Help - Reply with a message in a channel after hours ONLY (R2)

Posted on by 18

So yes, I was able to get a couple of flows created.  When a new channel message is added, reply with a message in a channel with condition action for time for each.  One flow is set to reply only between 8am - 6pm EST and the other only between 6pm - 8am EST.  A different reply message for each flow.  Screenshot shows the condition expressions.  The only difference is that one is lessOrEqual to 8 and greaterOrEqual to 18.  The other flow is the same except for reverse logic.  greaterOrEqual to 8 and lessOrEqual to 18.  That way, one runs from 8am-6pm EST and the other, with a different reply message, runs from 6pm ET-8amET.  The 1st flow from 8am ET to 6pm ET ran all day without issue and floats to terminate - Cancelled as expected after 6pm ET today.  The other flow that is supposed to pick up and start running after 6pm ET is not running and floats to cancelled as well.  I've messed something up somewhere I supposed, but don't know what.  The condition action shows as "Cancelled" with no inputs.

    Hi @NewGuy313,

     

    Your expression at a first glance look alright.

     

    However, I would suggest to add all the expressions from the condition to a Compose action, just before the Condition action.

     

    This way you can easily troubleshoot and see which values the Condition action is actually using (and why it is going to the If No)
