Hi,

This seems like a really basic question and I can't seem to find how to do this via google could someone point me in the right direction. I'm creating a flow to get the user start/created date by calling the "Get user profile (V2)" . I can see the output JSON values I want.

How do I set the OUTOUT from "Get user profile (V2)" to a variable that I can use to update a list entry?

The createddatetime isn't a selectable value in the flow designed by default.

Thanks!

Good stuff. How would this work with pulling multiple list data in for the populate word?

For instance, I have a list called "leads". Within leads I have two lookups. One for a "contact" (simple list) and the other "company". Since there are only so many lookups I can have I wanted to pull city, state and zip from the "company" and "first name" and "last name" and "email" from contacts.

I'm new with variables, etc.
