Hi all,

I've got a Flow that is being passed a shipping company name (UPS or DHL) and a Tracking Number ('TrackingNumber')and I need it to dynamically build the URL to paste into an e-mail to track a shipment. Currently I'm just handling UPS and it's working fine if I use this in my send an e-mail step.

UPS is http ://wwwapps.ups.com/WebTracking/track?track=yes&trackNums=@{triggerBody()['TrackingNumber']}">@{triggerBody()['TrackingNumber']} (i have a href tags in it but its messing up this post so I removed them)

Now I'm also initializing a value im calling "Shipper" and it will be set to "UPS" or "DHL". If it's UPS, I want it to leverage the above URL. If it's DHL, I want it to be (my dhl url stuff) /en/express/tracking.html?AWB=@{triggerBody()['TrackingNumber']}">@{triggerBody()['TrackingNumber']}</a>

I can't seem to get my ifs and variables and concat just right :(. Basically I need it to be If the variable "Shipper" = UPS use the UPS url and if "Shipper" = "DHL" use the 2nd.

Thanks in advance!

In Flow add a condition to check the value for Shipper

conditon Shipper equals UPS
Yes branch - set variable to UPS url
No branch - set variable to DHS url

and then send ur email

Thanks Reza,
I started going down that path and then thought i'd try to prevent having a condition check and have it handled in a if then compose in the event I needed to add more shipping companies in the future - so I could just use multiple ifs vs having a web of yes/no logics if I expand to 3+ shippers. Now that I'm struggling with that, I think i'll fall back to what you recommend instead as it seems like it's just complicating things since i'm not that fluent w/expressions yet :|.
Thanks!

@russrimm

Ideally you should have a SP list with following info
Shipper name
and shipping url

In flow then based on shipper selected, you can query the list and get the information for the url and accordingly use it

This will give u max flexibility
