SharePoint List Value "Yes/No" is coming in as "True / False" to my flow

I have a flow that starts when an item is added to a SharePoint List.

I then kick off an Approval.

One of the values I wish to approve is a Yes/No field.

But it is displaying as True/False in the Approval email.

Is it possible to get it to say Yes /No?

I try to set a variable in my flow but it is always No.

thanks

I created a push button with yes no, here is the outcome of no
As you can see, it produces the false output.

If I add the expression ( switch the dynamic content appropriately )

if(equals(triggerBody()['boolean'],false),'No','Yes')

The result is No instead

Start by typing the first part
Switch to dynamic content and select the appropriate Boolean field

Finish the remainder of the expression

I hope this helps

Hi @pmwhelan,

I mean that your yes / no option in your SharePoint list value shows as Yes / No however, the output is True / False.

I think seeing your flow helps me partially understand, hopefully I've grasped the right end of this

How to write a good forum post

If you want to produce the word yes/no then you can use the expression that I provided however, it appears that you types in Yes / No in your condition. e.g

Just change that to an expression either True / False instead of Yes / No
