restrictions in Condition action

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Dear All

 

is there's any restrictions for the action " condiction"

below is my workflow as I set the out come from approval as text + Dynamic value.

it's from "get item", as i didn't get any error while checking and saving.

But every time i run i turns to false and when i check the process the  Dynamic value "name" was removed.

my options in approval is using the exact same "text + Dynamic value( which is "name" from last action- get item)" 

does that mean it only allows to input text in the condition value.

    I'm not super clear on what you're trying to do here -- "Outcome" is only going to tell you if it was approved or rejected. And a condition with an "is equal to" has to match exactly in order to be "true", otherwise it will return "false". Right now what you have will never return true.

     

    If you want to combine some contents, like Outcome & Name, you'll need to put them into an expression with a Concat, or at least cram them both into the same first field.
