Hi @KT61 ,

For the Choices column value, you can use below expression as dynamic content to populate Excel table:

triggerOutputs()?[‘body/Area@OData.Community.Display.V1.FormattedValue']

or

triggerOutputs()?[‘body/Area_label']

For the date time values to populate in Excel Date column, please refer to below blog:

Power Automate: Convert Date to Excel Number - Manuel T. Gomes (manueltgomes.com)

add(div(sub(ticks(triggerBody()['Start Dime']),ticks('1900-01-01T00:00:00Z')),864000000000),1)

Best regards,

Hi @KT61 ,

Sorry I was using a wrong symbol in the expression.

triggerOutputs()?['body/Area@OData.Community.Display.V1.FormattedValue']

or

triggerOutputs()?['body/Area_label']

Hi @KT61 ,

Please check in run history and see outputs of the trigger, you can find the exact name of where the choice value comes from.

The expression on my end is

triggerOutputs()?['body/_crba2_type_label']

change it based on the name on your end.

Best regards,

Hi @KT61 ,

You need to check outputs of the trigger instead of this action.

Thanks, for the converting time formula, where do I put this in my flow? or do I create a manual trigger flow like in the blog, but then where do I put it?
