How to check for some words in a sharepoint list column?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 32

I am designing a reminder.

Aded recurrence - Get items 

Condition 1 - if field 'check1' contains "Approved" - Yes (do nothing) - No - Condtion 2 - If column 'check2' contains approved - Yes (do nothing), No send email to someone.

 

The basic condition form doesnt works. Can anyone guide to the correct condition format?

    Hi Arbangara99,

     

    Do you mean to add actions in the branch If YES? I try again with this issue, and the flow works.

    Are you able to get this working under all circumstances? Try ading action to the 'Yes' portion and see if it works accordingly. My flow works only when the field is null, but if there is any value, it doesn't work properly.
