If Field of existing Row is modified then (Dataverse)

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 22

Hi all,

 

I´m about to go crazy 😂. From the beginning. I created a flow that is triggered by a dataverse table when a row is added.

It updates some additional Fields and sends an email to a certain approver. This issue comes with the next steps.

When the first approver approves, i want to trigger the second part of the flow to send an email to the next approver. 

For that the flow needs to check if a certain field of a certain row ID is modified. For this i used a second dataverse trigger "when a row is modified". Now i struggle how to select/filter that specific item (that have been approved from the 1st approver) and how i can check if the approval status 1 have been set to approved or rejected.

 

Many thanks,

Eric

    Hello @EStegemann ,

    as per my understanding based on your requirement, you don't need another flow, after the first approval action, you should add a Dataverse "Get row by ID" looking to the same row created from the Trigger, then add a Condition to check the status.

     

    Let me know.

    Hi Marco,

     

    thanks for your feedback. I already tried to use get row by ID, but the issue is that the flow runs straight through before i can change the approval status. Therefore i need a kind of action/trigger that the condition check should only take place when the approver 1 Status changed. Like (wait until approver 1 status is modified, that check status. If approved then email to approver 2, if rejected then email to requester)

    @EStegemann ,

    so you need to run a child flow that updates the row, then your flow can continue to follow the process.

    Thanks Marco. Is there any other option i can use as i haven't worked before with child flows.

    Can i trigger the second approval step through power apps? I´m asking, because each of the item approver (6 Approver per Item) need to go into power apps to set the approval. Can i use this to trigger further flows? If so, any advice how to do it?

     

    Many thanks,

    Eric
