PowerApp Checkboxes - Conditional value in Flow

(0) Share

Report

Posted on by OptumBA

I am working on a large application and I am stuck on why my flow keeps saying that my condition statement is false even though I am checking the box. I am just on the start of building the flow, so there isn’t anything else built into it, other than the ERP Environment value.

The flow has no problem going through the first conditional statement, it’s when it gets to the checkbox condition. The field is just a checkbox field, Boolean, nothing special. I have tried just using the word true, using the word true but as an expression (as shown in the screenshot).
I am sure I am missing something simple, any help would be great!

Hi @OptumBA ,

I've had issues with Boolean variables as it converts them to string.
So, I keep string values only
as Boolean gives -> true and string conversion gives -> True
Since this is case sensitive, flow fails

Try keeping string and if you need conversion, use string to boolean.

Hope this helps

Hi @OptumBA ,

In this case, I also confirmed that the value of checkbox.value is type of Boolean, which means you will need to use the true as expression format.

I think everything described in your post is fine, and thus you will need to check again what value is passed to this flow for real. Make sure it has the value of correct Checkbox.Value.
