Condition is skipped without input

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 11

I have a compose that checks if a word is contained within a previous 'get file content' action exists and returns true if so. The next action below is a conditional action that either terminates or continues the flow depending on the true/false output from 'Compose - Brand Counsel' action. Below expression on 'Condition 2' is: outputs('Compose_-_Brand_Counsel')

When testing the flow, the Condition is cancelled with no inputs, however the previous action it relies on has an outcome of "true".

    Hi @jackw1212 

     

    Go to each action and click ... and look at the Configure run after setting

    See if they all say Success or not.

     

    It can also mean it just didn't have any work to do, so check the inputs to those as well.

    I've added an action to the 'yes' result and it does indeed trigger that action. This being said however the following steps are skipped. I have tried adding all those steps under the yes result too with the same skipped result on those particular actions.

    Put something in your Yes side. 

     

    however, yes this is a thing it does depending on what you do in the condition etc. In those cases its a headscratcher, but add something to the Yes side, anything at all and see if it comes back.
