Separating Comments into separate lines in response list.

Is it possible to separate comments made in an approval workflow into individual lines when writing back to a sharepoint list?

 

For example if a reviewer has more than one comment to be made in the Comment box received in their email, is there a way that when they response the Flow knows to make each comment a line item.

    Hi @katherinef1872 

     

    The comments are in an array so you can fetch them and parse each individual comment. Please check the "Responses" that contains all this information.

    Can you please check if and let me know if you have any questions?

    How do you fetch them and parse them individual to write back to a Sharepoint list. That is what I am struggling with.

    Hi @katherinef1872 

     

    In the example above, when the approval action is finalized all answers are in the "Response" object. Then the Loop is to fetch each individual answer. Here's how I did it for the same reason.
