Flow Designer flow triggered on first update only

[Renee-17]

Created a trigger in flow designer. 

Trigger fires off when table is updated and a value in the OutOfStock field changes to Y or QuantityOnStock changes 0.  I've specified this trigger to run (For Every update) and also tried (For each unique change).

I have a record in the table for test.  The very first time the OutOfStock value was changed to Y, it sent a notification as designed. 

In testing the same record, I changed the value to N and then changed it back to Y.  I was expecting to see another notification, but didn't see any.

Is there some rule, that says it will only fire once for each record?

This may have something to do with the notifications being the exact same, and the system already has one queued up to send. Can you check your Flow's contexts, and confirm that it is running every time your condition is met or not?

How do I check my Flow's contexts?

Before doing anything, ensure that your flow is being reported on.

Go to your Flow in Flow Designer, click the three dots, click Flow reporing settings

If it's not already, turn it on Full

Next, click the three dots again, then click on Executions

It will take you to a list view of your flow executions. Sort by created. Click on into the record, and it will take you to another record. Click the Open In Operations View related link

This will take you to the context view of your flow in flow designer

Meet your conditions for the flow to fire, check your flow contexts, fire it again, ensure that it ran again.

This was very helpful.  Thank you!

My trigger is now firing off and sending 2 Notifications.  The trigger condition is set to fire if the value in the OutOfStock field changes to Y or QuantityOnStock changes 0.  So if I change both values in a record manually back to back, I get 2 messages.  Is there any way to change the behavior to only fire once.  I'm thinking there isn't but just thought I'd ask.  The Fire only Once doesn't work because it one fire if the value is toggled to N and then back to Y any subsequent time after the first time.
