Creating a new record in Dataverse

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 18

Hi all,

I am building a flow. A Microsoft Form is filled in and when the user press "send" button the flow is triggered. And data is inserted in a existing table in the Dataverse. This is working but..... I am facing the following:

  • When building the flow and the action "Create a new record" in the Dataverse I can see a list of elements of the table but I cannot see all. Due to whatever reason I can only see some of them, so I can fill from the form part of the fields.

  • Additionally, in the "Create a new record" box for few of the visible items, I cannot insert a personalized value, while for the rest of them there are no issue.

Any help or light you can bring here will be much appreciated!

Regards

Manuel

    Hi Manuels,

     

    What connection are you using? Common Data Service or Common Data Service (Current Environment)?

    Try to use Common Data Service (Current Environment).

     

    I hope it helps you.

    Thanks for your help,

     

    your reply has solved part of the problem. Actually the second bullet.

     

    I am still in trouble with the first one. The elements I cannot see are actually are the ones whose Data Type is "choices"... Do you know how this could be solved?

     

    Thanks!

    Hi @ManuelS 

     

    Most likely the issue is with data types. You might be mapping a numeric data types (Dataverse) from Forms. Try to add a compose above the create a new row step. Place the cursor under dynamic properties. You should be able to see all the properties from Forms. So to map to Dataverse you need to use PowerAutomate expressions such as int() or related data conversions.

    Thanks @abm for your reply,

     

    I am afraid I am not following you... (probably due to I am too novice here...) Below is the "Create a new record" action. All the elements below are majority of the columns of the table in Dataverse. So from your explanation above, I do not know what do you mean or what should I do.

    If you can provide me some more details will be much appreciated.

     

    Thanks

    Hi @ManuelS 

     

    I was under the impression that you can't see all the Dynamic properties of your Form submissions. Looks like what you are after is not seeing all the columns names from your Dataverse table. In that case could you please check whether the field level securities are enabled or not?

    Hi @ManuelS 

     

    You need to use current environment connector (CDS/Dataverse) inorder to see the option set field names.

     

    Thanks
