Trying to auto generate a request number to SharePoint List field

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 257

I'm trying to add a Request number that starts with SR800000000000000 and the SharePoint ID number (4 integers) is appended to this.

 

In other words, if my SharePoint item ID number is 3489 it would return SR8000000000000003489

 

I tried the following expression to no avail

 

add(triggerBody()?['ID'],800000000000000)

    Hi @F_Quint

     

    You should take a try with the concat() expression instead of the add(), the add() would require the parameters to be a mumber type however the SR800000000000000 is a string.

     

    Please make sure the Request number column should be with the Single line of text type and take a try with the below expression:

    concat('SR800000000000000',triggerBody()?['ID'])

     

    Best regards,

    Alice
