I'm trying to trigger a flow only when a specific field is modified. The field in question is Active Stage. But the workflow does not trigger when I add this to the conditions. Can anyone help?

Trigger workflow when a column is modified

Hi Partner,

Two reasons can cause this and you need to check the following:

1.The tables are inconsistent--The columns you select should be inside the table you select.

The flow trigger table you selected is: Deal Card Process flow.

But the column you select is in another table: Application Status history.

2.The names of the columns are not correct.

Don't get name from the column view directly, you should click this column to check more--logical name:

For example:

activestageid is we need, instead of ActiveStageId

I hope you can mark my answer verified if it answer your question! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Regards,
Leah

My mistake. I attached the wrong screenshot. It also does not fire when the correct name is added.

Hi Partner,

1.The activestageid column is in the 'Deal Card Process flow' table.

2.The BPF changed from last stage to another one?

One way to check stage is changed or not:

1)Enable 'Audit' feature on the BPF table(your example is Deal Card Process flow)

2)Check it in the 'Audit summary view' if you changed stage:

Thank you. Two questions - is there a way to audit only specific fields in the table? And, is there no way to trigger a process from changes to a specific field?

Hi Partner,

1. Is there a way to audit only specific fields in the table?

Open and edit other columns, uncheck 'Enable auditing' option, only keep the column you need.

2. Is there no way to trigger a process from changes to a specific field?

Of course, my example flow can be triggered when only active stage column change:
