Approval not showing info included about created Item

Posted on by 5

Good morning, 

I am having a lot of issues with trying to use dynamic content.  I am trying to create a flow that will start an approval, and when it is approved, I would like it to be added to a SharePoint calendar.  I have been following a video for help, but for whatever reason, it breaks immediately. 

So I restarted again, and just have the first step shown below.  How do I get the info of title, start date, end date, and link to item to show?

    @Jaime002 Have you tried using the Classic Designer instead? The New Designer still has a few bugs. I would recommend using the Classic Designer.

    Also, I would recommend using a manual trigger with a Get Item action while you are building and testing your flow out. This way you don't need to leave Power Automate to trigger your flow from SharePoint. 

     

    You can quickly trigger tests from Power Automate which will speed up your flow building process.

    Another tip: Insert your email address into the Assigned To field until you've confirmed the flow works as expected. I would also recommend adding a line of text into the Details field that confirms who the Approval will actually be sent to. This way you can confirm the dynamic content output.

    In the Classic Designer, the approval outputs the details as expected. 

     

    Hope this helps!
