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

Posted on by

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..

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

    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?

    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.
