Trigger Conditions in Forms

Hello, 

 

I have a Power Automate I built to run through a set of approvals. The user wants to adjust the flow to trigger only if the question answered returns a specific result. I tried using a trigger condition in the "when a new response is submitted" trigger, but I get an error for formatting. I am unsure if it is because I built the expression using the "get response details" dynamic content in the filter array step to build my trigger. 

Any guidance would be appreciated.

I have a question in the form which is a boolean data type and it returns true trigger this flow to run. 

Sample of my trigger I pasted in settings...
@equals(outputs('Get_response_details')?['body/REDACTED'], True)

    Aww man 😞 I guess I will have to do it the less efficient way. I appreciate the information.

    It can't be done with the forms trigger since it doesn't contain information about the answers being submitted. That's why the next step is to get response details. At that point the flow knows what the answers to the questions are. But that information isn't available in the trigger.
