I have an Excel Document that is imported via Microsoft Forms.
The Table Name is always changing, but there is only one table in the Document.
Is it possible to select the first Table without a Name?
Hi @Paulinfo ,
If you are able to identify the Excel file, you can use the 'Get tables' method, which returns an array with all tables inside the file:
Output:
As you always have only one table in the file, you can loop this array or use an expression to directly access it, without any filter operations to identify the table name in your 'List rows present in a table' action. Also, I recently wrote this blog post about the integration between Power Automate and Excel tables, which explores the use of 'Get tables' action: http://digitalmill.net/2023/07/17/integrating-power-automate-and-excel-tables/
Let me know if it works for you or if you need any additional help!

Thanks for the answer.I had now simply solved it with a script that renamed the table. So the name was always the same.
But your idea is better.
Hello Paulinfo,
Could you please kindly share the script? I have the same issue with you.
Thanks in advance
Hello,I have made the script with the automatic recording function of Excel.
