I have an entity with over 100 attributes / fields and I want to know which field caused the "When a row is updated" to fire. ie which attribute changed.

ChatGPT says use triggerOutputs()?['body/attributes'] bit that does not seem to work as it fails with the expression is null.

This is such a fundamental requirement I am surprised that I cannot find how to get the attribute / field which caused the flow to trigger.

Hi @NigelP ,

There is no out-of-the-box approach.

To find out the column whose value has changed, you need to turn on audit setting for the table.

You can find the version history of the item when using table 'Audit'. Then please compare whether the old value and the new value are consistent.

Hi @v-xiaochen-msft

With 100 attributes doing it this way would take a hell of a long time.

I will have to trigger on certain attributes (singly) and go that way I think.
