Trigger conditions - path

[Rejdy]

Hello guys!

I am again asking you for your help with my flow 🙂

As i would like to create only one flow for my approval process i think i have to work with Trigger conditions. My situation is following: we have an approval process for 3 units under one department, the process is triggered by multiple people and approvers are different for each unit. Our folder tree in Sharepoint is: Orders/Unit(1,2,3)/status(new, approved, declined, signed)/responsible person(A,B,C). I want the flow to trigger only when a file is added to folder "new" for each of the 3 units (because our flow creates new files in other folders during the process, such as signed pdf from AdobeSign in folder "signed"). Therefore, i was thinking about adding multiple trigger conditions to the trigger, as follows:

@equals(triggerBody()?['{Path}'], 'Shared Documents/Orders/Unit(1,2,3)/new/responsible(A,B,C)/')

This would result in 9 trigger conditions. When i added only one condition as mentioned above, the flow worked, but when i was trying to add second row the flow was able to be saved but it did not work anymore (not even the first condition).

@equals(triggerBody()?['{Path}'], 'Shared Documents/Orders/Unit1/new/responsibleA/')

@or(equals(triggerBody()?['{Path}'], 'Shared Documents/Orders/Unit1/new/responsibleB/'))

Does anyone know how to solve this issue and help me? Are my conditions written wrong? Thank you in advance!

Hi @Rejdy 

Can you share more details on how did you club the conditons? 

For example if you wanted an OR condition it would look something like this: 

@or(equals(triggerBody()?['{Path}'], 'Shared Documents/Orders/Unit(1,new/responsible(A,B,C)/'),equals(triggerBody()?['{Path}'], 'Shared Documents/Orders/Unit1/new/responsibleA/'))

Hope this Helps!

Hi!

Did you consider the possibility to use contains()?

@contains(triggerBody()?['{Path}'], 'Shared Documents/Orders/')

and

@contains(triggerBody()?['{Path}'], '/new/')

and

@contains(triggerBody()?['{Path}'], '/UnitX/')

So no matter you add more responsibles in the feature, your flow is easier to mantain

Hope this helps
