Getting Rows from multiple Datatables with a condition to create a new Datatable

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by MMC4

Hi all, 

 

I am struggling with finding a solution for this.

 

I have multiple ExcelData extracted from different excel sheet. What I want is to extract each rows which has "X" value in Column5 in each of my ExcelData to be inserted in a new excel sheet. 

 

So the goal is to create a new Excel sheet with only the rows which include that "X" value from all my ExcelData. 

 

I am not super accustomed to PAD yet, so pictures will be greatly appreciated for my comprehension!

    I would suggest reading your data from the different sheets via a SQL query to Excel. This will allow you to implement the filters into the query. See here for more reference on how to do that: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/how-to/sql-queries-excel

     

    Alternatively, you could simply loop through each of your table, check the value in the current row and write the rows one by one if they match your criteria.

    Hi @MMC4 

     

    Another way to filter the datatable would be to use linq queries. Latest update in power automate desktop helps to do that using Run .NET Script action.

     

    Refer the blog written by @LokeshBysani

    Hope it helps !

    Thanks & Regards,
