Is the plural name STILL the only way to work with Dataverse lookups?

Greetings, community. Does anyone know if there is ANY other way to work with Dataverse lookup columns in Power Automate aside from having to explicitly provide the plural name of a table and an identifier? Really hoping someone knows of an alternative as this is making working with the Dataverse rather tedious compared to other data stores out there.

    Hi @arpost ,

     

    I'm afraid there is no other ways to populate dataverse LookUp columns in a flow.

    Thanks for the reply, @v-jefferni. I was worried that's what I'd hear back. Appreciate your time, though.

     

    I've added this idea (💡idea link) for people to upvote as this is a significant sticking point (as the 40k+ views on this community post from almost 4 years ago about the same issue would suggest).
