Using 'Change to' in flow designer trigger.

I created a Trigger in flow designer.  In the trigger I have the 'change to' condition.  However, the trigger does not fire when the condition is satisfied.  Does the 'change to' condition work in a flow designer trigger.  See image on how trigger is setup attached,  Thanks...

Hi @Sharon Williams 

Greetings!!

 

What i understood is, the change to operator work on form level in UI policy or client script as it is getting trigger on UI but when we add Change to in flow, it will not work because how the flow knows that now i need to execute.

 

In other words, untill unless an event or an action not submitted or take place at form, flow will not executed so change to will not work here.

 

Hope i am able to clear this now.

Hi AG.  I manually updated an HR profile record changing the Position ID to 7178.  The flow did not execute.  Ultimately, once the flow is executed, a HR case should be created.  However, when I ran a test in the flow, it did execute.  I need the flow to execute automatically once the condition is the trigger is satisfied. 

I have attached a screenshot of the entire flow.   I hope this are the details that you are looking for...

Try to update the trigger

Hi Atul.  I made the change to an 'updated' trigger as you suggested.  The flow is still not executing automatically when the conditions in the trigger are satisfied.  Could the 'dot walk' in the trigger be the issue?  Could the OR statement be the issue?  When using 'changes to', can an OR statement be used???  Thanks...
