Hello,

I want to update a status field when an item is modified but i keep getting false in the expression

Field name: EDC status

I have tried

Status equals Complete
Status value equals Complete
Writing an expression in the status field and set to true but i don't understand the syntax fully and its saying its not valid

Can someone please advise?

Thank you

Re: Update a status field

Its should be straight forward but it just keeps saying False.
I would like to go down the expression route but i can't get it right.
Thank you

@egornua1

Before ur condition add a compose data operation and pass the value on your left handside, run your flow and open history.. And u will check how the EDS status is returned.

@egornua1 you should be using Status Value from dynamic content.
