Check in DateTime variable is Null or Not

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by marrieta 4

To check in if a date time variable is null or not, I did the follow condition: 

 

empty(items('Apply_each_element')?['Communication_x0020_Date']) is equal to false. When I execute the flow, the condition´s result is false instead of true.
 
When I evaluate the fields, the data shown are:
Communication Date= 2021-03-16T07:00:00Z
items('Apply_each_element')?['Communication_x0020_Date']= Blank field. 
 
How can I figure it out? or someone knows another way to check in DateTime variable is Null or Not?

    You can do a null check like below... In the Expression part, just type null.
