Insert value in a SPO column based on value in another

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 410

I thought this would be an easy one, but no ...

 

I am building a Flow for one use only in a Sharepoint list: I manually trigger the Flow, get the items from Sharepoint list, then I want the items that have the value 0 in Alternatives column "Besvarad" to be updated with the value No in Yes/No column "Besvarat". 

 

The Flow runs seccessfully, but nothing happens in the list. What is wrong?

 

Alternative 1, with condition:

I have tried to use both "Besvarad value" and "Besvarad" in the condition, and tried with both "is equal to" and "is less or equal to".

Alternative 2, with Filter query:

    You're completely right - the value was blank. I thought about it once again and changed the Filter query to 

    Besvarad eq '0'

    and that made it work. Guess I should have thought of that myself 🙂

    Thanks!

    Hi @MrtnM 

     

    Check your run history results. Most likely the value is blank. In that case better to use an expression to check empty or length to determine whether a value exists or not.

     

    Please let me know how it goes.

     

    Thanks

    It's an Alternatives (Options?) multiple choice column.
