[Vikas Singh]

I have a case where I am assigning the stateflow in viewmodel to the usecase stateflow like below
class TestModel: ViewModel() {
private var discoverTag = MutableStateFlow(false)

fun initiate(){
viewModelScope.launch {

discoverTag = usecase.tag
}
}

Where tag is stateflow in usecase which emits the value
The problem here is that the discover tag is only collected for the first time but not when emitted from usecase

I’m guessing this is because you have two different flows that can be referenced here. You are initializing discoverTag to a MutableStateFlow instance and then in initiate you are reassigning it to reference usecase.tag . If you are calling discoverTag.collect before initiate is called then you are collecting on that first MutableStateFlow and not on usecase.tag .
