Append text to existing text

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by SumanthDundi7 219

Hi,

I am using SharePoint list with PowerApps and Power Automate. 

One of the requirements is to append custom changes to existing text using Power Automate i.e., There is a multiline text field that needs to have text appended to existing text whenever the conditions are satisfied.

 

Any ideas?

 

Note: I would like to not use default version history in SharePoint that is available or even PowerApps. But just only PowerAutomate

    @SumanthDundi7 , You can use compose or string variable to append the new text to the multi line text field value (using concat function) and then update the output of the compose in Update Record action.

    Please accept it as solution and give thumbs up, if it works for you.
