Hi there!,
 
I'm trying to make a flow to read tables constantly. The problem I found is that in the parameter "File" cannot enter data from previous step. I mean, if select manually the File then I can get an option in the Table parameter
 
In the previous image I'm using a fix value and can get a response in the Table parameter.
 
But when I try to use a "previous value" in the File parameter, in the Table parameter just can't get a value and can't proceed with the flow.

    The idea of @trice602 was pretty useful to find a primary solution. It didn't work to write as custom value "Table1", but checking up the output from Get Tables, I noticed the form in that Power Automate call the table of interest. I just copy that to call the table. I share a couple of pictures.
     
    First, I ran a test using fixed values and so I could read the ID Power Automate use to call the table in the Get Tables output. Then I just write that ID. However, I think this solution just works if you read one table at the time.

    Hi,
     
    You can use the Enter custom value and enter Table1.
