Using FilterArray shows no input

I'm using a Flow to create an Email contact after sending a confirmation email from a mailaddress supplied from a Forms-form.

 

Most of my settings work as intended, but if a person signes up several times I get multiple contacts for the same user, so I wanted to prevent that.

 

My plan was to get all contacts, filter out any matching the same email that the user has supplied, and if the list is empty (no contact exists) then create the contact.

As seen in the image, I get contacts, but when supplying them to FilterArray it doesn't register anything as input.

Any ideas on what else to try?

    Hi @Utbildning,

     

    Could you please share a full screenshot of your flow’s configuration?
    I have made a test on my side and don’t have the issue that you mentioned. Besides, I think there is something wrong with your formula in “Filter array” action. According to the formula that you provided, I could not filter contacts array within “Filter array” action.

    My flow’s configuration as below:6.JPG

    Within “Filter array” action, click “Edit in advanced mode”, type the following formula:

     

    @equals(item()?['EmailAddresses']?[0]?['Address'], 'Test2@xxxxxxxxxxxx.com')

     

     Note: 'Test2@xxxxxxxxxxxx.com' is an example email address.

     

    The flow works successfully as below:7.JPG

     

    Please check if you have filled proper value within From field of “Filter array” action.

     

    Best regards,

    Kris
