New item created or modified triggers three flows at the same time instead of following controls within.

HI,

 

In urgent need to solve flow issues. I have three flows, one individual and one two tied together in a umbrella condition ( See my screenshots). The problem is although i set a condition for all three flows to uniquely trigger , they all get triggered when a item is modified irregardless. Can someone tell me where i went wrong and how I can fix. I got the screenshots attached here.Flow1.jpgFlow2.jpgFlow 1 and 2 under one umbrella when item created or modified.jpgFlow3.jpg

    Hi @nchandran ,

     

    The flow with trigger "When an item is created or modified" would always be triggered when an item is created or modified, you could add Condition under the trigger to prevent the flow from do anything even if it is run.

    If you don't want the flow to be triggered for a condition, you could take a try to add the trigger condition as below:

    Best regards,
