In dynamics 365 i have an application form within that application form i have a tab that i want the above fields to autopopulate when a record that has already been created has been edited. So for example, a user fills out the application form submits it then goes back to that application form and edits it now i want to autopopulate the fields i created (these fields are basically approval fields so they can enter why they updating the form ...

Hi @nz1 ,

In reviewing your post, it appears that you have the trigger all set up for when a user makes a change to a row(record) in your table(entity). The next step would be to “Add an action” of what you want to happen when an update is made to a row in this table. It sounds like you want to populate other fields(columns), if that’s the case you could use the Dataverse connector action to “Update a row” and set values you want to populate those fields to. The action would look like the image below:

I hope this helps!😊
