How to use Get Records (Dynamics 365) inside Select Array ?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by praveencrm 20

Hey Guys,

 

I'm new to the flows. I trying to connect flow with Dynamics 365 data. I got stuck with below when I'm building,

 

If you see snaps below, in "Select" Array, the field Account# is Lookup type in Quote Entity. Currently It is returning value as GUID. I want to access the related entity data, which means Account Name. Is there any possibility to use Get Record operation inside Select Array or any other way to achieve this ?

 

Can see my full flow configuration in the below thread

    Hi @Praveenpk365 ,

     

    After querying the list records iterate the records in a loop. Then use the Get Record flow action. Use the combined results from list and get to construct the select array

    Hi @Praveenpk365 ,

     

    If you want to reference the field values in the lookup entity, using Select does not work.

    You could refer to the configuration below.

    • Use array variables to store the information you need instead of through Select.
    • Use Get record action to get the field value specified in the lookup entity.
    • Besides, If you want to filter records, you could add a condition above the Append to array action.
