Flow Overwrites old data

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

Hi,

 

I have created a Flow which looks for the email and save the attachment to Sharepoint Online Folder.

 

I get monthly reports with the same data structure but I want the data to be appended month to month so I can creat a Power Bi report.

    Sorry for the late reply: 

    This what happens: I have a scheduled report when the report is generated the flow looks at the email and then saves the attachment in the Sharepoint folder. 

    This works perfect but the only problem is it overwrites the data. 

    So when I try to create a report in Power BI I only one month's worth of data and no historical data.

    Hi @m412 ,

     

    You need to share the screenshot of the configuration of the flow so we could better understand the issue and provide the proper workaround.

     

    Best Regards,

    Alice
