    Hi @emornkui ,

     

    Outputs from your trigger is an array which contain many objects, and if you want to get data from these objects, you will have to split them and get data one by one. That's how "Apply to each" works.

     

    Refer to below link for more introduction:

    Use the apply to each action in Power Automate to loop through an array of items. (contains video) - Power Automate | Microsoft Learn

    Hi @v-wenjuan-msft 

    my problem was apply to each. I do not want the apply to each in my flow. How can I avoid this ? because if I get the related record from ID. Apply to each always input which I do not require.

    Many Thanks

    Emorn

    Hi @emornkui ,

     

    You can use "Filter array" action to get specific record by ID.
