How to use SharePoint update list item action with variables for site and list

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

Hi everyone,

 

I am currently working on a flow that updates a SharePoint list item. I would like to have a generic flow to facilitate the deployment to another environment.

 

When using variables for site address and list name, the action asks me for an Item property to describe my updates. You can see it in the image below:

Does someone know what is the format I should enter in this "Item" property?

 

Thanks for your help!

    @taupia_a - It should be a JSON Array of columns and values. Refer below...

    How do you do when your values are metadata or person or group column?
