Format Data by Examples is Missing in Classic Designer

Posted on by Christopher Clark

I've noticed over the last few weeks that the format data by examples is missing in classic designer and it's starting to impact my work. I don't see in the documentation for this feature that it's been retired. Everything online indicates that it's either a new designer issue or a screen resolution/zooming issue. Neither of those apply to me. I'm using Edge zoomed at 100 in classic designer. I read through each of the expressions to make sure this feature hasn't moved but I'm still unable to find it. Where has the format data by examples feature gone? It shows in none of my flows, including brand new ones.

This capability was replaced in the new designer by using Copilot. I can verify that it no longer appears in the Legacy designer. I suspect some upgrade to the new designer caused it to disappear from the legacy designer too. Since the legacy designer is deprecated I don't think you will see any effort made to bring it back. We are all being pushed to move to the new designer.

@Pstork1 Thanks for the response. I honestly tried to use that but without the prompts was unsuccessful. Do you have any tricks for using it like the old format by example was set up ie "input x output y"?

I fed it my inputs and my desired outputs and all I got was an expression that didn't work.
