Update Environment Variable through Cloud Flow

Posted on by PranavPh

Hi All,

I have created a solution and set an environment variable called ErrorDate.

I'm reading a text file in the flow and if the date in text file is greater than the one in environment variable, I want to update the value in environment variable(with the one from the file) and save it. So when the flow runs next time, it uses the last saved date. value. How can I do that?

In the flow I set the variable like this and then updated it based on the logic

But it doesn't seem to update/point to the actual environment variable value? Like in the Set Variable I'm writing the variable name(but its just creating a variable in flow with same name). Somehow I want to point it to the environment variable and update that one but not sure how to do it?

Can someone help? Thanks! 🙂

Hi @PranavPh ,

The action 'set variable' just set the value of the temp variable in flow.

Actually, the values of environment variables are saved in database Dataverse.
