This flow was working when there was only one condition (PO Number). If there the newly created item's PO number exist in the list, it will send an approval email. If there wasnt, it will be approved automatically. When I tried adding the other condition (both PO Number and Client Name), it doesnt work anymore. It will just approved automatically.

My expression in Condition 2:

length(outputs('Get_items')?['body/value'])

I am not really sure where I did wrong. I made sure the column names are correct based on the URL link.

Hi @rzainm

Is Client Name a column name in SharePoint?
Please use ClientName instead of Client_x0020_ Name in Filter query

Hello @v-liwei-msft thank you for replying. It got an error when I used ClientName, saying the column name ClientName does not exist.
Column name for Client Name based on URL is supposedly

I would also like to add that both PO Number and Client Name are lookup columns from different lists.

I was able to get this flow working by just changing PO Number Value and Client Name Value to PO Number Id and Client Name Id. For Lookup columns, I think it will look at its ID and not the value itself.
