Forms - Flow is not getting response data from the form

Posted on by BF-04121420-0

I have a flow which is triggered by a new form submission, the information from this submission then fills a table in an excel spreadsheet.

The information in the first form submission is then emailed to certain parties for approval. The email that is autogenerated & sent by automation has a link to another form in it, that form asks the party if they would like to accept or reject the first forms submission.

Sofar this has all worked except I cant get the 2nd "get response details" to pull the outputs from the approval form. Ultimately I would like for the approval form to then update another table beside the first table in the excel spreadsheet with the information provided.. column for "X Party Approval" , column for "Y Party Approval" & a code column, all of which is data gathered from the second form emailed out to those parties after the first form has been submitted.

I have tried everything but is this just a limitation of a flow? I cant incorporate various forms into one flow?

The problem is that there is no way to get the Response ID for the second form without using the When a Response is submitted trigger. You need that specific Response ID to retrieve the Response. Its a bit more difficult to do but you might want to replace the second form with an adaptive card. The only other possibility is to build a second flow with a trigger for the second form. But then you have the problem of figuring out how to relate the second submission to the earlier submission.

Ok, thank you.. can I add multiple triggers after the first starting trigger into the same flow?
