Concat full name

Hi,

 

I'm trying to understand what has to be done to concatenate two Dataverse fields in Power Automate flow. The task in my opinion is pretty trivial, it is to derive Full Name from the First Name and Last Name anytime when the row is updated. Though, I'm completely confused with googling results. There no clear explanations from docs what is rowid, odataid, how to work with trigerbody, should it be used at all and etc. My understanding  was that workflow should be straight forward. Update action, concat function with the fields values as parameters. Apparently, there are some tricky ways. I'm wondering if someone already faced the same uncertainty and  knows a good sample/article/explanation. 

Thank you!

    Hi @Andrew7345 ,

     

    You can use the concat() expression

     

    @concat(triggerOutputs()?['body/firstname'], ' ', triggerOutputs()?['body/lastname'])

    Hi @Andrew7345 ,

     

    There is usually a GUID or identifier for the record.

     

    You will need to use the List Rows and apply an odata filter to search for the row you want to update.   This will return the rows and ID.
