Outlook and SharePoint information extraction

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by
Hello Everyone, 
 
I have a use case where I want to extract information from subject line of a meeting invite and update it to a SharePoint List. The format of the invite subject line will be as
 
QAR Call - MLT123456987 - ABC. Inc OR QAR Call - MLT987654123 - Consultant - DEF. Inc
 
I've followed the below process
  1. Added a trigger - When an event is added, updated or deleted (V3)
  2. Added compose action and given parameter  - match(triggerOutputs()?['body/subject'], 'MLT([0-9]+)')
  3. Added second compose action and given parameter - match(triggerOutputs()?['body/subject'], '(?<= - )[A-Za-z\s]+(?= - MLT)')
  4. Added third compose action and given parameter - match(triggerOutputs()?['body/subject'], '(?<= - )[A-Za-z\s.]+$')
  5. Added a create item action for SharePoint where the extracted values will be updated.
    • Under the advanced parameter I selected the name of columns in which I need the values to be updated and selected the dynamic content for all the three columns which is 
      • outputs('Compose_for_MLT_ID')
      • outputs('Service')
      • outputs('Compose_for_Name')
When I run the flow it is giving me the output in SharePoint list as: 
MLT ID Service Name
match(triggerOutputs()?['body/subject'], 'MLT([0-9]+)') match(triggerOutputs()?['body/subject'], '(?<= - )[A-Za-z\s]+(?= - MLT)') match(triggerOutputs()?['body/subject'], '(?<= - )[A-Za-z\s.]+$')
 
The output which is required is 
MLT ID Service Name
MLT123456987   ABC. Inc
MLT987654123 Consultant DEF. Inc
 
Could you please assist on how to get it done. 
 
Thank You in advance.
