Hello everyone,
I have created Microsoft Form that when submitted some of information goes to Microsoft List 1 and some of information goes to Microsoft List 2. I have done that using Power Automate, using two different flows for transferring data from Form to List. All of that works fine but also unique ID is created in Microsoft List 1 when Form is submitted, and same unique ID needs to be created in Microsoft List 2, but I don't know how to create same unique ID in two different Microsoft Lists.
I will explain my problem in more detail.
1. There is flow that copys data from MS Form to MS List 1
2. There is flow that generates ID in MS List 1
After first two flows everything is great everything that i need is created in MS List 1
3. There is a flow that copys data from MS List 1 to MS List 2
and flow number 3 copies everything from MS List 1 to MS List 2 except generated ID from flow 2, but i need all that data from MS List 1 to be copied to MS List 2.
In your List2 add a new column called List1Id.
Next you have few options:
1. When you update the List2 you need to filter the records from List 1 to find the Id. Then update the new column id in List2.
2. If you can't filter the List 1 to get the id then combine the flow into one. After the List 1 create step you can always get the unique id of the record.
3. This might be the easiest option. Add a FormResponseId column in both lists List1 and List2. Then store the Form Reponse Id which is a unique id of the response.
