Flow fails to return data stored in SPO multi-line text column

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 2
Hi all,
 
I have built a flow that at some point uses a 'Get file (properties only)' action inside an 'Apply to each' loop step to get the metadata of a number of files stored in a Document Library in SharePoint.
 
Some of this data then gets sent in table format in an email (using a Select to format as table).
 
My problem is the flow returns null for two multi-line text columns (so the corresponding row in the table is blank).
 
I use:
 
item()?[MultiLineTextColumnName] to fetch the data from this column. While this approach works for any other column in my Documents Library, it doesn't work for these two particular columns.
 
Any explanations/fixes ideas?
 
Many thanks in advance,
Antonis
