Lookup fields getting null values

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I have created a flow which will triggered from model driven app. This flow is creating a new record for the custom entity from the oppurtunity entity. Similar data field will get populated from this flow like account,contacts,owner etc. But when passing these lookup field variable to the create record block's fields the output I was getting null values for the lookup fields. The lookup field in oppurtunity record does contains the values.

 

Any help would be really appreciated.

 

Thank You

    Hi @v-alzhan-msft 

     

    I have update the flow. But I am adding screenshot of a dummy flow which is addressing the same issue.

     

    Flow:-

    in.png

    So this flow is getting the account lookup field value and setting its value to the string type variable. This flow using Dynamics connector and I have also tried using the CDS connector too.

     

    Output:-

    out.png

    When you look at output the variable contains null value. Provided the record on which I have ran the flow contains the value in the account lookup field.

     

    Thanks & Regards
