    @JohnMserv- Here's what should be the outputs (in this test) for the 'Select'

    The only part I'm unsure about is your 'Select'. Check that the key pair for 'title' is equal to item()

    @ChrisMendoza I am not sure what is happening on my trigger. The checklist is still getting expanded.

    @JohnMserv- I think I understand the issue. I did not realize you had a multi-select question in your Form.

    Try the below:

    Initialize 3 variables; varArray value is the multi selected question from your Form

    Select from varArray; this is creating the formatting for the array needed to create checklist item(s) in your Planner task

    Apply to each, increment the unique 'id' number to use and addProperty will add to output from the Selectimage.png

    Add the properly formatted clean array

    Hi Chris,

     

    Thank you for your response. I've followed your instructions and seems to be working fine. One issue is, even if the the options are not selected on the form, they are still showing on checklist. For exam, Office365 is the only selected on the form, both Visio and PowerBI are still showing up on the list. How can I hide the items which are selected on the form?

    @JohnMserv-

    Here's the UI (left) and the Advanced Editor (right) way to get your 3 checklist items:

    Each item has an expression like:

    equals(outputs('Get_response_details')?['body/rd94477ef5f1443a5a637e37b98da3795'],'Visio')

    The result
