SharePoint List updates with Planner Assignments

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 32

Hi Helpful People! 

 

I was able to create a process using two flows:

 

1. A task is created in Planner which sends to a SharePoint List.

2. When the Task is marked complete, the SharePoint List is updated with who the task was assigned to.

 

In the end, this is not practical because it spits out the user ID of who was assigned. There are about 12 people on my team and I am hoping to have the list state the person's name as opposed to their 'user id'.

 

This is what my name comes out as:

Can someone recommend or point out a solution where I can somehow tweak this to update the list with ready-to-read names?

 

Thanks so much for the time and support!

    Hi @jwenzChubb ,

     

    Do you want to get the 'AssignTo' user's name instead of user id? If so, I've made a test for your reference:

    The Result:

    Best Regards,

    Why doesn't "Display Name" come up as dynamic content for me to use?
