condition expression when a specific sharepoint list column is updated

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 7

Hi, I've been trying to have the right condition expression when a specific column in my sharepoint list is updated:

I have the following condition expression identifying when only the column Review results was changed and two other criteria when the review results is open and request status is open

I also have the same in parallel, but with Review results as failed.

But somehow, all these criteria is not working as expected.

 

Any help will be highly appreciated!

    I've been using and creating expressions there correctly, but it seems that whenever I do the changes in the sharepoint list, it is not working properly. I am now confused why.

    I think you're asking how to get the value from your choice column. If so, you choose it from the dynamic content picker:

    In the above example, I have a choice column named Choices. For your condition, you want to use the Choices Value as that returns the selected choice.

    Hi David,

     

    Thanks for the insight.

    The Boolean field is coming from the action “get changes for an item or file”, I use the expression where that column is changed is equal to true, since I believe it’s a Boolean.

     

    yes, the columns are choice field, how do I do that dynamic value?

     

    thanks!

    Is the field where you have True a Boolean yes/no field? If so, you need to use the expression builder to populate True rather than typing the value in. Also, are any of your fields choice fields? If so, be sure the first part of the expression is using the dynamic content of the field that has Value after it. And finally, equal statements are case-sensitive.
