Hi,

There are multiple ways to create arrays:

In Microsoft Power Automate, create an array using Initialize variable -- choose type Array--add values like ["A","B","C"].
You can also create it using an expression: createArray('11','12','13').
Also if you want to get it from SharePoint list or excel also use List Rows present in table and use SELECT and map column.
To use in condition, use Condition action check like: contains(variables('YourArray'), 'A').
If condition is true then do action, else execute different action based on whether value exists in array.

If I have answered your question, please mark it as the preferred solution ✅ . If you like my response, please give it a Thumbs Up 👍.
Regards,
Riyaz

Hi @Narayan_s,

What type of data you want to store in array? Here is the declaration of the array using Initialize Variable action.

Declaration of array with 5 integer values.

Declaration of array with 5 string values.

We can access item from array with this expresion in Compose Varaible:

variables('myArrayVar')[0]

Here is the output of first element of the Array variable "Power Apps"

If you can want to use condtion - here is one, that says if length of the array is greater than 4, do this or do that.

I am sure some clues I tried to give. If these clues help to resolve the issue brought you by here, please don't forget to check the box Does this answer your question? At the same time, I am pretty sure you have liked the response!
