How to copy SharePoint Online list items to another SharePoint list based on unique items

(0) ShareShare

Hi Team,

I am trying to copy SharePoint Online list items to another SharePoint list based on unique items.

This original list is saving Microsoft message center major service update items in a list & looks like this:

These data are fetched from Graph API & saved in this SharePoint list. But these messages have lot of update messages & hence there are lots & lots of duplicates. I am trying to copy all items from this original list to another SharePoint list, based on Unique value items.

I am trying to build a flow but got stuck here:

From the list, I am trying to target the Title items, which are the message numbers & trying to find the unique items from the Array, using union() method, passing selected data:

After saving here, when I run it, I could see data collected.

I also tried removing other items, & select only Title column data to compare, like this

If I do this, it gives same issue, not able to satisfy the logic to create an item:

Where exactly am I going wrond? How to fix this?

Any help will be great.

 

Thanks

    The Title is the unique identifier and to select just the Titles values only, the Select action needs to be in text mode:
