I have a flow set up to check department numbers to send an approval to points of contact for said departments. My flow runs at least 20 items a week, of those items about 5 of them return false incorrectly. If I go back into the items that were marked false and hit resubmit they immediately go true and continue down the correct path. Is there some fail safe I can put in to make sure it marks true when it has a match?
