Hi! I currently have below condition for my flow trigger. How do I modify the formula if I want it to run if the Status value is either 'New' or 'Pending'? Sounds simple but not sure how to modify it. Thank you so much!

Hi @jaanihsm

You code would look like:

@or( equals(triggerBody()?['Status']?['Value'], 'New'), equals(triggerBody()?['Status']?['Value'], 'Pending') )

If you have any questions or feedback, please let me know. Have a great day! 😊

Just added a new trigger but my flow is still not triggering. My SharePoint list has 2 'New' items. Any directions? Thank you!

Hi @SpongYe! I hope you don't mind if I have a follow-up question.

My flow is running twice and the first Signer gets 2 email notifications. Can you please help me check what is wrong? Is it because of the first condition?

When a user creates a request for signature, the status value is 'New'. If it is new, Signers multi-select column is checked if any is away via a filter query on a delegation SP list.

If request needs delegation, Signers (Approvers variable) is edited and then status value is changed from New to Pending.
If request does not need delegation, Signers (Approvers variable) just gets the Signers claims, no changes but updates the item from New to Pending.

Not sure why I am getting the email notification twice? I need to keep Status to Pending to loop until all signatures are done. But even if I only have one Signer, flow runs twice? Please help! Thank you in advance!
