PoawrAppsID in flow results

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,

I’m new to the flow and power apps capabilities and will be happy to get assist with this issue i encountered:

I built a flow that get a form results and update it into an excel sheet.

the flow is ending successfully but when looking at the result it is not was quite what i was expecting.

1. on the excel one new column was added: "__PowerAppsId__" (I didn’t define it as part of my form or my flow)

2. this new row contains 465 rows with values and only after it my data showed.

 

other than data was ok, as expected, only it appears in line 465...

Not sure why it is happening and would appreciate your help.

 

Thanks in advance

Eyal

    Hi @ bangorkeith,

     

    Once you create a connection to an Excel table in microsoft flow,your table will create a  "__PowerAppsId__" column automatically, this is the ID for that row, that you can later specify the row in a Flow.

     

    You could refer to link below to learn more about the "__PowerAppsId__" column:

    Hi @v-yuazh-msft

    thanks for your reply.

    it helped a lot.

    i understood that the issue was becouse my inital table was with 450 empty rows and the flow just created the new row starting at 451.

     much appreciated.
