Condition action not working

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Unable to add actions to the "Yes" and "No" branches of a condition action. 
I've added the condition but the Yes and No branch is blank and won't let me add actions. (there is no link to add the actions)   
It's probably something really simple but I can't figure it out. I have many switches and conditions in the rest of the flow. Yes and No Branch is blank with no link to add actionsYes and No Branch is blank with no link to add actions

    Hi, does it work if you create the action outside of the yes/no branch and then drag and drop them inside?

    How many levels deep are you here in your conditional nesting? There's a nesting limit of 8 and actions within a flow are limited to 500. It maybe you're encountering a problem because of one or both of these?

    I'm able to drag and drop a condition but it won't let me add to it. 
    I've also included a picture of the nested switch and conditions. I think I'm at 6 but might be at 8. have a look. condition layers.jpg

    @Lisea123 

    @CraigStewart  is correct, the branching limit is just 8, and in the above picture I am seeing you are already on the 8th, try to combine some conditions otherwise your this use case might not be possible in Power Automate.

    Thank you that makes sense. 
    I'll adjust my flow.
