Add Dataverse rows (Choice Type) to Excel

Dear Experts,

 

Why my Dataverse choice column data is added as (number or ID) into the Excel?

I expect the output is my choices' names: Serial, Batch, N/A

My flow is as such:

    Dear @JAWL 

     

    Hope you are doing good.

     

    May i know how you prepared the excel. Did you export from Dataverse.

     

    Note: For Microsoft Flow we need Optionset Value to proceed the same

    Hi @rampprakash , I did not export from Dataverse to Excel. Just use Add rows to Excel in Power Automate.

    Hi @JAWL ,

     

    You are grabbing the value if you reference the Choice field like you did.  

    When you run the flow, look at the output of the prior step and you will see something like this for the Choice label vs. the Choice value:

    The trick on the export in flow is you need to grab the "label" vs. the value.  I did this in my example in a next step to set a String variable by doing the following to get the label value:

    triggerOutputs()?['body/_cr32a_costgroup_label']
     
    This then set my String correctly.
