Correctly enter data from Sharpoint list in Excel table

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 91

I would like to append data for evaluation from a sharpoin list as a row in an excel table once a month:

 

Example:
If the data from June is to be evaluated, I have the key 6 in the excel table
July = 7
August = 8 etc.

How do I automatically get the corresponding column of the month in the flow to select the correct key in the Excel table and insert the data in the correct column for June, for example?

In my flow I have entered the key 5 for the month May.

 

The flow should automatically recognize which month is selected.

The Key column in Sharpoint is a calculating column.

 

I have no approach to solve this. I do not write good English

    Hi @TomTT 

     

    Are you trying to convert a date into a number for that month?

     

    May = 5

    formatdatetime(utcnow(),'MM') = 05
    formatdatetime('05/12/2021','MM') = 05
    replace(formatdatetime(utcnow(),'MM'),'0','') = 5
