Posted on by 20

Hello All,

 

Hope your doing well....

am following the power automation training course in that tried to do recurrence flow by using "Reading OneDrive business excel file data.".

I am not able to get the table values dynamically even after following the document.
Doc link:  Exercise - Create recurring flows - Training | Microsoft Learn

Can anyone of you please check and help me out on this.

    Hi @Amin403,

    Please try to delete the ‘List rows present in a table’ control, then add this control, and then select Table.

    Hi @Amin403 ,

    I guess you insert the table in the Excel file when creating Flow (the table in Excel is inserted before creating Flow), so Flow did not detect the table you just inserted.

    I suggest you delete the 'List Rows Present In a table ', and re -add the' list rows present in a table 'control to achieve synchronous update of data sources and Flow.
    In this way, the table you created will be detected by Flow.

    Hello @v-yetonggu-msft ,

     

    No, the data table in the excel exists previously am using the old file, which is already exists in OneDrive, though it is not showing.
    Had refreshed both one drive and power automate flow couple of times still no luck, had tried to change the data in the excel as well still no dynamic table content is available.
    am sure am following as per the document
    link: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/get-started-flows/6-flow-scheduled-flows

    not sure why it is not working for me😑

    Hi @Amin403 ,

    Please create a new Flow and add only one 'get tables' control to see if you can get the information of the table.

    Hello @v-yetonggu-msft ,

    Had tried the same below is the result I see the flow get succeed but the output data is not like your flow.

    Amin403_0-1703499901563.png


    and I see one main difference is in your flow it is showing only the file name whereas in my flow it is showing entire its location path.

     

    Thanks,

    Amin Shaik.

    Hi @Amin403 ,

    Please find the id title in the 'Get tables' control, copy the id content, and fill in the table's id into the 'list rows present in a table' control.

    Hello @v-yetonggu-msft ,

     

    I am not able to find the ID type in my resulted output body.

    But I can see my flow ran successfully.

    Double check that you have a table in the Excel file.  If you open the file in Excel and place your cursor in the table you should see a 'Table Design' menu tab that will show you the name of the table.
