List showing count of categorised entries in a different list

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,

 

I feel like this should be straightforward but I'm struggling!

 

I have a SharePoint list acting as a service desk, and I'm trying to use PowerAutomate to populate a separate list with a count of how many entries from the service desk are in each category. The 'count' list is then feeding a SharePoint site quickpart pie chart.

 

E.g. service desk:

 

Issue 1 - Plumbing

Issue 2 - Electrical

Issue 3 - Plumbing

Issue 4 - HVAC

Issue 5 - Electrical

 

Count list:

 

Plumbing - 2

Electrical - 2

HVAC - 1

 

Do I need a filtered 'Get Items' for each category or something? How do I map these to different rows of the Count list?

 

Thanks,
Jamie

    Hi @jamiem4 

     

    You can refer the logic mentioned in one of my previous solutions to get count of each category:
