    When you create a flow that triggers from a row, you don't need to add that input there.
    You can use the Get Item action and use the dynamic content in the later steps.
     
     
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers!

    I've been trying to mark your reply as an answer yesterday however it just keeps on loading. Though I do not have issues with my internet connection. Is this an issue with the new Power Platform Community? or I am just the only one experiencing this?
    Really sorry about this.
