Flow Approval Adaptive Cards Repeating tables

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 467

Hello,

Is it possible for the approval adaptive card to display a true repeating table?  I understand and have verified its not possible to inject a html table however I am curious if anyone has been able to get the supported tables found here

to actually function as a repeating table, examples send 10 line items from a purchase req, or expense report, etc.  We have also built some custom adaptive cards using the adaptive card designer with column sets and text blocks which allow you to insert dynamic fields.  The results seem that these tables don't understand the concept of repeating and work fine for inserting a single value, at least this is what our testing has shown.

The closest we have come to implementing repeating line items is displayed in the image.  It's not a table however an array reconstructed into a string using a variety of compose actions, concat, etc.  It's quite a few steps and I am wondering if it’s simply not possible to use a true repeating table in some type of way within flow.  Assuming there is a way to use a repeating table within the adaptive card it's hard to imagine there is even enough screen real-estate within that tiny card to display a few columns and their full names.

Any feedback is appreciated
