Switch inside an IF statement gives error ActionBranchingConditionNotSatisfied

ActionBranchingConditionNotSatisfied. The execution of template action 'Switch' skipped: the branching condition for this action is not satisfied.

Switch is in the true side of the IF statement.

I have tried different things for the value for the switch. 1) field from the request, 2) variable, 3) string

I used compose to see the value(s) before the IF statement. Always shows correctly.

Switch worked before the IF statement was added and when I remove the IF statement the switch still works.

anyone have experience with this?

Re: Switch inside an IF statement gives error ActionBranchingConditionNotSatisfied

It sounds like you need to look at the IF condition action, "ActionBranchingConditionNotSatisfied. The execution of template action 'Switch' skipped: the branching condition for this action is not satisfied." means that the IF condition returned false since your switch is on the true side of the IF statement.

what is your If statement and what are the values inside of it?

Hi @urklnme ,
Please use expression in condition Action you cannot directly match whether the action return value or not.

empty(outputs('Does_Work_item_already_exist')?['body/value'])
