The execution of template action 'Update_a_row' failed: an unexpected exception encountered when evaluating branching condition.

@MattiaD update row looks fine, I found a similar thread, please check this out

 

The problem appears to be that the numeric value should in fact be a string. If you change the e.g. Equals 5 to Equals "5", then it works.

 

In your case, the value is 1, please can you try?
