Smartsheet connection

I thought this was an option, but I can't seem to get it to work.

I want to be able to add a comment into the row of the Smartsheet that was just modified by the input row feature in Flow.

Problem is the "Add discussion to a row" requires a row ID, but I'm only able to input Row number.

    After your "Insert Row" action for Smartsheet:

    1.) Add an "Initialize Variable" action.

    - Name: Whatever (I went with 'ROW_ID')

    - Type: 'String'

    - Value: Click the button to enter an expression and input outputs('Insert_row')?['body/result/id']

    (You could simply put this value in the next step, but I like having it as a variable now in case I need it elsewhere)

     

    2.) Add your "Add a discussion to a row" Smartsheet action

    - Add your "Sheet"

    - On "Row Id", click the button for adding dynamic content (the lightning bolt) and choose your ROW_ID variable you created.

    - Do whatever you need for Title and Text.

     

    That should be it... 

    This was so ridiculously painful to figure out that I created an account just to answer this in case anyone else tries to fine a clearly defined solution.
