Hi Everyone,

 

I have created a Power Automate flow where Trigger is  "New Item Created or Modified in Sharepoint list".

Sharepoint list Site address and List is fetched from Environment variable.

Because of this Dynamics content is not getting populated.

 

I have to retrieve the "Modified By" field value which I am unable to because of unavailability of Dynamic content.

I tried "triggerOutputs()?['body/Editor/DisplayName']" but this doesn't work as it is not recognized as Sharepoint Field

I have referred another flow (created by someone else) there they are able to fetch "ID" value using similar method and it is also recognized as Sharepoint field.

 

Let me know what I am missing.

Kindly refer the screenshot where I have highlighted triggeroutput syntax

    There are two ways you can enter a formula expression in Power Automate.

    1. As text, like you are doing now. You must surround your formula with and at-sign and curly brackets like so: @{triggerOutputs()?['body/Editor/DisplayName']}
    2. In the expression editor. Click on the "Expression" tab next to the "Dynamic content" tab and input your formula: triggerOutputs()?['body/Editor/DisplayName'].
