Send email when a specific value is selected in a column in List with Power Automate

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 26
Hello!
 
I have tried to create a flow to send an email when a specific value is selected in one column in List.
Below you can find my flow, and it works, but the email is not sent for the following reason: 'The execution of template action 'Send_an_email_(V2)' skipped: the branching condition for this action is not satisfied.'
 
Any help will be highly appreciated
Best!

    Based on your screen shot about Condition, you are using the wrong formula, for column in formula, you should not have empty space.
    In general, there is no need to manually enter outputs, you could try to reference the filed from previous step
    If you want to reference the column by manually enter Function, make sure you use the correct field name, Note, It is not the display name.
     
    For getting the filed name, you could run the flow, and make changes on the list row value, and then check the flow run history to check the output of body

    Hey KorinaHdz24,
     
    can you see where it stays loading? 
     
    Is the compose action is already sucessfull you can cancel the flow to see the result of the Compose. 
    That's the only action that we would really care about. 
     
    If this solvede your porblem please accept it as solution so others can find it as well. 
    If it helped in any other way consider liking it so we can keep supporting eachother.

    Thank you for your reply!
    Just like showed below? If yes, I've already tried, but the flow stays loading, unfortunately it doesn't show anything :(

    Hey Could you try to put your Outputs in a compose just before the branching? 
    That way you can see what's entering in the condition and maybe change it accordingly.
