Use PowerAutomate to pull a data from another existing existing list

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Scenario:

I have 2 existing lists, SourceList and TargetList, using PowerAutomate, how can I manage to pull data from the SourceList when a new item is created in the TargetList.

- The output I'm trying to achieve is similar to a vlookup function of excel.

- In TargetList, I have a column with choices, and based on the value of this column I would like PowerAutomate to get items from the SourceList and update another column in the TargetList.

SourceList Columns:

SourceCategory TestData1 TestData2
CategoryData1 Data1Value Data2Value

TargetList Columns:

TargetCategory TestData1

TestData2

CategoryData1 (I want this to be filled automatically, if the TargetCategory value, submitted by the user, matches with the SourceCategory value) (I want this to be filled automatically, if the TargetCategory value, submitted by the user, matches with the SourceCategory value)

Would appreciate any help!
