Hi,
I didn't manage to get the field values of an Entity Record (apart from the Record ID ) from a flow triggered by its deletion.
How can I get all its field values ?
Thanks
Arioule
Hi @Arioule,
Quick answer is unfortunately you can't in a Power Automate flow for that event. You would need to create a plugin on the delete event and register a pre image to the plugin step to reference the field values.
It would be good feature to have, I suggest to submit the idea at: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Apps-Ideas/idb-p/PowerAppsIdeas
Hope this helps...
Hi @EricRegnier,
Thanks,
It seems like an obvious feature that should be there.
FWIW the way we handled this was by creating a Workflow to automatically create a new record in another entity, and then use the creation of that record as the trigger for Power Automate.
Hi everyone,
I know this is a bit late response, but maybe it can help others who encounter this problem and find this post.
There is a bit simpler solution than writing plugins and more logic, the only thing you need is to enable audit on the environment and then after the trigger use an action to retrieve the audit logs, you can find more detailed information how to in a blogpost written by my colleague Power Automate Delete Trigger - Missing record values - NETWORG | Blog (thenetw.org)
Hope it helps someone
I would argue it's more complex with more steps with oData calls and parsing json especially for citizen developers but indeed it's a low code approach is plugins is not an option. Thanks for supplementing @ZdenekSrejber!
