Writing none duplicate rows only from excel to sharepoint list

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 31

Hi,

 

Currently I have a flow following the below:

 

For a selected file

Get file properties only

Apply to each // List rows present in a table

Apply to each // Create item

 

As a means to drop an excel file into a sharepoint document library, select it and write the contents to a sharepoint list.

 

Is there a way to do the same, but account for duplicate lines?  I presume maybe the ID column may prevent this but unsure.

 

For example if the table was days of the week and day names (1/Monday, 2/Tuesday etc).  If I were to upload Monday through Wednesday first, then a second file of the full week - it would read the initial list and only write Thursday onwards - or is this too intensive to run realistically on <2k rows
