Update Items with Repeating Information

Posted on 22 Nov 2024 19:46:21 by
I could probably find help online but I'm not even sure what to call this.  

I have a column with items -- every item is different/unique. I want to replace all the existing column information with the same three repeating items. 

Can someone point me in the right direction or give me some guidance how I would use Power Automate to replace existing data with the repeating data. 
 
I've attached a visual to help illustrate what I want to do.  

Thank you,

    The image does not seem to be included with your post, and I am not sure what you're trying to do from your description. Try this:
    1. Create a string variable in your flow.
    2. For your three repeating items, append the values to the string variable using the Append to string variable action.
    3. You can use this expression at the end of each value to add a carriage return: decodeUriComponent('%0A')
    4. Use the variable to replace the existing data.
