Adding Space between file name : Create file

Report

Posted on by Aashish

Hi All,

I am creating a file using Power Automate and the file name uses dynamic content.

I am trying to add space between the filename but not being successful. I am using the function :

concat(item()?['Employee Name-'],'__', item()?['Employee ID'],'.pdf')

I have also tried using blank between the '' and couple of other things but it is not working.

this should be a quick fix, i suppose. Could someone assist?

Hi @Aashish ,

Please try this:
concat(item()?['Employee Name-'],' ',item()?['Employee ID'],'.pdf')
If above expression doesn't work, please provide enough details in your next reply so that I can analyze the source of the problem for you.

Best regards,
Rimmon

Hi @v-mengmli-msft ,

I have already tried doing this as well.

All I am trying to do is export PDFs from PowerBI using power automate and rename each file form the employee name and ID dynamic contents.

The output file name do not have space between them , thus I am trying to add it.

Any other details you would require?

Hi @Aashish,
Are you using the Compose action to create the file name? I believe you need to do this as you are joining array and string item types.
Hope that helps,
