Posted on by CyberWolf11

Hello! I've got a Flow that I'm using to send out an email. I'm trying to provide data from a Microsoft form and I want no data to show if a specific answer is selected. Here is how far I've gotten. (sorry for my inexpertise, im self taught and out of ideas)

if(equals(outputs('Get_response_details')?['body/rb07b3d582adf4b4e95ecf5bb69a8fb81'],'See Other TM List')'',outputs('Get_response_details')?['body/rb07b3d582adf4b4e95ecf5bb69a8fb81'])

The expression is returning "Expression is Invalid" . I know there is something wrong with this expression but I cant quite put my finger on it.

TIA!

(also any classes or useful websites to learn about Power automate and expressions would be greatly appreciated.)

The expressions needs to be in this format:

if(<expression>, <valueIfTrue>, <valueIfFalse>)

<valueIfTrue> The value to return when the expression is true
<valueIfFalse> The value to return when the expression is false
For example:

if(equals(1, 1), 'yes', 'no')

So you need ensure you have added both the true and false values:

if( equals(outputs('Get_response_details')?['body/rb07b3d582adf4b4e95ecf5bb69a8fb81'],'See Other TM List'), <valueIfTrue>, <valueIfFalse> )

and I think you may have also made an accidental typing error too
