Checking multiple answer choices

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 70

My flow starts "when a forms response is submitted" and in my form, I have a "multiple answer" question where they are given 4 options and they can pick all that apply. But in my flow, how do I actually "check" that?

 

I just tried "if (question) is equal to Option 1, Option 3" but it doesn't get caught in this check

    It should work. Can you copy and paste exact responses in comparisons.. Mine works fine. See below...

     

    Flow to compare colors responded by users...

    Pictures in order:

    1) My forms (I show that I am in fact choosing Option 1 and Option 3, which is what I check for in my conditions)

    2) The way my flow is set up to check for the above

    3) the result of what happens to my flow

    Ok got it. So its multiple choice and as a result, output is a collection. Split the output into array and traverse through it. Then use Contains to compare desired one. If you need, exact compare then you might have to play with string manipulation to remove quotes...
