I put set column value to userID and for some reason it post a s ‘true’ instead of rowID ![Screenshot 2025-07-01 110538](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/2/b/2b189293f34ba19d16b76ba0155eb0e42ba232e7.png) ![Screenshot 2025-07-01 110300](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/e/8/e8aa1b52c158cd38a318bfc4b7da483070e8ad87.png) ---

There are no column headers in your second screen shot, so I can’t say for sure. But… if you want to set the value of the RowID in that column, why are you setting the UserID? ---

this is from enrollment table it captures the user ID of the user enrolling for the competition and competition ID of the competition ![Screenshot 2025-07-01 125924](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/0/1/0135d7f3d7f09d6d1a7b69c5d436a24089e81ef3.jpeg) you can see it worked fine till now. still cant figure out what went wrong ---

Are you using a stand-alone action, or a workflow? If the latter, I’d check the run log. That might provide some clues. ---

It only works when I disable ‘else’ but userID says true in the table instead of the ID ---

Find a run where the second condition was used. Then click on the curly brackets next to the set column values action. It will show you the data that was sent. It should look something like the below: ![CleanShot 2025-07-01 at 21.40.14@2x](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/e/4/e437d11b5f36e2b8cd14cbe2c69b04ab4c2cc744.png) ---

So I realized that, when I remove conditions, data gets posted correctly. Unfortunately I need conditions to do three things. 1. condition 1 for singles match 2. condition 2 for doubles match 3. prevent duplicate enrollment ![Screenshot 2025-07-01 173035](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/6/8/683f6c3df6dfede4c41c929f7bc4b1899f956d42.png) a condition as simple as this, throws up the same error ---

Check the Lookup CompetitionType column to make sure it’s referencing the right ID. Check for any trailing spaces as well in the box where you’re entering the ID. ---

In your Lookup CompetitionType column I see values such as “Singles Match Play” & “Doubles Match Play”, yet in your action condition you are trying to match a hard-coded UID value. What gives there? ---
