Checking the status field of all items in a sharepoint list
ArefHalmstrand The condition step seems to be working, but now it is failing when I'm trying to update the 2nd list that contains the count.

ArefHalmstrandIt's the first and only item in the list, but I am still getting the following error...
- Sep 29, 2020If it is the first item in a list, the ID should be 0
- Sep 29, 2020Try to manually add the ID of the listitem (the ID can be shown if you edit the current view in the list).

ArefHalmstrand I'm thinking it has something to do with the *ID (unique identifier of item to be updated). I was just choosing ID, but I don't think that uniquely identifies the item in the list.

rbutgins21 That should really not be an issue, updating a second list based on a trigger on the first list is common. However the connection has to be configured. I will try to find time to create a similar solution to try it out and see if I can recreate the same error that you are receiving.

ArefHalmstrandI guess I should ask the question - is it possible to have a trigger where an item is created or modified from one list and check the status on that list and if it meets the criteria - process an update item for another list. I'm basically trying to count the number of branches on the trigger list, that have been changed to verified, by updating the count on a separate list. The update step is where it is failing - it's telling me that the list item is not found.
- Sep 28, 2020Could there be an issue with the actual list? It is hard for me to give any solid advice.
