Power automate flows running with blank entries

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I am writing this as I require some assistance with power automate flows. It is attached to 3 SharePoint lists and they are automatically populated by this form “SystemS”.

My issue is that when a request is raised , a blank entry is always created within the other SharePoint lists despite the blank entries.

I have used branching on the form so you only see the areas which are relevant to them.

Please help me to prevent this blank entry. I have shared the flow below.

Is there any way to prevent a flow from running if the fields are blank? I have multiple flows attached to one form which has branching on it. I do not wish for blank entries to populate my SharePoint lists, with eventually my whole organisation using this form, it will become even more of a hassle to delete the entries and draw proper data from the lists.

Please help!

Please help if possible!

Did you try to check if the field is blank using a condition?

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can add trigger condition to check if fields are blank.
