Need help with creating a single column with uniques values from 3 columns from the same SharePoint list

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello all, 

 

I am trying to learn data operations in Power Automate, but got stuck with the task to create a single column with unique values from columns from the same SharePoint list. 

 

This is my Sharepoint list structure in its simplest form:

 

id | team_member 1 | team_member 2 | team_member 3 |
1 | A | B | C |
2 | D | A | B |

 

 
This is my Sharepoint list "to be" structure:

 

id | team_members |
1 | A | 
2 | D | 
1 | B |
1 | C |
2 | A |
2 | B |

 



Is it possible to achieve such objective with Power Automate? Would sincerely appreciate an advice since I don't know where to start..

    Hi @Anonymous 

    Will the formatting for your source always be constant / never-changing? Are these headers and the spacing ever going to change? This data is coming from an SP list right?

    id | team_member 1 | team_member 2 | team_member 3 |

    As long the spacing and your template won't change I could most likely give you a solution.

    Hi @Amanthaper ,

    Thank you for your response!

     

    The spacing and the template won't change, and the data source would be an SP list.. Have you done similar data operations?

    Managed to find solution using multiple conditions to check different values of columns.
