Update Item Action Not Updating SharePoint List

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5,331 Moderator

I am trying to write an update item flow.

Currently, the column 'Job_Name' in the Get items (SharePoint List) is empty.
I want to use the update action to add the job name content to the existing
items.

I am pulling data from an Excel Workbook and a SharePoint List.

All of the data is coming in, the Condition is matching and returning 'true' where the items match.

However, the update item action is failing.

Where did I go wrong, what am I missing?

Apply to each value: outputs('Get items')?['body/value']

 

                  Get items                                         Excel
Condition: Output(body('Select_2') is equal to Output(body('Select')

I am trying to update ONLY the 'Job Name' - the property of which has:
     items('Apply_to_each')?['Job_Name']
