I have a workflow conditioned to fire when a group’s boolean custom state=no.

But it’s being triggered when that custom state’s value is null.

Is this by design?

Thank you!

There is no “empty” when it comes to true/false with bubble… Empty = false.

I suspected as much. I’ve just gotten myself into a logic trap as I rely on “ignore empty values” to return different versions of a repeating list from only one search. Guess I’ll figure that out in v1.5 😕

I could test it again to see if it was ever fixed (doubt it) but I had this issue: [How to Sort Yes / no (Bool) type on Repeation Groupe - #2 by tylerboodman](http://forum.bubble.io/t/how-to-sort-yes-no-bool-type-on-repeation-groupe/236202/2)
