Using the 'Add a row into a table' connector step, 

Location

File

Table   

 

There is nothing in Table - only 'No Items' and 'Enter custom value'

 

Any advice on this?

Thanks

    You need to create a table in the excel file and only then you will be able to see the table details in the Power Automate step.

     

    To create a table in your excel file, please follow the steps as shared below

    -> In your excel file, Go to insert menu and you will see option as table

    --> You need to make an area selection in your excel file before this step so that a table gets created for that selected area.

     

    Once the table is created you can then go to the Power Automate flow and check, now you will be able to see the table name in Power Automate flow.

    Thanks for this solution but I am facing one more problem.

    The table now has an empty row and when I add a row using power automate it adds the new row in 3rd row rather than 2nd row. can we fix this?
