    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.
