So I am creating a flow with the manual trigger option. I want to be able to add a drop-down list to select from. It is for purchase orders and we need to be able to have employees choose the vendor they will be at, what job it is for, etc. However I have noticed the drop down list does not have a way to sort all of the options for instance in alphabetical order. I am also unable to add a line somewhere in the middle in the list of options, only at the bottom. We had also tried looking into a way to be able to start typing what we are looking for so it can find it in the drop-down. The reason for this is because we have a long list of vendors and customers and our customer list changes frequently and we need to keep it up to date and easy for our employees to find. Does anyone know of a way to solve this or a better way to execute this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated - thank you!
Hi @Anonymous
Unfortunately Power Automate manual trigger have limited options and its not possible to have type and search via manual trigger. If you want to type and search then you looking for a custom web page implementation where uses can start typing and search/select the desired option. Once the option is selected you need to store this in a database or something so that Power Automate can trigger based on the create/update of the record.
Thanks
