Condition Function In Power Automate to compare MS Forms Answers

Hi Microsoft,

 

Condition Function In Power Automate to compare MS Forms Answers

 

I am building this flow where it would trigger when a new response is submitted in MS Forms.

 

Using Condition option I have put (And) condition which says

 

The first question          is equal to                  yes

The second question     is equal to               No

 

The above function does not work if instead of Yes and No the response I need it to identity is something like (All of the above)

 

In the second image, you would see, I have added another question for which I am trying to compare the answer which is All of the above.

 

In this kind of condition, the flow would not update the item that I want to in SP online. However, if I change the answer response to a Yes or a No in Forms and in the flow, then it works perfectly fine.

    Hi Dheeraj, SET Variable in my example is just for me to test if control is going correctly in If part of it or not. You should be using UpdateItem action based on your requirement.

    I have different quiz using which I am capturing the acknowledgment and updating it on one SharePoint List.

     

    I need to know what was the initialize variable an set variable entry that @PrasadAthalye  did, I can then at least try to see if that works for me.

    @Anonymous 

    It appears as though you have two Get Response Details actions that are attempting to retrieve data from different Forms.  That is not going to work for you.  Can you explain why you have two Get Response Details actions?

    Hi Prasad,

     

    Here is what I am trying to do...

     

    If the condition in met then the flow would update my SharePoint list with employee acknowledgment.

     

    I think you used the initialize variable function, which I don't really know.. can you share more images of how you did it, I will try to implement it and see if that can help me.

     

    All other conditions are met for me in the condition flow.

    Can you check if all 3 of your conditions are meeting correctly including Title? Also, check if there is any casing issue or extra spacing...

     

    How did you configure your questions? Dropdown OR options? I did a similar test without a title and it worked fine...
