Switch in a Drop Down Menu - Teams Notification

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2151102 13

I'm developing a flow that sends a Teams message for a channel whenever a certain field of a List is changed. The List's field is "Validação EC". This Drop Down Menu has three choices "Pending", "Approved" and "Not Approved". "Pending" is there by default when a new item is added. My goal is for a message to be sent through Teams whenever this field is changed to "Approved" or "Not Approved". I then specify the text that is sent.

 

Currently the flow is not flowing in the Switch Connector due to the following problem:

Basically it says that the "Validação EC" field is type "object" and it should be type "integer"?

I've attached san image that shows the whole flow.

 

Glad for any help.

    Even though the current error appears to be at the switch level, the current message that is supposedly sending fetches the new drop down menu value that was updated. So if the field "Validação EC" gets changed to "Approved", that body "Approved" shall appear in the message. Same thing if it gets "Not Approved"
