I am trying to get the response from a Form and based on the response, send an email to different recipients. I am getting an error about branching. I dont have any branching in the form that is related the response for this flow.

Please help with suggestions.

Thank you!

Are you able to show your flow in edit mode so we can see how you've configured it?

Hi all, here is the expanded view. it is a test flow so I can learn switch and incorporate it into my real flow.

Try wrapping the Switch with string().

(Where I have outputs('Compose'), you'd have your LOCATION NUMBER output from your form.)

(If you've added it correctly, it'll turn purple, like you see in the switch field.)

Hi @Rose708 ,

I don't see you have marked a response as a solution, here's what I found. I entered your flow in exactly as you have it and duplicated the error. Next I made sure the my form question was a number value (by using restrictions). Next I used compose and converted the value from get responses to number using int().

This seems to work for me, let me know if this works for you too! I was able to send an email to different addresses based on cases and then also send to a default case. Always glad to help! Tom
