    Create Data in Data verse from Excel using Power automate

    Hi Devikrishna, I have to collect the data to insert into a dataverse table picking them up from some columns of an excel table (that is not from all of them, there’s not correspondence 1:1 with the dataverse table fields).

    How can I do?

    Thank you very much

    Frank
