joining values from an array into a single excel cell

Posted on by 49 Season of Giving Solutions 2025
I have a flow containing an array of claim records and have filtered the array to group these records by member id (second image). I need to enter the grouped records into a row in an excel table but this requires me to join the values of the items in the filter array. i.e. If the filtered array contains 3 items I need to put all 3 meeting dates into one cell.
 
The report should look something like this:
 
 
How do I do this?

    Hello,
     
    You can first extract the meeting dates from the filtered array where you filter using meeting ID and then use join to make it single entry.
    Use Select to extract only the dates
    1. Add Select

    From :body('Filter_array')

    Map
    Key Value
    Date item()?['MeetingDate']

    Output becomes: [
    "01/02/2026",
    "15/02/2026",
    "01/03/2026"
    ]

    2 . Join the array into a string
    Add Compose (or directly inside Excel step)
    Expression:
    join(body('Select'), ', ')
     
    Result:
     
    01/02/2026, 15/02/2026, 01/03/2026
    You can also use: join(body('Select'), '\n')
    to place them on separate lines in one Excel cell.

    Hope this helps
     
    Thank you.
