Maintain username from multiple lines of text entry in sharepoint list

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

I have an automated flow which takes inputs from one SP list and updates column entries for matching items in another SP list. Multiple entries from List A are summarized in a single field (multiple lines of text) in List B. I believe because i am the owner of the automated flow, it uses my name and not the person who inputs into List A. I would like to maintain the name of the user who made the entry in List A. Is there a way to do this in power automate?

 

I previously asked the question in to see if it is possible to remove the username stamp in sharepoint list so I could simply create a variable in my automated flow to re-create the username stamp. It sounds like that is not feasible.
