No you will not be able to filter run if action based on a people picker field. Use condition action.
@mcamarco ....could you please provide more information on what exactly you're trying to achieve?
or in the conditional branch:
If Initiator is equal to user -- run an approval process under the "no" branch.
@mcamarco .....did you try saving your user in a variable and then comparing it with initiator or vice versa or both?
I saved each user as a variable using their email, the conditional branch didnt run properly.
Is that using o365?
I'm using the Conditional Branch action within my workflow and have it configured as follows:
@mcamarco .....Is there a reason for using email id instead of username or display name? If you want to compare the email then you can get the email of the initiator and then compare it with your variable. If equal operator doesn't work then try using contain operator.
No, this is on prem SP. But, you can directly type users name and that should be fine.
@brightlight ....If @mcamarco has dynamic users then it won't work.
