Hi! I have tried numerous solutions with the same concern but those does not seem to work in my case. Sharing what I intend to do:

I have a list with Choice column and I allow multiple items to be selected. Then I want to archive this list in the future copying the content from one list to another with the same column type but I am receiving the error shown in the screenshot. Can someone help? TYA

Hello @masanortakamoto ,

please follow these steps:

1. Initialize an Array variable:

2. Generate an "Apply to each" control: for each Multiple choice column value, append the Array variable using the following JSON:

{ "Value": "@{items('Apply_to_each')?['Value']}" }

3. Then, you'll be able to add the variable in the related field:

Please let me know if the issue is fixed.

I finally figured out based on your reply that I need to manually insert an apply to each instead of relying to the automatic apply to each. Everytime it gives me "current item" inside an apply to each and does not allow anything else. Thank you! my flow worked now.
