Hi ladies and gents,
I'm new to this beautiful platform, so lot's of had banging 🙂 Especially with the following:
I'm trying to create a flow that adds items to a SharePoint list. The list has two columns, a groupName (string) column and Approvers (User or Group) column. I'm trying to populate this using an array (parsed from JSON). Some of the items have multiple approvers, these are separated with semicolons. What I want to do next is;
for each ArrayItem in array,
IF arrayItem.approvers contains ';' {split the approvers then create sharepoint item}
But I'm getting the weirdest error:
Doesn't make sense to me. The flow itself looks like this at the moment:
What should I be looking at to get this going? And is this the right approach at all? Help a noob out 🙂
hello,
this nice & simple solution seems to fail with the @ character .... When i enter that '@' in the dedicated aread .... that character start to duplicate randomly (nothing to do with my keyboard ;-)) , and if by chance i managed to get only one character being set ... it gets duplicated as i press "Save" ... Can you observe/reproduce the same ? Thanks.
Hi!
i have a question, how do I add more caracters ? Do I just add ,(";"),("/") etc.. ?
Hi @v-litu-msft , Thanks foe your reply. I'll give that a try and see if it helps me further. I'll get reply with feedback.
Hi @Earthling87,
If you want to determine a string if contains ";", there are two methods of setting for the Condition action, one is use Contains() function, then put the bool value true to the right side:
Share
Report
All responses (
Answers (contains('This is a string contains ;',';')
The other way is put that string into the left side of Condition action directly, then put the ";" to the right side, and condition select "contains":
