Hi everyone, I am expecting the output of the compose to be "Not Collected".

because the Laptop Collected Value in SharePoint is set to "Laptop Not Collected"

Result of compose

Expression that I used in Compose. Am I doing something wrong?

if(equals(triggerOutputs()?['body/LaptopCollected/Value'], 'Laptop Not Collected'),'Not Collected','Collected')

Why are you comparing the triggerOutput, should you not be comparing against the output of the get item?

Hi @nicklim

Could you check what is the value

triggerOutputs()?['body/LaptopCollected/Value']

using a compose function ?

if(equals(outputs('Get_item')?['body/LaptopCollected/Value'], 'Laptop Not Collect'), 'Not collected', 'Collected')

Hi @nicklim

I think there is some mistake in expression, try this

if(equals(outputs('Get_item')?['body/LaptopCollected/Value'], 'Laptop Not Collected'), 'Not collected', 'Collected')
