I'll like to send e-mail if update item contains text "Approve" for specific filed "검토의견1"

As you see below output, " Approve Park, cheon sun 2021 - 10 -13 T ... " but no input indicated and below error message.

I don't know what is the difference between contains and equal to but equal to is well recognize text but contain looks not.

Is there any solution to solve it ?

Re: Condition contains text

Hello @CSPark

Does the variable on the left side of your formula have string-type value?
The error message says "The provided value is of type 'Null'".
I'm afraid you haven't set a value to the variable correctly.

Please search and find other threads which was already solved the same issue as yours. For example:
Solved: Condition if string contains a specific character - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com)

Good luck.

Re: Condition contains text

@CFernandes Thanks for your advice.

I was interested in 2nd Option you suggested below.
Is there any format to implement with below condition design with variable option ?
Actually I'm really beginner so not used to variable f(x) format.
Contain needs a collection(array) - see - https://www.flowjoe.io/2020/06/19/power-automate-functions-contains/

Hey Mate @CSPark

I assume you are just trying for Approval - If yes, you can directly query the Output see - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/modern-approvals#add-a-condition

Contain needs a collection(array) - see - https://www.flowjoe.io/2020/06/19/power-automate-functions-contains/

With refernce to the error, you can getting null instead of collection - You can find the expression to validate it at - https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Power-Automate/first-argument-collection-to-be-a-dictionary-object-an-array-or/td-p/918410
