Hi,
I have a workflow that sends an email when a column is checked "ready for review". Once the request is ready for review the users sometimes need to make a change after, however I do not want another email triggering because the workflow was modified. How can I avoid additional emails from triggering?
The Ready for Review column is a yes/no checkbox
Thank you!
That worked. It took some playing around with the YES/NO Checkbox condition. Apparently using "Yes" or "No" as the criteria doesn't work. So you either use 0(no) or 1(yes) OR true or false. It also seemed that using "Not equal to" worked better than equals to.... weird but I found others with the same issue.
Thanks again!
So you only want it to trigger when it is the only column that has changed, and that column is checked, or equals yes, etc.
If the user unchecks it, the flow would run, it would evaluate as true for the "Has Column Changed", but because you also are checking against the column value, the condition would be false and it would not send the email.
If the user modifys that column again, it would trigger another email.
Hope this helps!
IF I use this approach and the user unchecks the box, then that would also trigger another email right? Should I add another condition within the existing condition to check for the value of the column?
You could try something like this, using the "Get Changes for an item or file" action. This action will return true or false for each column that was changed.
I hope it helps!
