Show Column Display Names in a Track SharePoint Column Changes Flow

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by CatalinaBP 86

Hi.  I'm building a flow to track column changes in SharePoint, following @Reza's video.

 

It all works great, except I'd like the notification email to show the column display names instead of the column names.

 

I was told to use a select data operation action and map new column names, but I'm unsure how.  Attached is my Track Field list and Keys.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Catalina, 
     
    If you haven't dound the solution yet, I can help you. I was also following Reza's video and got the complex track changes solution implemented. 
     
    I used an initialize an object for Column Display Names and used that in the Append to HTML variable (
    variables('varColumnDisplayNames')[outputs('Columns_that_have_changed')?[variables('varIndex')]])
     
     
     
    Let me know if this helps. Else I am happy to go in detail and explain each step. 
     
    PS: I also used a condition to exclude versions 1.0 to 3.0 (as the system first creates the items and uses the next version to add attachments) and filtered trigger condition to exclude the service account.
