Recording a Yes answer as false

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello

 

I'm a real newbie to this, so apologies if this is a basic question! I have created the flow below which I thinks says that if the choice answer is Yes to the question Does your Manager need to approve this booking request? then then Yes side of the flow kicks in.  However if Yes is selected, it's recording the answer as false so the flow is going down the No condition.  Any suggestions?

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    After your get response details, insert a compose (temporary) and select your dynamic value for the "Does your Manager need to approve this booking request",  Run the flow, check the history and output of the compose action and check to see what value is being returned.  Most likely it isn't "Yes" and this is why your condition evaluates false/No.  It is case sensitive too, so if the actual answer is yes rather than Yes, you need to update your string.

    Thank you so much Damien - I have resolved the issue as it was looking for true instead of Yes!
