Setting Multiple Variables Coming From a Flow

Posted on by cm13

I'm using Power Automate to retrieve attributes from a JSON payload. I'm able to parse the payload into 5 variables:

I'm also able to set the variables and trigger the flow from a button in PowerApps:

I'm then using a formula to populate 5 textboxes with each variable:

This all works fine, and each variable populates in the correct textbox. The problem is it seems like I'm running the flow each time I'm setting a variable, which seems inefficient to me. Is there a way to set all the variables at once and then run the flow just once? I've tried with UpdateContext, using Set multiple times without calling the Flow, and neither seems to work.

try
setting the response in an object
Set(fullResponse, SomeFlow.Run())

The example flow:
Finds all user records whose City is "San Francisco" and populates employeesInSF with those records’ Email.
Loops through the record collection variable so that it can look at each individual user record. The loop copies the values of each item in employeesInSF to loopVariable.
For each iteration, assigns the user's Email to a collection variable that has a Data Type of Text.
When the loop ends, the flow sends an email to the users whose emails are now stored in emails_employeesInSF.

Estimados,

estoy tratando de realizar un flujo de aprobaciones con las siguientes variables, cada vez que se genera un formulario lleva los datos a una lista en sharepoint, cuando se genera un elemento en sharepoint la idea que genere un flujo de aprobacion del formulario.

las aprobaciones deben discriminar por usuario aprobador, ya que cada centro de costo tiene su aprobador, y asi continuar el flujo como se aprecia en el excel

Favor su apoyo
Saludos,
