Hey everyone!
I have an app that has 3 photos that run through power automate and then provide a link back in powerapps. Sometimes that link does not make it into the Sharepoint page.
After a patch, how can I look up that exact item to check if the photo links are there? and if not re-patch them. It seems like it should be so simple. But my brain is not working today.
Thanks!!
Hi,
You should investigate why isn't the patch working the first time around. What you are suggesting sounds like a workaround not a solution.
Did you try using the Error function to figure out the root cause?
Error, IfError, IsError, and IsBlankOrError functions in Power Apps - Power Platform | Microsoft Learn
Sudeep is correct, you should provide error handling immediately after the Patch.
To find the exact item you just patched, first wrap the entire Patch() statement in a variable: UpdateContext({myPatchRecord:Patch(yourpatchcodehere)});
After a successful patch to SharePoint myPatchRecord will contain the record you just created.
You can then get the SharePoint record ID from: myPatchRecord.ID to do additional lookups etc.
