I have a flow that is working well.
The end result is an email to the user (used "Search for users (V2)" to get email address matching the display name).
However, I want to use the "Modified by" display name from the row in the Dataverse table, as part of my email body. When I get the email though, it shows a GUID and not the display name.
How do I get and use the Display Name for "Modified by" instead of the GUID?
SOLVED THIS ONE WITH SOME GOOGLING...
The "Modified by (Value)" property in Power Automate returns the GUID from the Dataverse table "Users".
So, to get the attributes like Full Name, Email, etc..., you have to do a couple preparatory steps earlier in the flow.
After my trigger action, I added the "Get a row by ID" action, and queried the "Users" table using the "Modified by (Value)" tag in the dynamic content library...
Then, in the email body, I was able to access all the attributes of that user, and select "Full Name"...
