Creating flow with multi select in filter to update a child record

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 243

Hi all,

 

I'm looking for some guidance on creating a flow that updates a child record, with the filtered condition using a multi select field.  The first issue is being able to locate the multi select field in the dynamic content, and the second issue is telling the flow to use the child entity.

 

Multi Select

I've attached a screen shot, but i think as of 5mins ago I have this part down.  But screen shot to show the direction.
Child Records

How do I direct to which child entity, and how do I indicate only if that entity is active?  (there should only be one active record of that entity at a time).


Any thoughts, direct, articles would be appreciated

An attempt with the filter to indicate the relationship to the custom child object - did not work.

    Hi @Tarjani ,

     

    If it is a multiple selected field, then you need to look at the name of the Option set you selected, and then find the same option in the Dynamic content list.

     

    Best Regards,
