How to Automatically Populate a Microsoft List Column Based on Data from Another List?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2
Hello,
 
Im struggling to pull some information and would love some help. 
 
I have a form that populates requests into my Microsoft list called 'IT Access Repository' lets call it List A. So when an application such as Figma is paired with Access Type Read-Write, I'd like it to pull from my List B Approver List 'AD Access' (secAPP_Figma_Editor) to populate List A's AddAdGroup
 
 
 
Hope I've explained it well
Thanks in advance

    I think I know what you're asking to do. You can achieve this using Power Automate by creating a flow that triggers when a new item is added to List A. Here’s a step-by-step approach:
    • Trigger: Set up a trigger for when a new item is created in List A (IT Access Repository).
    • Condition: Add a condition to check if the application is Figma and the Access Type is Read-Write.
    • Get Items: Use the “Get items” action to retrieve the relevant approver from List B (Approver List ‘AD Access’). Filter the items to match secAPP_Figma_Editor.
    • Update Item: Use the “Update item” action to update the AddAdGroup field in List A with the approver information from List B.
    If this isn't what you need, please rephrase your post and add an image that can be read. The current image is so blurry it is nearly useless.
