    Hi @AkarshanSonkar 

     

    did not understand your requirement- did you meant that you need to run a specifc subflow based on subflow name you are passing as an argument ?

     

    Thanks & Regards,

    Okay!! Let me explain my Requirement:

    1. I have created an Excel reading flow that reads a particular cell value through a keyword.

    2. I want to make that sub-flow generic so that when I call that sub-flow with Custom keywords, it should return the value of that custom keyword from Excel.

    like is it possible to do so in Power Automate?

    or 

    is there any other approach to doing so, like reading and filtering all the values? Let me know but yeah in detail.

    thanks.

    You can add inputs to the trigger "Manually trigger a flow". These are used as input parameters for "Run a child flow".

    Hi @AkarshanSonkar 

     

    earlier i thought it was Power Automate Desktop question earlier- but was seemed to be cloud question.

     

    Coming to your question - to be more clear , you have an excel file where you are referencing each row using a column value, so when you input that column value as input to the flow - it should find some column value based on row where the searched value is present correct - seems to be simmilar question for lookup scenarios ?

     

    Thanks & Regards,
