Changing Planner "User ID" to "Display Name"

Posted on by huwrc 6

I am using a flow to update an excel spreadsheet whenever a new task is created, however it returned the assinged to user ID rather than the name. I have tried using a get user profile but hasn't worked. Also I need the bucket name instead of the bucket ID. Can anyone help with this?

    See this post for a solution to retrieving the display name of the assigned to user.

    To get the Bucket name, I believe that you'll need to loop through each bucket using Get buckets as explained in this post.
