condition I've found that allows the flow to run is "is equal to." Any insight on this would be much appreciated.

    Hi @apzrx 

     

    You have to go into the Run and view the actual values that are being used. You have one dynamic property and one hardcoded value (which I assume is a number)

     

    As a simple test

    Create a Compose above this condition.

     

    Put in your Property 20 (1) and lets see what value it actually spits out. 


    If I have helped you, I would really appreciate if you please Mark my answer as Resolved/Answered, and give it a thumbs up, so it can help others

    Cheers

    Thank You

    The problem here might be that the value from the form submission is a string while the right value in your condition (7000) is a number.

     

    Try the expression

    string(7000)
