Hi, 

Current flow i'm attempting to extract an updated row's cell and paste it in another excel sheet's specific cell.

My flow stops at updating a row as it cannot find the ID of that row.

Any suggestions what i can do please?

    Hi @Infinity1 ,

     

    It looks like in the second sheet, it cannot find the column2 keyvalue "3".  Can you confirm your second sheet has "3" in column2 in table2 please?  Paste in your sheet if you can - will be helpful!  Always glad to help! Tom

    Hi @trice602,

     

    I understand now that this may be looking for a key value in Column 2. However, It will be Blank and only update according to what is entered in the first sheet from a specific row/column cell.

    In this instance, what what i do?

    Hi @Infinity1 ,

     

    Yes you can do this by using Power Automate Desktop Excel actions. Essentially you can find the first free row in a worksheet and paste in your data by column.  Works like a charm!  Please mark as a solution if this was helpful! Always glad to help! Tom
