I'm trying to append an array variable inside a switch statement. it is throwing an error - " ActionConditionFailed. The execution of template action 'Append_to_array_variable_2' failed: an unexpected exception encountered when evaluating branching condition."

Is the Switch action value (current item) text or an integer?

Can you check what is the output of Current Item? May be you can add a compose before switch, map it to current item and execute.

I have the same problem when trying to switch on sharepoint list string item value.
it seems to be that nested actions appending variables are not supported by the switch.
