Trigger Power Automate on Condition

This blog explains how we can trigger Power Automate based on a required condition.

Suppose you have a requirement where you want your flow to get triggered based on some condition. In this case, you can check the condition on the “Trigger” itself rather than adding a new action to check that condition.

Use Case:

1. Trigger flow when Lead is created and Lead Source Type is “Trade Show”
2. Trigger flow when Lead is created and Flag is “Yes”.
3. Trigger Flow when Lead is created, Lead Source Type is “Trade Show” AND Flag is “Yes”.
4. Trigger Flow when Lead is created, Lead Source Type is “Trade Show” OR Flag is “Yes”.

Steps to be followed:

• Trigger flow when Lead is created and Lead Source Type is “Trade Show”

1. Click on Ellipsis (…) –> Click on Settings

2. Go to Trigger Conditions and Click on “+Add”

3. Add condition.

@equals(triggerBody()?['leadsourcecode'],7)

NOTE: “Lead Source” is an option set field add the value of that option to check.

4. After adding condition click on Done.
5. Test your flow.

• Trigger flow when Lead is created and Flag is “Yes”.

Repeat step number 1 to 3.

NOTE: Flag is the “Two Option” field for two option set fields that use true or false in condition.

@equals(triggerBody()?['cf_flag'],true)

• Trigger Flow when Lead is created, Lead Source Type is “Trade Show” AND Flag is “Yes”.

Repeat step number 1 to 3.
AND Condition

@and(equals(triggerBody()?['cf_flag'],true), equals(triggerBody()?['leadsourcecode'],7))

• Trigger Flow when Lead is created, Lead Source Type is “Trade Show” OR Flag is “Yes”.

Repeat step number 1 to 3.
OR Condition

@or(equals(triggerBody()?['cf_flag'],true), equals(triggerBody()?['leadsourcecode'],7))
