Getting dynamic content from When an item or a file is modified SharePoint action

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 160

Hi guys! I'm looking into using a "When an item or a file is modified" SharePoint action. But when I connect a "Select" action below the "When an item or a file is modified" SharePoint action, I don't seem to be able to find the Dynamic Content of the "From" field of the "Select" action. This is illustrated in the below screenshot:

Did I miss anything? Any method or techniques are appreciated! Thanks!

    Hi @Del-Dev ,

     

    ‘When an item is modified’ returns a record (Object), and Select is an action used to process an array, so there are no recommended options for you to choose from in the dynamic content.

    Hi @v-bofeng-msft,

    So, is there a way to get around this? In this context, there is an excel file in my SharePoint and I would like to use the "Select" action to process an array from the excel file hosted in my SharePoint.

    Hi @Del-Dev ,

     

    If you want to process an array form the excel table you need to get the table first, please add a 'List rows present in a table' before add the select action.
