Export to CSV -- new file for every export

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hello All,

Currently, I am able to export the gallery contents to a .csv file without any issues (using Flow). I have hardcoded the OneDrive path for the file creation. The file name is CSV.

I have the following requirements...

1) For each export, there should be a new file created

2) I should be able to parameterize the OneDrive path, so that, upon publishing my app to others, the export functionality should create the files for them in their respective One Drive folders.

Kindly advise if the above scenarios could be handled. Any inputs/suggestions are highly appreciated.

Thank you.

Regards,

Mahesh

Hi @Anonymous ,

Simply use "Ask in Power Apps for all parameters.

Start your file path "\folder1\folder2\ . . ." If the folder exists, it will be used otherwise it will be created. You will have to work out your file naming protocols for the new file each time - I generally use

Text(Now(),"hhmmss")

on the end of the file name.

Hi @WarrenBelz ,
Thanks for your response !
I have been able to sort out the file naming issue. Now for every export, a new file is now getting generated.
I am working on the generic folder setup. Once that is done, I should be able to accept your response as a solution.
Please give me some time for the same.

Regards,
Mahesh
