MSList to Excel transfer error for the position "Owner"

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 7

Hello all,

I have created a fully functional flow in which I regularly filter an MSList according to a certain date range and transfer it to Excel.

However, in my MSList there is also a column in which an Outlook contact is stored.

When transferring this column, I had to write my dynamic content "Owner (Outlook)" in quotation marks in the action "Select" and the field "Card", instead of selecting it without quotation marks like all the others, otherwise my flow fails. (See also image)

 

But now it shows me all data of this person in the excel, incl. mail, name, position .... - See also the following output:

 

[{"@odata.type":"#Microsoft.Azure.Connectors.SharePoint.SPListExpandedUser","Claims":"i:0#.f|membership|Mailadress","DisplayName":"Name","Email":"Mailadress","Picture":"Userphotoadress","Department":"Department","JobTitle":"Position"}]"

 

How do I restrict the output of the personal data to output only the name to me?

 

Thanks in advance,

Dani

    Hi @DanielH1,

    Do you want to only keep the Name of the Person filed in the Select?

     

    Here is a simple demo for your reference, you just need to select the DisplayName parameter of the Person field:

    I can't choose another possition in this outlook contact 😕 

    Can I change some "Actions" befor, that it will be showed?

     

    Thanks,

    DAniel

    Hi @DanielH1,

    Does this Owner (Outlook) allow multi select?

    Could you please go to your column settings and check if it allows multi select?

    If so, please try the following method:

    Hello, thank you for your answer.

     

    My misstake was, that I had a multiselect. And I don't want mor then one contact. So now it is only one contact allowed and now your first answer works.

     

    Thank you a lot for your solution.

     

    Greetings,

    Dani
