Hey all, 
 
I'm trying to trigger a condition based off the value in a SharePoint column which is a choice column.  I've added the condition in, but the result keeps coming back "false" and I'm not sure where I'm going wrong with it.  I'm not using the "trigger" section under the "When an item is created" action, but I'm using the actual "Condition" section.  See my attachments.

    Hi,
     
    You can do this by using the conditional action but remember your flow will run for every single item created when really it looks like you only want to run it when DriverType equals CDL driver.  You can do that by adding the trigger conditions in the settings "..." of the trigger.
     
    equals(triggerOutputs()?['body/DriverType'], 'CDL Driver')
     
    That said, if you want to use as-is, without the above trigger condition, in your current flow, remove the Get item that was created action because it is not needed.  All your dynamic content exists in the trigger.  Then in your condition action, reference DriverType from the trigger.
