Hi All,
I'm trying to build a flow that frequently creates a report in a CSV from data that is stored in a SharePoint list. The data for one column (Unit) is not stored in the same list that has the data, but in a separate list called SubUnits where the SubUnits are mapped against the Units, with both columns as text. Ideally I want to add an expression to the "Create CSV table" action, that will populate the UNIT column in the CSV:
Only way I would know how to do this is to create a for all loop, within it fetch items from the second list using the subunit field as an odata filter query.
Ofc it would be much nicer to not need a loop, so i hope someone knows a way ^^
Hi @Mira_Ghaly ,
The transaction list (used in the Get Items action):
Title (Text) | SubUnit (Text) | Etc. |
Transaction 1 |
London | |
Transaction 2 | Paris |
The SubUnits list (from which I need the Unit value, based on the value of the SubUnit):
Title (Text) | Unit (Text) | etc. |
London | UK | |
Paris | France | |
Manchester | UK |
In PowerApps I would use something like: LookUp(SubUnits,Title=ThisItem.SubUnit).Unit, but I don't know what the Power Automate expression equivalent for this is.
Can you please share a sample of your sharepoint list so I can try to replicate at my side?
