Conditions not working

Posted on by mrichards1371 57
Hello, I have two conditions that contain 2 OR's and 1 AND. For some reason though, both conditions are being flagged as True when I run the flow. 
 
First Condition: If either of these Approval outcomes = Approve AND the user profile office location = US, the condition is True. 
 
Second Condition: If either of these Approval outcomes = Approve AND the user profile = France, the condition is True. 
 
For some reason, each of these conditions are returning True, which doesn't make sense since the users office location can only be set to 1 country. I've tried messing around with the check boxes (no idea what they're for?) but when I save the flow after checking them and go back into the flow, they're unchecked again. 
 
Please help, I'm losing my mind over this!

    I would simplify your condition to evaluate whether one of two expressions returns true:
    This method is usually much more reliable. The two expressions used, which may vary slightly depending on the naming of the actions in your flow are:
    1. and(or(equals(outputs('Wait_for_an_approval_1')?['body/outcome'],'Approve'), equals(outputs('Wait_for_an_approval_2')?['body/outcome'],'Approve')), equals(outputs('Get_user_profile_(V2)')?['body/officeLocation'],'US'))
    2. and(or(equals(outputs('Wait_for_an_approval_1')?['body/outcome'],'Approve'), equals(outputs('Wait_for_an_approval_2')?['body/outcome'],'Approve')), equals(outputs('Get_user_profile_(V2)')?['body/officeLocation'],'France'))
