Power apps triggered flow to update SP list item

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 213

Hello, I am trying to build a flow that will replace a patch function I am using within power apps to update a SP record. 

 

The data i am sending to SP is in a form. The sample Identifier field is the unique field I am currently using to find and update the SP record with patch. 

 

The issue is that this does not always update the record. I need to send the same data through a flow to guarantee the record will be updated every time. I was reading another tutorial that assigned the data in the power apps for to a variable, then used those variables to update the record. However, when I try to do this, I am not able to use the variable as the unique ID.

I may be going about this all wrong. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hi @JWPowder 

     

    Id is a numeric value. What value you are passing here? If you don't have the Id for the update record the use the Get Items action step and set the filter query using the unique identifier of the record and find the internal Id for the update.

    Thanks

    Hey @abm , I can't believe I overlooked such a simple element. 

     

    This was able to get me going. Thank you!
