Power Automate - selecting first row from Power BI dataset

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by sgiese123

Hi,

 

I've set up a Power Automate flow triggered by a button within Power BI, to export data to an established sharepoint, with the name as the current timestamp at the point of triggering the button. 

 

However I want to include an additional step so that the name of the file also includes the value of the first row in the 'PROJECTCODE' column. I've tried many different things but can't seem to get it to work.

 

Any ideas?

    If the filename isn't included in the trigger output I don't think it's easily accessible.
    Try a compose activity with outputs('On Power BI button clicked').

    Where is the file located?
