Create item with dynamic content writes a code in the column instead of a value.

I am using Create Item with dynamic content

and have a problem with one of the columns, "Supervisor". The dynamic content is "items('REQUESTS')?['SUPERVISOR']" but what happens is that some items have correct supervisors in the column, but some have a code written instead of a name, see the first two items below, showing a code instead of a name (as in the rows 3-6):

    Try populating the "Supervisor Claims" field instead of "Supervisor"

    Hi Sudeep,

    thanks for your reply. I don't think I am able to do that as the Supervisor column is of a "single line of text" type and I don't have "Supervisor claims" field in "create item" action.
    I have reduced the Concurrency Control to 1 as the higher Concurrency control had messed up my other flows previously. I'll see in the next couple of days if it fixes the problem (the flow runs daily).

    It didn't work but I fixed the problem. I had a wrong dynamic content call, I had "items('REQUESTS')?['Supervisor']" instead of items('REQUESTS')?['Supervisor']?['Value'].
