Hello,

I am trying to get the business phones from Office 365 and return a list on SharePoint.

I would like to filter out those users without business phone.

Example of the output of 'Search for users (V2)' (no BusinessPhones):
{
                "Id": "123",
                "AccountEnabled": true,
                "BusinessPhones": [],
                "Department": "abc",
                "DisplayName": "abc",
                "Mail": "abc@mail.com",
                "MailNickname": "abc",
                "UserPrincipalName": "abc@mail.com"
}

I tried different methods including the action 'Condition' and 'Filter Array' with the expressions but failed:
e.g.
@not(empty(outputs('search_for_users_(V2)')?['body/businessPhones']))
@not(equals(outputs('search_for_users_(V2)')?['body/businessPhones'], null))
@not(equals(empty(outputs('search_for_users_(V2)')?['body/businessPhones']),true))
@not(equals(outputs('search_for_users_(V2)')?['body/businessPhones'])?[0], null))

Moreover, I would also like to display the business phones in string instead of array.
Current display in SharePoint List: ["1234 5678"] (same as the output of 'get user profile')
Idel display: 1234 5678

How can I solve the above problems? Many thanks.

Filter empty BusinessPhones and change BusinessPhones to string

1. You need to change the condition as

Apply to each

outputs('search_for_users_(V2)')?['body/value']

after that, add the condition action with expression

not(empty(item()?['BusinessPhones']))

2. And to get a string from BusinessPhones array, you will have to iterate the BusinessPhones array and append to one string variable and then directly add that variable to SharePoint list field

Filter empty BusinessPhones and change BusinessPhones to string

Thanks @alpa Mahesh Dhola . It probably because I did not put a loop before I use the empty function.

Here's how I solve the problem finally. I put the actions after 'get user profile' instead of 'search for user (V2)'.

1. Change BusinessPhones to string

Add a ’Compose' action to return the first item in the BusinessPhones array.

2. Filter empty BusinessPhones

After 'Compose', add conditions.
