Problems when transfering the info from a flow to another

Posted on by arthurdeandrade

Hi everyone,

I have a flow based on "when a new response is submitted" from Microsoft Forms, that on the end of it send a approval, and when approved, create a Sharepoint list with the data from the Forms, and send a mail to a specific person here in the company.
Until then It's working pretty well, but the problem is: I need to check when he replied the email, so i needed to create a separated new flow based on "when a new email arrives" because It's another trigger and we can't have two in one single flow but ok, after he replied, I need to check what sharepoint list item the execution this time is referring to, because I need to catch this items and insert in a Microsoft Planner task description.

The problem that I'm having is that I'm not able to continue from one flow to the other, because for example when I move on to update the description based on the sharepoint item, it runs on the entire list (see example image) I think I would have to use some ID system, but I couldn't do this, could someone help with a solution? if necessary I put more images of my flows Thank you very much, I've been trying to find a solution for this for days and I haven't been able to.

Hi @arthurdeandrade ,

Is it possible to include the SharePoint list item ID in somewhere of the Email, e.g., in the end of Subject. With this ID, when an Email is received, you can save the ID in an int variable (intVar) and for Get items action filter query set to ID eq intVar to get the specific item.

Best regards,

Hi @arthurdeandrade ,

You can add a special character before the ID number, e.g., a forward slash "/", then you will be able to get this ID via below function:

int(last(split(SubjectDynamicContent,'/')))

Then Filter query is easy:

ID eq variables('idSharepoint')

Best regards,
