How to use an automate flow to create relationships and lookup in Dataverse.

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Not sure if this goes into PowerApps, Power Automate or Dataverse.

I have 4 CSV files that contain my data. I upload all 4 CSV files to Dataverse creating 4 separate tables of 1000+ records each. I want to create relationships between the existing data in those tables. How would I begin to do that using a flow? I'm having trouble seeing the concept of the flow.

 

Thanks!

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    You could try to create a relationship between 2 tables.

    If you want to create a one to many relationship , you can create a lookup field in 'many' table.

    Thanks for the reply.
    Turns out the tables I'm importing have complicated relationships and lookups. I had MSFT person tell me the import CSV feature in Dynaimcs/Model App is great for more simple imports. I should use SSIS and Kingsway to do the import in my case. As long as you don't run a timed job Kingsway is free to use.
