Please help me figure out the origins of the blank rows of my Microsoft List.
I have been testing a Microsoft Automated Flow that reads data from a CSV. To begin with, the flow is supposed to try to find a corresponding match in the "Title" column (so that the Title in a row in the List matches the Title in a row in the CSV file). When this happens, the corresponding row in the List is updated with the row information in the CSV file.
Now, here is the problem, there are now blank rows in the LIST. I do not understand how this could happen. I have seen in the past a situation where a CSV file can have a blank row from a edit mistake in EXCEL. When this happens, if you edit the CSV file in a text editor, you will see a row of commas depicting a row of blank cells. But I checked each CSV file I have used in my tests and none of them have one of these rows.
So what is going on here and how can I fix it? What could be causing these blank rows in my List?
If the CSV file is opened in a text file, I can put the cursor on the line after the last line. Maybe there is an issue with representing the return character '/r'. But there is more.
I looked up another flow that I had worked on and found this:
This flow has a filter which takes the output from a previous step and filters out a line that equals to nothing.
But the flow I am wanting to apply this do does not have a previous step of converting the CSV to an array. The logic of my new flow is different.
Where can I insert logic where a blank line is ignored?
If I investigate this flow that has completed a run, I see this which is an indication that the new line was read into the flow:
if there is not a way to filter that out, there is the next line:
Please help.
