Hello Power users,

 

I was working on a requirement with a conditional trigger that needs to be triggered if the previous value is not same as the modified value. Fro example column value is "Hello" and changes to "Hey". then the flow needs to be triggered. Any help or suggestions please?

 

Thanks in advance!

    Hi @KrishR 

     

    That's a great use case, but I don't know if it's possible in the trigger step. 

     

    It's possible with some actions to fetch the previous version. See here for details.

     

    I think what you can do is the following:

    1. Get the previous value using this strategy
    2. Check if the value is the same.
    3. If not, then proceed.

     

    Again, your solution would be great, but I think this is the only way to achieve what you need.

     

    Cheers
    Manuel
