Update and multiple a secondary list

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 19

Wondering if someone much smarter than myself can help me with this business problem...

 

Looking to connect two lists together. List A to hold sensitive data, List B to share the same data (minus the sensitive stuff) to a Power App. I'm having trouble finding the right conditions and code to make it so that when an item is updated or modified in List A, this updates in List B. Worth mentioning that the data I'm working with is already pre-determined and I've uploaded this to both lists so they're mirrored. 

 

I found this solution but I'm a bit stuck on the true values: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Power-Automate/Set-flow-to-copy-column-item-from-one-list-over-to-a-secondary/m-p/280780#M27531

 

If anyone could help me I'd be ever so grateful. The community has been really good to me in the past. Many thanks for taking the time to read my plight.

    Can you post a screen shot of what you have so far in your Flow?

    Is your intent only to copy over selected columns to the second list?

    They key to making this work is adding a column to the second list that contains the ID of the item in the first list.

    Hi Scott, 

     

    thank you for replying. This is what I have so far:

    I need any of the available columns with data in them in the main database to reflect in the secondary database using the ID as the unique identifier with the ability to update/modify or add new entries as and when in real time. I hope that makes sense 🙂
