Hi,

I have a scenario, wherein a workflow email will be triggered to a person only when a field (of type person/group) from the list is updated with the person's name. 

Now I was trying to put a check condition to send the email only when the field is updated. 

Is it possible in SP2013 workflow please ?

Many thanks !

Regards

Hi Prajk,

As I understand, you want to email a person only when the field is updated.

You can do the following steps in SharePoint Designer.

• Go to your list, and create a helper column which has same column type with the field you need to check the updating.
• Open you site in SharePoint Designer and New workflow(Choose your List/Library).
• Create new variable to check whether the field is updated via comparing the helper column and the filed.
• Pick Send an Email to send email to the person.

For more detailed steps, please refer to the following link:

By the way, the link is a demo of SharePoint Designer 2010, it also works for SharePoint 2013 workflow.

Best Regards
