No dynamic content

Hi, long-time listener, first time caller. Can someone help me with why dynamic content does not appear? The SharePoint I am connecting to I am an owner of. I tried Edge and Chrome but neither will get dynamic content.

 

Thank you!

    @ryeung You need an Apply to Each action to loop through all items returned from the Get Items action. 

     

    Take a look a this YT Tutorial I recently uploaded: 3 Mistakes YOU 🫵 are Making with the Apply to Each Action in your Microsoft Power Automate Flow

     

    In this video tutorial I’ll go over how to avoid these common mistakes when using the Apply to Each action in a Power Automate flow:

     

    1️⃣ Looping through a Single Item

    2️⃣ Creating Unnecessary Nested Loops

    3️⃣ Looping through an Unfiltered Array

    At the end of the video I share a few helpful insights when it comes to using the Apply to Each action in your flow.

    IN THIS VIDEO:

     How to avoid the Apply to Each action with a single item array

     How to use the item() function to access dynamic content in an array

     How to prevent unnecessary nested Apply to Each action loops

     How to use the Select action

     How to convert an array to a string with the Select action

    How to use the Filter Query field

     How to count the number of items in an array

     How to use a condition control

     How to use the concurrency control

     How to set a top count

     How to use Compose actions for troubleshooting

     

    Hope this helps!

    Thank you for the recommendation. I added the Apply to each. Still no dynamic content.

    @ryeung Hmm that's really odd. Confirming that you've selected a SharePoint site and list name?

     

    When you don't select a Site Address and List Name, the only dynamic content displayed from the Get Items action will be Body and value.

    However, when you select a Site Address and List Name, all the dynamic content will be displayed.

    Yep. Connected to a SP, which I am owner of, and the list. It is really weird.

    @ryeung Did you by chance start editing your flow in the New Designer then make a switch over to the Classic Designer at some point? If so.. you might need to create a brand new flow as the New Designer is still pretty buggy. Can you try creating a new flow?

    No, I’ve only used the classic version. I’ve tried recreating this flow multiple times with multiple browsers. I’ve never had this problem before.

    @ryeung Hmm that is so odd. Can you try something?

    In the Get Items action, limit the Top Count to a small number 3–5.

    Insert the value dynamic content into a Compose action and run a test. Can you upload a screenshot of the output? Blur out any sensitive information...  curious to see what the output is.

    No change.

    @ryeung Sorry you misunderstood the ask. This is what I was looking for. 

    creativeopinion_0-1711738063299.png

    Run a test. Review the output of the Compose action and upload a screenshot.
