Trigger condition for a flow connected to an RSS feed

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 86

I have a flow that uses 'When a feed item is published' and connected to an RSS feed that has three different outputs. It currently sends me an email every time that RSS feed is updated, however I want to create a trigger condition so that it only sends an email when one of the outputs contains a particular word.

 

For instance, in another flow that's connected to a Sharepoint list, I have this trigger condition: @contains(triggerOutputs()?['body/Status/Value'], 'Active')

 

With this RSS feed however, the property I want to use has this expression: TriggerBody()?['categories']

 

How can I create a similar trigger condition for my RSS feed?

    Hi @user180618,

     

    You could try something like:

    @contains(triggerOutputs()?['body/categories'], 'English Premier League')

    Thanks @Expiscornovus, that worked. What if I wanted to have an expression that contains an OR condition? So either 'English Premier League' or 'La Liga' (but not Bundesliga and so on)?

     

    Currently when you add additional trigger conditions it treats it like an AND condition ("Specify one or more expressions which must be true for the trigger to fire").

    Hi @user180618,

     

    In that case try:

    @or(contains(triggerOutputs()?['body/categories'], 'English Premier League'), contains(triggerOutputs()?['body/categories'], 'La Liga'))
