    Hi, 
     
    Power Automate typically works with column headers when dealing with tables, if you want to work with row headers, you might need to transform your data first. One way to do this is by using the Select action in Power Automate.

    This action can be used to transform the shape of objects in an array, for example, you can add, remove, or rename elements in each object in an array.

    Hope this helps. 
    Anthony.

    Does your "table"  only have a single record?  (that's basically what it is - a single element array)
