Create a Planner Task from Sharepoint List

[kmw1130]

I have a list that I want to create Planner Tasks when a flag field is set to 'yes'.  I've done this successfully using a scheduled flow, but I'm trying to get the flow to run on that trigger.  I've created other flows using a runflow field and it's worked fine, but I can't even get this new flow to run.

My flow is triggered when an item is created or modified and in my settings I have a trigger condition (@equals(triggerOutputs()?['body/runflow'],'yes'))

Then my condition is if runflow value is equal to 'yes' create the Planner Tasks.

I've updated my runflow column to yes and it still does not run.  I done a few like this, but this one is just not running at all.

From my experience with Sharepoint Lists, if you are referencing a checkbox, you must use true/false instead of the literal variable name you set yourself.  Here is an example of a flow I currently have that has a Yes/No checkbox.  I only want values that are set to yes, therefore I set the condition to be equal to 'true'.  Try this and see if it helps.

it's a dropdown (yes/no).  but on my condition I was using 'yes' vs true.  So I will try that.

Hi @kmw1130 

Is your ’runflow‘ column of choice type? If yes, please try:

@equals(triggerOutputs()?['body/runflow/Value'],'yes')

Hope the content above may help you.

Best Regards.
