Required_Columns_Not_Populated

Hi

 

This is my first post, so be gentle with me if I'm asking a noddy question.

 

I have an approval flow that is manually called that approves a file (XLSX/DOCX etc)

Some of the columns relating to to file are Mandatory so I want my flow to stop & report this rather than falling over with "Unable to process template language expressions for action 'Condition:_Required_Columns_Not_Populated'"

 

Is there an if available/Is known function available. Currently I've been trying:-

what's in the Condition image.

 

Any help would be greatfully received as I've spent ages Googling this with no luck.

    @Muck_Moses 

    Is the Requester a person/group column in SharePoint, if true instead of using Requester equals, you can use an called called requester value from the dynamic content and check on that(Requester value eq null) or you can do Requester Contains null.
