Conditional Start Workflow Won't Run After Form Submit Using "Connect to value"

I have a form that, when submitted, has a "Connected to value" of 1 tied to a single text column. So the form should submit and save '1' to the column. My workflow then will start conditionally if the column's value is '1'. Except the workflow's condition does not work. I have tried using different values and changing the column to different accepted column types, but nothing seems to work. 

 

How can I start the workflow only if the connected to value is set to a specific value? It's almost as if the form is not saving the value quick enough before the workflow condition is checked (just a theory though).

Can you check if this works on modification with same condition as test case ?


Can you check version history if the connected field value is updated after creation?

Thanks for the reply. I checked and the value is being saved once the form is submitted. The workflow just doesn't see it for some reason. Only thing I can think of is that the value isn't saved fast enough and the workflow doesn't see it.


 


I will try triggering a modify workflow tonight to see if it fares better.

Please check that the "workflow can use app permissions" feature is enabled.
If it's not, you will not be able to have a conditional start.
