Flow - How to obtain specific info from a custom list

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello,

 

I'm building this automated e-mail approval process that would grant access for a requesting user.

 

The requesting user submits a request in the custom list form I created that would include their name, employee ID, request generated on and attachments (for proof of completed training).

 

My current flow:

When new item is created

<site>

<ListName>

|

Start and wait for approval

|

Apply to each + Condition

If no-

Send Email notifcation

<explaining why it was rejected>

If yes-

Send E-mail notification to person activating user's badge

To: <person activating>

Subject: <Grant access to *Dynamic* - Created by Displayname

Body:

*Dynamic* - Created by DisplayName has completed training please grant them access.

Their employee ID number is: [[What do I use here to get from the info from the form I made to only extract the Created By DisplayName's ID number?]]

|

Start and wait for approval

[[note: I'm doing this again because I want the person who grants the access permission to say they completed their part and to click this button to say it's done. I'm not sure if "start and wait for approval" is the appropriate flow here]]

|

If no = nothing

If Yes

|

Send e-mail to *dynamic* created by DisplayName

Subject: Badge Access Granted

 

 

I'm stuck on just trying to grab the info from a custom list that I created. I don't see what I can use in the dynamic content lists. 

Note: The custom list is acts like a ticketing system. You click "New+" at the top and fill in the info from the pop up and that request gets e-mailed to me for approval. As the question is above... I just need to somehow extract an item from the pop-up form to add to the e-mail.

 

What can I do?
